Americans
\nare gearing up for Thanksgiving – turkey, getting together with family and
\nfriends … and football. But a recent Motorola survey found that more people
\nwould rather watch the big game on a high-definition TV than in person.<\/p>\n

Motorola Inc. recently commissioned a survey among more than 1,000 adults
\nnationwide and found that 45 percent would rather watch college or professional
\nfootball on a high-definition TV than watch the game in person.<\/p>\n

Only one in three respondents (or 32 percent) indicated they would rather watch
\na college or professional football game in person.<\/p>\n

“The survey results really speak to the popularity of high-definition
\nprogramming,” said Doug Means, Motorola corporate vice president and general
\nmanager, Home and Networks Mobility. “The color, the clarity and the crispness
\nof a sporting event delivered in high definition is almost like being there –
\nbut from the comfort of your own home.”<\/p>\n

The survey also found that more men than women would rather watch football on a
\nhigh definition TV than in person (51 percent of men vs. 41 percent of women). <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
