DCU Comcast schedule (now available)

[Cweedchop]

Will be unveiled at some point this week, according to a team source.

Stay tuned...

In fact, I'm actually suprised this question hasn't been brought up in various chats (Soccer Insider, KP on dcunited.com).

Man, we are slippin' folks. :D

Somewhat related...does anyone know if the newly reborn Finn Macs on 8th Se...now called Molly O'..somethings will be serving as a viewing location for away matches? I happened to drive down 8th last night and they have removed the paper from the windows. It looks really nice in there and appears that they're setting up the upstairs for more seating.

They remodeled the upstairs with hosting us in mind. They partnered with the Barra over the last few seasons and plan to host us again after their grand opening. Pauly is the point man on that endeavor. Keep an eye out on the Barra forum for more info.

That's great thx for the update...gonna walk by there now on the way to Eastern Market to prep for future viewings. Should be an easy destination for post-game if the new stadium is on Blue.

Maybe it's because we're conditioned to it coming out 1 to 2 weeks before the first game?

It's called Molly Malone's now. I think it opens this week (I work down the street and passed it the other day...it looks great!) I peeked in the windows, and it looks like the upstairs has been remodeled, which would be perfect for your away viewing parties.

Now that I work there, hopefully I can join you all for some viewing parties this season.

It took 13 years, but maybe people aren't so anxious about it coming out anymore because we aren't worried about there being no schedule at all anymore!

So the first two home games aren't being broadcast? Hmmm....:o

[nobletea]

So, if a team plays like crap to start the season, and nobody can see it on tv, do they still suck?

Would be simpler to just merge this with the 'DCU Comcast schedule' thread but that's a mod call.

Anyway, it looks like the radio stations themselves are unchanged this season, except for 1050 having changed its calls. I assume the SAP TV feed will be taken from the Spanish language radio.

[CHICO13]

Actually 4 out of the first 6 games are not being broadcast. WTF? :confused:

March 28 -- Wizards conflict.
April 4 -- Wizards conflict
April 11 -- Caps conflict

The Dallas game is the Open Cup play-in game. Open Cup rarely gets televised locally.

Somehow I missed that thread when I was scanning the forum titles... Mod's feel free to merge.

Yea, I guess that's one way to put it. ;)

[traversunitedfan]

Hopefully HDnet will sign a new contract with the league and a few of those games will show up on there. If they resign, i could definitely see them wanting a DC v Chicago game.

They should drop the Wizards since they suck haha. They did just have their lowest attendance at around 10k :o

This seems kind of a slap in the face. Can't they just bump our games to CSN+? I believe that is what they have done in the past.

Except that sometime in that time frame, CSN+ disappears and MASN2 starts up.

Does anyone know how much DK will cost this year for Comcrap customers?
