Does anyone know if the Draw will be video broadcast live over the Internet? I know the official FIFA W.C. website will have it live, but I'm not sure if it will just be a text-only play-by-play, a la Gametracker? I know ESPN2 is showing it, but not sure if I'll be near a TV. Thanks...

Are you guys sure they are showing it on ESPN2.


The Spanish channel UNIVISION is showing it to live at 2.30 PM right?

Thanks for your help

There won't be live video on this site, though, right? Looks to me like it'll just be a match-tracker-type of deal.

Well it's 5.21 pm here in Europe.... and German television has been on the case all day.

Over on the Yahoo link it's just chat at the moment.

The real show starts in a little under three hours.

Then they'll do all their talking and introducing each other.... do the back-slapping and talking about the newcommers, etc that the draw itself will probably take place a little nearer the 3 and half to four hour mark from now.
