Hd Tv

[OumaFan]

So I finally got one of those Vizio HD TV's and got DirectTV to hook up a HD receiver today.

It looks great, I sat there and watched the food network for like twenty minutes just cause of how good it looked.

But annoyed about a couple of things.

1)I watch like only a certain amount of channels really. I watch ESPN, ESPN2, ComedyCentral, CNN, MSNBC, The Travel Channel, Fox Soccer Channel, Discovery and FX and TNT some maybe. And two of those I don't even get in HD, MSNBC and the Travel Channel which really should be in high def.

Ok fine, I should have looked that up beforehand, not a big deal.

But for anybody that watches ESPN HD what the hell are these bars down the side, its a nice picture but its a fucking narrow channel for how big my TV is. I just find it annoying for some reason. Is there something that can be done about this (it seemed like with sportscenter it wasn't like that), is it always like this?
