    But on topic... In order to continue having RAI I have to stay with Comcast. I'm moving from Alameda to Concord and I find that DirecTV is a much cheaper choice overall, but they don't carry RAI. If memory serves, they used to... Dish Network carries it but they dropped GolTV. What a mess... I'd gladly pay for it on DTV just as much as I'd gladly pay for GolTV on Dish. Uverse and FIOS aren't available, Astound cable is a joke. I signed up with DTV and here's to hoping they'll carry it at some point. Comcast is truly an evil monopoly. I will miss Giostra Dei Gol, not to mention italian commentators are miles ahead of all of the pathetic English ones on FSC and Setanta. I won't even talk about GolTV and Ray Hudson's hysteria :)

    I thought so.....

    per wiki.......

    Chicago has one of the largest concentrations of Italian Americans in the US, with more than 500,000 living in the metropolitan area. Chicago has the third largest Italian American population in the United States, behind only New York and Philadelphia. Chicago's Italian community has historically been based along the Taylor Street and Grand Avenue corridors on the West Side of the city, there are significant Italian populations scattered throughout the city and surrounding suburbs. While the best-known Chicagoan of Italian descent is probably still Al Capone, Italian Americans have contributed to Chicago's cultural, political, civic and economic scene.

    As of the 2007 US Census American Community Survey the largest European ancestries were:

    Irish: (201,836)
    German: (200,392)
    Polish: (179,868)
    Italian: (96,599)
    English: (60,307)

    the best thing about la giostra dei gol is that they update you for every goal and show it. too bad the quality of games suck, domenica sportiva is the most boring show ive ever seen and the replays kill me the most.

    idk about banning replays, but their replays go back and forth.for offsides, they go from when the ball was hit, before and after... 700 times. shit gives me a headache and i change the channel.

    It is not being shown because FIGC sold the rights to GolTV.
