Looks like Ballack (German captain) is hurt and won't play

PPV coming on Shaw:
England vs. Mexico Ð International Friendly Ð Live from London

Japan vs. England Ð International Friendly Ð Live from Austria

Sure it is in HD, what makes you think otherwise? I just confirmed this with Shaw a minute ago.Originally posted by Jim Rome99
No World Cup in HD?
AND NOW I read this:
http://www.truthandrumours.net/2010/...-cup-coverage/
"The footy crowd has found a flaw in the CBCÕs World Cup coverage.
HereÕs what it is: The cable channel, Bold, which will function as the CBCÕs secondary World Cup carrier, is not available in high definition TV.
That, of course, wonÕt affect standard definition TV users, but it will handicap the viewing, to some degree, of the HDTV audience.
Bold, a CBC cable channel, will air live telecasts late in the first round when two games are scheduled simultaneously.
For example, on June 22, Mexico plays Uruguay at 9:45 a.m. ET. Also at that time, France plays South Africa. The CBCÕs main network, with HDTV, will air Mexico-Uruguay. Bold, without HDTV, will pick up France-South Africa.
To its credit, CBC will turn around and immediately air a repeat of France-South Africa at noon on the main channel in HDTV.
Bold will be used by the CBC primarily as a World Cup encore channel, but that also presents a bit of a problem. Fans, at work during the day without access to a personal computer or mobile devise, will see the games for the first time in the evenings.
The CBC main network will carry a Òmatch of the dayÓ in HDTV in prime time. But the remainder of the dayÕs games will be limited of Bold in SDTV. HereÕs the CBCÕs first round sked.
The World Cup tournament starts June 11 and runs for a month. The CBC will have Brenda Irving of CBC Sports and Kim Brunhuber, an author and CBC national correspondent, in South Africa to file reports.
The studio panel will consist of Jason De Vos, a former Canadian team captain who did some good work for the CBC at the Beijing Olympics; announcer Nigel Reed; Bob Lenarduzzi, another former Canadian team member, and John Collins, a former Scotland player.
CBCSports.ca also will provide analysis from CBCSports.caÕs John Molinaro; Cape Town SuperSport commentator Mark Gleason; South American soccer writer and BBC broadcaster Tim Vickery, and Madrid-based guardian.co.uk soccer columnist and commentator Sid Lowe.
The CBC will use host broadcast British announcers; the games will be streamed and also available on mobile devices."
All games on BOLD will be in crapTV and not HD. Glad to see Sid Lowe is involved, listen to him all the time on The Guardian podcast:

I heard rumours on another forum that Bold is going HD before the World Cup begins .
