Thoughts? Fox’s Bundesliga coverage is decent but I’m hoping that ESPN airs more games per day.

Assuming that every game is available through ESPN+, this is a win.

They also picked up the rights for the 2.Bund.

ESPN+ is really good. I’m sure they’re going to jack the price up for next year though. $50/year for everything you get is a bargain and they seem to keep adding content. NBC Sports Gold is $65 and the only soccer you get is Premier League.

Oh it’s an amazing deal for sure. Aren’t they combining it with Disney+ and Hulu? 13 bucks I think. Hopefully they continue to allow them a la carte.

If it's anything like Serie A there will actually be a lot less matches on TV (ESPNnews, ESPN2 ect) and sometimes the match chosen will be an odd choice like Augsburg v Koln.

However, it's so much better overall since you can watch every match anytime you want as well online

Alexi is definitely not the worst American commentator. He was honestly the first guy to truly call out the USMNT in the lead up to the WC qualifying failure.

Okay I don’t hate Alexi either but that’s probably the worst example to cite in reasons not to hate him, he was the first to call them out because his whole schtick is to be as confrontational as possible

Hope ESPN+ offers as much content as Fox has produced for the league, I only watch a few big games from the league so I like a lot of the highlight shows pieces they do on smaller clubs. The Bundi Youtube channel should at least still be good.

Thoughts.

I get it now with my sports and info package. Soon i wont.

My first thought was the vendor is trying to make it worthwhile to take espn+.
