Diverse group here... If it's got a Chicago or Iowa connection and is shown on TV here in the U.S., I follow it. Football (NFL, CFL, college),...
Not a bad idea, but at the same time, there's nothing wrong with supporting teams in each of the Euro leagues (though my main European team is...
You're right on all accounts. Add that to the fact the U.S. players haven't mastered the acting that comes with a pseudo-foul like the Italians...
Re: ESPN 2 QUARTERFINAL 2nd leg games Re: ESPN showing only one half of the Barca game. So it was a network thing? I thought it was my...
Re: No Arsenal Champs. League on ESPN Actually, I was kind of surprised when they chose Barca-Benfica over the Arsenal game, because I always...
Let's wait for the Winter Olympics to come to Dubai first!
Nice thought on getting rid of the All-Star Game, though I did like watching this year's game against Fulham FC. Now my questions: -- Why only...
Now that's a name! Though I'm afraid of what the logo would look like. As far as a national stadium goes, the HDC does the job for the time...
I'm not sure if fans could handle their teams being relegated, and I'm not sure the league could handle certain teams going down to the second...
Worst city in the U.S. for expansion? Despite a healthy market and a growing population of ever increasing diversity (particularly among the...
One other thing about the lack of highlights for USA-Norway: If the U.S. had administered that 5-0 drubbing on someone like, say, Mexico or...
I was disappointed about the lack of PSV games shown, too, both on ESPN and FSC. I've liked Beasley since he was with the Chicago Fire. Too bad...
Have any one of you seen SportsCenter lately? They focus more on showing a ton of highlights of the NBA, hyping the latest overblown stories (Kobe...
I'm not sure what all the complaining is about. The big thing I hated about the Puma jerseys was that single stripe on the top of the left sleeve...
a 70,000 soccer stadium? Only if the Packers move to Milwaukee...
Since FSC shows so much English soccer, one broadcast I wish they would have a little bit was this fans show (the name escapes me) which features...
Yep, Whitlock is known for the race baiting. As far as his getting the gig on TV, I figure it was mainly for his work on ESPN.com's Page 2, where...
I think they would have to play somewhere. A) El Estadio Loubriel is no bigger than Principal Park in Des Moines (home to minor league AAA...
I visited Barcelona for about a week in March 2003. Staying at a hostel on La Rambla, I split my time between Barcelona and Vic, taking the...
He has a point here. Bretos does bring some enthusiasm. Could some of the odd comments he makes (i.e. stuff not related to the game being shown)...
My question is what the signing of Maxi does as far as the number of non-EU players on the squad. Aren't Spanish teams allowed only three? I...
Barca isn't that desperate for cash.
Real Salt Lake. It was the only name of the two that caused to keep pondering two hours after I found out going "Real Salt Lake?" It still doesn't...
With the signing of Eto'o, what does it mean for other non-EU players on the Barca squad. Who are the current non-EU players? Off the top of my...
It's probably been said, but heybeerman is right. Speaking as a member of the media (not in Chicago), receiving nasty e-mails from people who...
