ESPN3.com will also give you multiple language feeds, closed captioning, ability to go directly to key plays, picture in picture, fantasy sports, and chat...among other things. Just sayin'

And you don't need to have just Comcast

Re: The Official 2010 FIFA World Cup Thread

im at work so i am on the company's provider. whatver that is.

the cbs sports ends up taking you to the univision site. the commentary is in spanish, which is fine. makes me feel bad about all the spanish i have already forgotten since college.

south africa did a fine job in that draw. they played better than i would have expected.

Re: The Official 2010 FIFA World Cup Thread

That's what we have here at work (Comcast Business), so that's why I mentioned it. However, for most of the match, I had no sound. If I wanted to hear commentary, I had to refresh the browser.

Nice opening match, 1-1 draw. Give South Africa a bit of life and pressure Mexico into putting on better matches going forward.

On the linear network? We don't have Spanish language rights. We have Portuguese language rights on ESPN Deportes, and English, Arabic, Portuguese, Korean, and German on ESPN3.com

Agreed all around...and I will dance if Ivory Coast beats Brazil.

Yay for the World Cup! Luckily it is not in Korea, so no getting up at 5 AM to watch matches.

Re: The Official 2010 FIFA World Cup Thread

I'm a big soccer fan and I love the World Cup. U.S. and Argentina are my teams. I almost got killed in 2002 for rooting for the US when we beat Mexico. I was living in Mexico City and watched it in a crowd of about 500 mexicans at a restaurant.

South Africa looked good in the second half once they calmed down. Mexico was technically strong, but just couldn't convert. I think they'll settle down and do well in their next two games. Shame. I love Mexico and the mexican people, but I hate their soccer team.

Why did they decide to hold the World Cup in a bee hive? That seems unfair to people who are allergic to bees.

That's crazy. The U.S. and Argentina are my two favorite teams as well. I guess great minds think alike.

True, true.

Game's about to start. Wish I were at home watching and not at work, but the live stream isn't too bad.

Yes, British soccer condescension is so annoying. They must be stomped.
