Are these all regular (i.e., non-HD) feeds? If not, will HD happen for next season?

[MattD]

hd would be amazing!

[chabber]

HD would be awesomeness for sure!!

In the press conference the FSN guy mentioned we could see some HD games next fall but I believe he said for select games. I don't why it would only be select games except maybe they have to bring in the HD equipment to broadcast it? If that's the case then the Bobcats just need to go ahead and outfit the arena for HD camera work so that we get HD on all games.

I have full cable channels in HD so I'm guessing the game tonight will be that way for me.

This is huge for a fan like me. Being an hour away from Charlotte in upstate SC the only games I get on tv are the MYTV games. I think there are only like 8 or 9 a year on. Having the option to watch 70 games next year is colossal.

Hopefully even if the HD games aren't on for every game, the quality will be better than the ones I get to see. Those are pretty ghetto. And there can be non-hd telecasts and non-hd shows on an hd channel, so eaton, just because you have FSN in HD doesn't mean that the game tonight will be in HD. We can all hope though.

Good job to the organization for getting this done finally. It's huge. People in the Carolinas will notice this team so much more. Now, if we can get some more #'s in the W column next year!

It is not coming in on my TV here in the Upstate of SC! What the heck is going on? Maybe it starts at 7:30 and not 7:00. O/W, I'll be very very pissed off. I can get SportsSouth, but the Braves are on tonight, not the Bobcats.

My Fox Sports South is the Best Damn Show . . . . Not the Bobcats game.

SportsSouth is a show on Joe Johnson.

Is this just the Charlotte area seeing these games on FSN South?

Same with me here in the Upstate of SC! The Braves play on SportsSouth tonight later. What the heck is going on?

I'm upstate too. Spartanburg to be precise. If I look in my TiVo guide channel 27 is listed as FSN South - Western NC. So in my eyes that is even worse. I guess we're getting Asheville's FSN region, which I would think would still be Bobcats' market.

Why can't FSN South be FSN South? I was excited about watching games on a regular basis. Maybe they'll phase us in for next season, who knows? I doubt it.

This region of SC (which was crazy about the Hornets) will still be oblivious about the Bobcats. We can't watch them on TV . . . still.

I am only 15 minutes from you, here in Boiling Springs, SC. Hey neighbor!

Well, I think we'll at least get the SportsSouth games on Ch 61 when the Braves are not on it.

I heard on WCNC news at 6 that the games on FSN were only gonna be available in NC....
