Will the USA vs Uruguay matches be on TV?

Anyone heard if either match between USA and Uruguay will be on TV in the States? Either ESPN or Setanta? Doubt it will be but I still have hopes.

I've asked and heard the following..............

"we're working on it"

The USA home game will probably be an internet broadcast. The game in South America will need a minor miracle to be on the box.

Thanks for the reply. Who did you ask? USA Rugby or someone at ESPN or Setanta? I hope someone will air the match on Wednesday but with ESPN classic showing USA soccer and ESPN2 showing Greece vs Ukraine I just can't see ESPN putting anymore "international" sports on that day. But here's to hoping, right? Thanks.

Better than nothing. Hopefully a good crowd shows up as well.

Willbur - I emailed USA rugby.

THanks for the link. The last online game was an absolute disaster. Both in terms of the quality of the video and the USA game on the field.

This has been a number of weeks in the works and should be much better.
