ColumbusCrew: Your #Crew96 starters: Gruenebaum; Miranda, Marshall, Mendes, Williams; Birchall, Mirosevic; Meram, Gaven, Duka; Arrieta
For the Cbus peeps with TW Columbus HD, it appears that no matter what the guide says, they are actually showing the reds game on the alt channel. Speaking of the Reds, I'm not a baseball guy anymore, however, I'm pretty sure the pitcher should not have the highest Batting Average of the starters, lol.
Don't expect much closing down up top in these muggy temperatures, but Arrieta closes down McDonald the clown and he immediately gives the ball away inside the first minute
Directv direct kick is blacked out. The game is on 685-1. Picture isn't hd but looks better than "normal".
I am visiting my parents in Florida and they have Fox Sports Detroit through a "sports pack." The guide and their website lists the Crew vs. DC match, but instead I'm seeing the Angels and the White Sox MLB. ****. Good thing I get MLS Live and can plug my laptop into their TV. Unfortunately, I have to put up with the DC broadcast.
And that replay showed that Long Tan did just about the exact same thing to Birchall that Meram did to Pontius, and no foul was called...
I disagree, we hear this one a lot. I think he's better in the wide AM areas where he can go 1v1 and beat people, which he usually will do. He's a perfect threat on the left because he can easily get to the byline or cut inside. I think he'd be less effective centrally.
Ok. This road match is hd. I can actually read jersey numbers. Thats a new feature for fso. What a clust fuch with the channel selection however. We were better off with onn and no blackouts. Anyway, crew is slow and methodical as ever. We dont control games. Ever. Its just not very polish.
Evidently, these DC U players are not able to withstand momentum from a player, either that or he stepped INTO Duka to get the foul.
Long Tan seems to have our number. He was dangerous when he came in as a sub 2 weeks ago. He's trouble tonight.
My cable on all guides (tv, online, print, and contact company) says Reds/Pirates (or MLB game) on Fox Sports Ohio Main, but am actually watching Crew game. Doesn't list anything on alternative, but there is where the Reds is on. That is like it is supposed to be, but they can't get their guide right. While just down the road a couple miles down the road a friend with Time Warner they are getting Reds on Main, HD, alternate, and alternate HD. Live sports is one of the reasons most people have cable for now, it is why I have cable and you would think they would spend a little time and figure out how not to anger so many. How hard is it put one on main other on alternate and list them on the guide correctly. Maybe five minutes of their time to not anger so many. Wow.
