Weren't the US Open Cup semis supposed to be shown on Fox Sportsworld?
They aren't shown on the programming guide. Did I miss something?
I was looking forward to actually seeing an Open Cup game and kept hoping the games would show up on the guide. But I guess not.

SUM/MLS either couldn't find a network that wanted the product, or SUM/MLS decided NOT to spend the money to produce the telecasts.
The last contract between US Soccer/TWI and FOX Sports Int'l expired in 2003.

Thanks.
Not exactly shocking: a decision NOT to spend money on anything involving the US Open Cup.

What a shame. That tourny could be pretty big if they actually spend a little money on it.
