Terribly blurry picture. Usually it’s me, but I just cleaned my glasses.

Next challenge for Fox... hire some people who actually watch what the refs call instead of trying to make calls on their own.
I think Dave Sims did a little wake and bake in his hotel room this morning. Sometimes I'm asking if he's watching the same game I am.

Hulu on Apple TV is pretty good except there seems to be a yellowish tint to the picture

My picture on FIOS cable here in Pgh seemed perfectly fine. And I didn't even pour a drink until the last 10 minutes.

I thought it was pretty good today. I think the quality on FS2 varies by your location. I’ve definitely been disappointed before, but mine was good today.

Anything is better than the football broadcasts in CBSSN. Wow, those are rough.

It was very weird watching on Optimum and the picture being awful and monitoring the stream record on my computer via YTTV that was totally fine. Makes 0 sense.

For some reason Optimum DVR for FS2 only offers recording in SD, and not HD like everything else.

It's because Optimum gives FS2 less bandwidth than other channels.

DirecTV was fine in South Carolina and I DVR-ed it because mid-70's and blue sky drew me out to a car show...........

I didn't know who was doing color commentary, but he sounded like Bilas. That's not a bad thing IMO.

I always have issues with FS2 on Comcast but I also have DirecTV and the picture is much better.

Except he called DC ”Clinging” the entire broadcast.

The commercials are even worse
I noted that during a lot of breaks, they didn't even go to commercial. Figured that they couldn't sell a lot of spots for this matchup on this network.

When I tuned in on optimum for FS2 it said "Channel not available" I fortunately have YTTV and saw it there clearly. I rebooted the optimum box and it came on, and yes blurry picture. Thank you for explaining it Marat!
