Fox takes a lot of heat in certain quarters for not committing to high-definition TV, but it certainly can't be accused of not committing to a wide-screen digital-TV format for its football coverage.

Sunday (Nov. 24), Fox Sports was scheduled to televise two National Football League games in wide-screen/480p (progressive) -- (St. Louis vs. Washington and Green Bay vs. Tampa Bay).

Fox Sports said it will continue to do two games per week through the rest of the season.

In addition, Fox will offer up this week's Thanksgiving Day game between Washington and Dallas in wide-screen/480p.

It's generally agreed that big-ticket sports and special events show off both widescreen digital TV and HDTV to their best advantage.

I have to admit that those who cannot at this time receive the Faux digital signal are indeed missing out. It's not as good as true HDTV football, but it sure beats the heck out of analog 4:3 football.
