stupid Sunday Ticket question

Is the sunday ticket from Direct tv just rebroadcasts of the feeds from CBS and Fox, or is it an original broadcast with different announcers. As in they work off of different cameras than the networks.

I have a stupider Sunday Ticket question for you.

Why aren't all NFL Sunday Ticket games broadcast in HD? Last week I was watching a game form my local cbs channel in HD, but when I turned it over to where the exact same game coming from the Sunday ticket Channel it was not in HD?

Forgive me if this sounds like a stupid response, but the games have a separate HD and SD channel. Were you on the HD channel? Otherwise there might've been a technical glitch that caused the problem with DirecTV.

The channel block for Sunday Ticket games are all SD. If you want HD games aside from your local networks, you have to shell out an additional $99 for the "SuperFan" package. (Or threaten to cancel and negotiate your way into getting it free as someone here has done ... don't recall who.)

2 reasons:

CBS and Fox don't broadcast every single game in HD. Also, the satelitte has a limit on it's current capacity and can only carry 5 or 6 games from each of the networks. Once D10 is finally turned on (it's been delayed again from the 9/19 date but should be on very soon), then that limitation will no longer exist.
