I did not see the PPV broadcast on saturday. who were the announcers? and how was the quality of the broadcast?
I was disappointed in the quality of the picture it kinda looked like i was watching a 1970s soccer game. Other than that, some people complained that the announcers did not know the offside rule.
the video feed was o.k. i had no idea who the announcers were, but they did have some non-sensical cliche's that they said, one about being short from making it to the beach or something like that. All in all i can't complain too much. I was at least able to watch the game.
Picture quality was fine for me on DirecTV channel 101. Commentary from studio was bad, but really, that's what I expected. I really didn't even get upset that the commentators knew the offside rule as well as the near-side AR. I just expect the US to start with -1 goal on the road in WCQ, as all teams really do.
The picture on my TV wasnt that good, the field seemed too bright and I had to adjust the brightness on my TV. The commentators were poor so much so that I longed for Rob Stone and Wynalda to be calling the game instead. Mind you, they did have cameras inside the El Sal locker room at half time which I had not seen before.
