    I mean not being on beinsports kind of kills that Chanel. I use to have goltv and they had a bunch of leagues and qualifiers. It it was just the Portuguese and Brazilian leagues + repeat games like 2 days later of games I would have loved to watch live.

    at $100 everyone will be pirating it. I will pay $10-20 if it is 4K. I have a big tv and will be like a theater with my whole family and it will be cool. Anything more than that is a rip off but really should be part of one of the soccer channels.

    for me watching shit off Rojadirecta on a iPad isn’t the same as a 65 inch oled haha. Especially since I am use to watching 4K. It’s like did someone record this shit on a vcr recorder

    The exterior design invites jest. Give us something workable, something that respects the surroundings. Barranquilla has been getting its act together, but it shouldn't overcook. Scale back.

    Looking again at the pictures there are a lot of things that I dislike about the stadium interior:

    - Playing level Suites... those look horrible
    - Over Abondance of suites on the second level... who are going to pay for that much suites?. Not even in United States there are that many suites (with some exceptions such as Levi's and Ford stadium which both suck)
    - I am not sure about the line of sight in that stadium.. it looks off

    I like Ford, though.

    The idea with Levi's and Ford was not to increase the number of suites, but to stack them on one side so that upper level seats on the other sides would be closer to the field.

    I don't like Levi's. Nor am I thrilled with the plans for El Atanasio and El Campin. It's great that Colombia is moving forward with sporting even infrastructure, but we gotta get real here.

    Agree... Instead or building a modern stadium that last for the next 30-40 years , the plans are to put something on the old structure, but the countless drawbacks will remain.

    I love Atanasio for its history, but damn it is a shithole compared con any modern stadium. Almost any new/renovated stadium that I have visited is 100 times better than what we have now. Stadiums such as Stade Velodrome (Recently renovated) or Kazan Arena, leave anything we have here in the dust...

    There is not a stadium construction in the world that doesn't have its detractors (even in stadium addicted countries like the USA) , but damn, our stadiums are old and not well kept either.

    I don't think Colombia needs a stadium such as Tottenham's, but a modern stadium with good line of sight , nice amenities, aceptable human access , nice food shouldn't be out of the realm of imagination.

    RafaLarios: Indeed. No more silk hats on pigs; more designs that are practical and offer intimacy.

    Santa Marta, I thought, was a good start, the flooding notwithstanding.

    Colombia also needs to complete its projects, to stop half-assing. Palmira, Monteria, and Tunja come to mind.

    Good for Barranquilla and all - what is going on there is to be admired - but that project seems a little extravagant.

    3 - Palacios?
    4 - Santa?
    8 - Lozano?

    Everyone else is pretty easy to recognize

    The encouraging thing though is that we suck less when we have Davinson and Mina out there together as a CB pairing. That would help. We also know that a healthy Medina or Arias would provide both defensive and offensive reinforcement.

    There are other problems in the midfield and up top but those can be resolved too. Just a lot of soul searching between now and March.

    Still we need a lot of work to do. James is not at his usual level, as most of the midfield. Mojica and Lerma are being inconsistent and our firepower is wet.

    Our next match is against Brazil. I don't have too much hope for that game

    Nobody has a good feeling after these last two losses.

    I don't blame anyone for being pessimistic but March is a long ways away.

    Maybe we can argue in front of Conmebol that the two losses were not really losses.

    They,like Atlanta, Philadelphia, and Detroit, have too many black players. That's not fair. If you discount the goals scored by black players...it's 1-1 but we surely would have scored another
