I'm sure Dustin will pitch in with his much more complete post - Here's my look at the DirecTV guide for the next three days: (Times are EDT, channels are DTV) Friday May 2nd 11:00p-01:00a 613 FSW Portland Timbers at Seattle Sounders Saturday May 3rd 04:00p-06:00p 209 ES2 San Jose Earthquakes at New England Revolution 04:00p-06:00p 255 PAX New York Power at Philadelphia Charge 06:00p-06:30p 621 MSG Metro Soccer Report 07:05p-07:30p 621 MSG MetroStars Gamenight 07:30p-09:30p 425 FSE Dallas Burn at DC United 07:30p-10:00p 613 FSW Dallas Burn at DC United 07:30p-09:30p 621 MSG Colorado Rapids at MetroStars 07:30p-09:30p 629 CSN Dallas Burn at DC United 07:30p-09:30p 645 FRM Colorado Rapids at MetroStars 07:30p-09:30p 794 MLS Dallas Burn at DC United 07:30p-09:30p 795 MLS Colorado Rapids at MetroStars 08:00p-10:00p 199 HDN Columbus Crew at Kansas City Wizards 08:00p-10:00p 637 FOH Columbus Crew at Kansas City Wizards 08:00p-10:00p 638 FCN Columbus Crew at Kansas City Wizards 08:00p-10:00p 796 MLS Columbus Crew at Kansas City Wizards 10:00p-12:00a xxx CSS San Jose CyberRays at Atlanta Beat (tape delay, non DTV) Sunday May 4th 12:00a-01:00a 613 FSW MLS Wrap 12:00a-02:00a 621 MSG Colorado Rapids at MetroStars (repeat) 03:00a-05:00a 621 MSG Colorado Rapids at MetroStars (repeat) 09:00a-09:30a 621 MSG Metro Soccer Report (repeat) 10:30a-11:30a 613 FSW MLS Wrap (repeat) 04:30p-06:30p 199 HDN Columbus Crew at Kansas City Wizards (repeat) 09:00p-10:00p 613 FSW MLS Wrap (repeat) Monday May 5th 01:00a-02:00a 613 FSW MLS Wrap (repeat) Tuesday May 6th 05:00p-07:00p 425 FSE Dallas Burn at DC United (repeat) Notes: There doesn't appear to be any broadcast of the San Diego Spirit at Boston Breakers match, and the tape delay feed of the San Jose CyberRays at Atlanta Beat is on Comcast Sports Southeast, which is not on DirecTV.
And it's also worth noting that rebroadcasts aren't tape delayed. So if you've not got the shootout, you can still get 3 of 4 games between espn2, FSW, and MSG's late night reairs.
Its clear the Metros get the best TV coverage in MLS - Metro Soccer Report, 1/2 hour pre-game & the match, too. Watched MSR last night & its really a great fast-paced show. MLS highlights, Euro/world highlights, WUSA. Makes me think about the MLS wrap on FSW. With an hour to kill, it wouldn't bother me at all to see some key highlights from around the world. Perhaps a focus on Yanks Abroad.
they sure could do a lot more within 1 hour, i suggested bringing in guests to discuss the games in depth, slow motion replays, controversial calls, different views and new regarding MLS and anything associated with it. For now i am thankful they have this show, and i am sure they will improve , well i hope so. Andy, thanks for that great list, i have printed it out for myself.
