are there any packages available for the tourney through TWC? all i could find was ESPN Full Court.

If there are no packages offered are there other options or do i just need to hit a bar to catch all the games?


Nevermind, found it

does any area get channels 258 & 259? i looked through several areas and none of them have it listed. do these channels become available on gameday or am I missing something?

Raleigh Area channels, you can look through several other areas but none of the ones i checked carried those channels either.

so this is only a wral thing? I guess wfmy doesn't have multiple games.

I guess I will watch the games in raleigh

WRAL has shown every game of the tournament for the past few years. they add channels in the 250's and this year will be the first that all the games will be shown in HD. gotta love living on TOBACCO ROAD.

they are all free via WRAL over-the-air or just time warner digital

i don't think they are all in HD but there is a 2nd HD channel which i find hard to believe TWC would do

Yep, CBS is doing all games in HD, but WRAL is only showing 2 at a time. I guess thats better than most everyone else is getting, but still kinda sucks. Too bad they didnt think of adding a second HD channel for all the CBSHD games this past weekend either.

yes, TWC will have these channels available once the games start....last year we were able to watch every game we wanted to watch(and some we didn't) on those channels. I'm pretty sure that every game receives coverage except during the early rounds when there are like 4 games going on at once.

WRAL has been running promos saying that this year they will broadcast every game in HD, i took that to mean that they will be adding aditional hd channels.

but after checking their website i see they are just adding the usual extra 1 HD channel

lame
