Is this a noon game?

Yes, this is a noon game. CBS does one game a week in High Definition (1080i) and the Vikes with a 5-0 record were selected for this week’s game.
The next scheduled HD game is the November 2 night game against the Packers on ESPNHD. Michelle really wants to have people over for that game so put it on your calendar.....Maybe we could do some magic before the game??
Also, I never knew this about the CBS/FOX coverage of football: quote: Each weekend, one of the two networks carrying NFL coverage has what is called a "doubleheader weekend." That network can show two games on that particular Sunday. The other network is only permitted to show one NFL game that week. They can show an early game or a late game. In cities where the home team is on the network with the doubleheader, the other network typically chooses to air a game on the other time slot so as not to compete directly with the home team.
If you check NFL.com, it lists which network has doubleheaders each week. A good indication is when a 3:00 game is scheduled for 3:05 instead of 3:15 - 3:05 starts usually indicate a non-doubleheader weekend.

I'll be there...
Oh wait! FUCK! ASS!
Sadly, the AFN network over here isn't even BROADCASTING the fucking 5-0 Vikes and 5-1 Broncos. They're showing Green Bay & St. Louis...fucking Packers! GO RAMS!
Have fun guys!
GO VIKES!
P.S. What's the deal with the Wild players who still haven't signed? Steve, bitch slap them!

12/20 Chiefs vs Viking is CBS high definition game (1080i). This will be the last HD game for the Vikes this year. If they make the playoffs Fox might do some ED games (480i widescreen) but that's it.
Also - if anyone is looking for a cheap smaller HD TV. Sears and amazon.com have a 26in widescreen (good for a bedroom) Samsung HDTV (1080i) for $599. Amazon also has free shipping on the unit. Nice set for the price - it was $999 a couple months ago.
