    "BigSoccer leaves the net."


    The obvious interpretation is a downer. Is there another that makes sense?

    An entire magazine devoted to baseless speculation, harsh critiques of US Nats, and blathering eurosnobs? :)

    Just kidding. A magazine was my first thought as well, and I think it is a good idea. BS has a built in marketing list like no other, and could possibly ride out the initial inevitable losses with a magazine launch by having a fairly solid subscriber base by the time the first issue hits the stand.

    If this is the big announcement, good luck!

    AEG will present BigSoccer TV carrying games from around the world. Viewers will have their choice of audio with Jack and Ty on one feed, Max Bretos another, Cantor another, ... It is Huss's attempt to make everyone in this forum happy.

    It looks like for a week or so. Perhaps they are switching locations and whatever other logistics are involved.

    Perhaps BigSoccer will be sharing space with MLS Headquarters or operating out of a Qwest CyberCenter due to all of the sensitive material that comes around.

    If "leaves the net" is a play on "leaves the nest" then, yeah, this is good news. Some sort of expansion of BS's approach to covering soccer.
