An earlier post on this blog about FSC moving on DirecTV prompted a comment today:

Could this be a possible lead in for FSC HD? Channel 617 and 617 have been cleared. Maybe there is a football god.
Well, don’t go getting baptized yet.
While HD is coming eventually, it’s safe to say that FSC, which really has three homes — L.A. for admin, Winnipeg for the Report and Europe for most of its content, will have to go through more hoops than a normal network to make the move to HD.
Also, remember that while much of FSC’s matches come from Sky, the timetable for Europe to switch to all digital lasts until 2012.
So while it’s great to watch matches in HD (I actually missed the Community Shield for the U.S. Netherlands match), it’s going to be years, not months, before we get all of our football in high-def.
