Only about 5 percent of homes in this area are going to be able to watch the Hall of Fame inductions live Sunday.

        That's because the ceremonies will be aired on ESPN Classic. Only Time Warner's digital cable subscribers get Classic. That's 45,000 of Time Warner's 330,000 total subscribers.

        A one-hour highlight show will air on ESPN2 at 1 p.m. Monday.
