Rodeo? YEE HAW!

Usually they show fishing/hunting.

American ESPN towards soccer.

 

[Swerve]

Yeah, it's unbelievable!!!! Which would you rather watch Man U. and Deportivo or something like cheerleading? I know that ratings have alot to do with it, but come on who do more people want to watch, a bunch of high schoolers screaming and jumping or RVN, Beckham and scholes?

I believe it varies from Tuesday to Wednesday.

As far as ESPN Deportes, are you saying it will be available in the US next year carrying 4 CL games?

If you notice, when they anounce the next match when the match your watching is over, the anouncer says its for the international audience only. Which means people who are outside of the USA can watch it.

ESPN Deportes to launch full time

September 23, 2002 (updated November 24, 2002)

Disney (NYSE: DIS) unit ESPN has announced that it will expand its Sunday night Spanish-language US cable/satellite TV service ESPN Deportes to 24 hours a day, 7 days a week effective September 7, 2003.

ESPN Deportes is expected to replace ESPN2 as the US TV outlet for the UEFA Champions League, and is expected to air AT LEAST 4 UEFA Champions League matches on each match day (doubleheaders on match Tuesdays and Wednesday usually at 2:30pm Eastern Time) starting with the 2003-2004 season.

ESPN International currently holds an option to renew its contract for the EXCLUSIVE TV rights to UEFA Champions League in all countries and territories outside Europe through May 2006 with Swiss sports marketing company TEAM Marketing AG.

ESPN International also holds an option to purchase US TV rights in English, Spanish, and Portuguese to 3 first-choice Spanish Primera Division (a.k.a. La Liga) matches each week via an agreement with Barcelona-based sports marketing agency Media Pro.

Besides the UEFA Champions League, ESPN Deportes will also offer its weekly futbol talk show Fuera del Juego, hosted by ESPN Latin America futbol play-by-play announcer Luis Omar Tapia. Tapia did play-by-play for Univision Sports during World Cup 2002.

ESPN Deportes will also air SportsCenter en Espanol, a nightly sports news and information program, with emphasis on entertainment sports consumed by US Hispanic viewers. SportsCenter en Espanol will compete against TeleFutura's Contacto Deportivo, Telemundo's Titulares Telemundo, and FOX Sports en Espanol's Score Final.

ESPN Deportes is currently available to about 13 million US TV households on Sunday nights via analog or digital cable in selected areas, as well as via DirecTV Para Todos direct broadcast satellite TV. A "DirecTV Multi-Satellite" dish capable of receiving programming from both the 101 and 119 degrees longitude orbital positions, in addition to a DirecTV satellite receiver (manufactured after 1999) capable of receiving programming from multiple satellites, are required to receive DirecTV Para Todos programming.

Hey, I live in Florida as well. I live in Tampa. Anyways, if you want FOX Sports Net, you need to have Time Warner Cable.

 

[northstar]

Coverage on cable is pretty crappy here in canada. Im not sure what the other guy was talking about. Fox sports is showing a lot of games on digital cable and on the satelite now though and I'll be getting that soon
Fox sports probably shows lots of matches in the USA too, you should check.
