    Great job on tonight's game, FSW. Two hours of 0-0 boredom and we get a "due to time constaints we will not cover the OT" but here's the "goal of the year" which won it.

    What total unprofessional crap, especially as they advocate no OTs during the telecast per the eurosnob broadcasters. Not a coincidence, I'm guessing. And for what are they preempting the end of the game?Taped highlights :(

    If the "soccer networks" don't respect the product, how can we ever expect the mainstream too do so??

    100% in agreement. There is/was no excuse for FSW's decision.

    Pathetic.

    It would be very childish of me to say that I posted this thing before you did.

    But since you were the one who said it to me and were wrong... :)

    Remember the days when people thought MLS should dump ESPN for Fox Sports World? Never mind that FSW isn't in nearly as many homes as ESPN, they "respect" soccer more than ESPN does.

    Heh heh heh.

    espn soccer saturday is awesome. i dont have fsw and i really dont mind. that just puts the televised games more at a premium for me, which makes it more exciting. stone, keough, and wynalda are cool.

    moves FSW














    (well someone got to say it)

    We need to let FSW know how we feel by bombarding them with emails.
    We could also go to the FSW forum and have our say. I believe some people that run FSW read stuff in that forum.

    anyway, my respect for FSW has just diminished a little bit. If a soccer-mainly-network can't show soccer, who can? Just sad to see MLS got treated this way. Sure, it was not a great game, but if you are going to show 90 minutes, why not show 10 more?
