This is a complete shot in the dark, but no one would happen to know how a fan from the United States would be able to watch a game on RogersTV. I know that it's impossible on normal cable TV ... and they don't broadcast online ... but any chance there's a slingbox option or some other way to follow the game online?

Just wondering.

PDL Playoffs
Ocean City Barons at Ottawa Fury
Saturday, July 25 - 7 p.m. EST (Broadcast is on a 1-hour tape delay, so it begins at 8 p.m.)
Algonquin College Soccer Complex

Let me know if you have any suggestions.

No idea sorry - I live in Ottawa, but outside the RogersTV area and have never managed to find a way. At least I could go see the game live.

Did you manage to see the game?

Nope, just had to settle for text message updates. Heard it was a great game, no matter who you were rooting for.

It was a really good game, easily the best PDL game I saw this season. That Ocean City keeper played a blinder.

Tunde Ogunbiyi is the goalkeeper ... I might be a homer, but I think he's got a bright future.

He's going to be a junior at Boston College (after transferring from Univ. of New Hampshire) ... hasn't played a competitive game (outside of the PDL) since high school because he was a backup his first 2 years at UNH ... but was called into the Nigerian Olympic team camp (the team that won the silver medal). He didn't make the final roster, but how many players do you know who get a shot at the Olympic team after not playing for 2 years? He's sort of a trimmer Zach Thornton.

Here's a couple stories on him:
