Will Summer's Resturant be showing MLS playoff games that aren't on ESPN? It would be nice to see some of those games since ESPN is not on the ball with the playoffs :(

[monster]

I have no idea about Summer's. I do know that on Columbus' Web site, they not only list the Sport TV logo, but the Shootout one as well.

I have a message out to try and get more playoff TV info.

[FlashMan]

Thanks monster.

We of course appreciate any info you can get us. At this point I have a mole at Cox Cable here in San Diego, and I'll probably be calling him tomorrow to get an update.

Rapids Front Office Sock-Puppet Drone: Hello?

Me: Yes, TV information for Wednesday?

Drone: What's going to be on TV Wednesday?

Me: Your team, the one you work for, the Rapids,
the playoff game, you know?

Drone: Oh! Ok, hold on.

4 minutes later

Drone: It's going to be on AT&T Channel 21.

Me: What network is that? (knowing full well
they didn't get Fox Rocky Mountain)(this is
masochistic fun, isn't it?)

Drone: ok, hold on again.

2 minutes later

Drone: It's the AT&T Network.

Me: AHHH, ok, thanks.

Drone: Have a good day!

+++++++

Bottom line: Rapids fans, I feel for 'ya.
Your front office could give a rats ass.

Also, where do I get this AT&T Network?

I kept waiting for the drone to say the
words "shootout" or "shootout only" which
at least would have confirmed that the MLS
employee was in the same quadrant of the
galaxy where I'm residing.

MLS owes the zealot fans; following this
league passionately is more work than joy.

The broadcast from Chicago this weekend was awful. You couldn't even hear the announcers - wait, maybe that's a good thing? I don't know since I could not hear them.

I checked Summer's website out, but their webmaster is on vaction- you'll have to give them a call to get the MLS play-off schedule from them.

This is what I got from thier website: ( http://www.summers-restaurant.com/soccer_schedule.htm )

The webmaster will be on a much-needed vacation from September 20-29.
This published schedule is up-to-date as of September 19. For up-to-date scheduling beyond
September 26th, please call the restaurant at 703-582-8278.

Updated according to official team sites:

Wednesday

KC at LA, 10:30 p.m. ET on MetroSports
Clb at SJ, 10 p.m. ET Sport TV!

Thursday

Chi at NE, 7:30 p.m. ET, ESPN2

Saturday

LA at KC, 9 p.m. ET, KCAL

Wednesday, 10/2

Chi at NE, 7:30 p.m ET, Fox Sports Chicago

Ollie is reporting all games to be televised but the teams or MLS haven't announced that.

Finally and this needs to be confirmed by MLS, but I heard that Dish will do Wednesday games in the playoffs this week unlike the rregular season so all platforms of the Shootout will get all the games.

Well, I could hear them, most of the time. It was particularly interesting to hear them comment on some replay that they were watching, but I couldn't see.

If you get AT&T cable in the Denver area check channel 21. They have shown a couple of games this way this season because of conflict with FOXRM

Qwest digital cable won't even have it, hahahhaha jokes on me!

Hopefully I can do the pay per view.

[Jeff]

Qwest? Or do you have no choice in your town?

At least match 1 in COL-DAL is on that AT&T Channel 21. Match 2 I don't give a rats ass that it's not on local TV since I'll be there. I'll worry about match 3 as soon as I know there will be one.

The Burn-Colorado series goes as follows..

wed @ Dal- AT&T 21 (use common sense people of dallas, this means shootout, though it shouldn't matter since you should be there!)

sat @ Col- KFWD 52 (thats us)

wed @ dal if nec.-dunno yet. probably AT&T 21 again or FSRM

I have not been told otehrwise, but I would wait for the official MLS announcement sometime today, I would suspect.

[monster]

Colorado-Dallas game now confirmed live tomorrow at 8:30 p.m. Eastern on AT&T Broadband. that means all four Game 1s will have local coverage. Awaiting MLS announcement about Shootout.
