HDTV made 'em a Sports Fan

During most of recent history, I have never watch much sports. I really mean it. When everyone at the watercooler was talking about "The Game" I had to have the best joke off the Internet to counter my entire lack of knowledge of what game - even what sport - they were talking about.
My HDTV, plus being too cheap to buy cable TV, changed all that.
The best free content on Over-the-Air HDTV in my opinion, hands down, is football, baseball and basketball in High Definition.
No subscription fees, no cable bill, just my $19.99 RCA antenna properly aimed.
It reminds me of sneaking down to the field during an Eagles - Cowboys game in the late seventies and seeing the faces of the players, some pain, some blood, their breath in the freezing Philadelphia air.
Everyone who knows me should be shocked to find I'm watching the Steelers at Baltimore instead of something Science Fiction right now..... $
