I just read that MLB is now offering a pay service to watch baseball games live on their website. USSoccer.com should offer this service too for matches that won't be shown on normal television or systems that require satellites. I'd love to watch the Confed Cup US matches, but I don't get Galavision or Telefutra nor do I know anyone with satellite. It would be nice just to get on USsoccer.com (or really any website willing to do it), pay $5 with my credit card and watch the match over high speed internet. It's not like they would have to even put on their own program. They could just make a deal with a provider and use their feed.
Will they at least be doing that MatchTracker thing? Answered my own question... http://www.ussoccer.com/news/default.sps?iType=113 Fans can follow the USA's first match against Turkey on Thursday (June 19) live on ussoccer.com's MatchTracker, presented by Philips Electronics, starting at 1 p.m. ET.
How about yahoo premium picking it up and adding it to their MLS coverage??? That would be a good idea as well.
I really hope coverage gets better. I won't get to see the Confederation Cup games, so it's hard to be too excited about it!
Well it may come down to FIFA and selling online rights to webcast games. Would be a good idea, but when you consider the world market it becomes a tangled mess. MLS is a much simpler story.
you guys in addition to matchtracker can listen to it on www.eurosport.co.uk look on the left hand side of the site and go to live radio...it will transmite the television commentary without any picture, complete with color analysts and all.
Living in a city the size of OKC, you should be able to find a bar or restaurant with one of those channels.
Dude thanks... I saw the 'Eurosport Coverage' thread but ignored it because, like, the catalog will arrive WAY too late.
I wish ussoccer.com would show the game live because I have to wait until 7 to watch. I wish they would just show the thing live!
