Don't know if it'll help or hurt MLS having to share NBC sports with the EPL.

All they have is Notre Dame football, a few golf tournaments, Sunday Night Football, the NHL if it comes back on...EPL would be killer.

Has it hurt when both have been on ESPN?

meant more of a sad day for FSC and the nostalgia that goes along with watching shitty quality matches dating back to the early 2000s when it was still fox sports world.

if they get games on nbc it won't be such a bad deal. and fricking bring back nba on nbc, damn it.

Ah, I hear you. That was back when they showed rugby too. I introduced my old college roommates to an array of International supports, mostly against their will. They're better for it now.

i used to stay up and watch the late FSW report show with bobbeh mcmahon and the chick with glasses. they'd always show aussie rules or rugby at like 3 am

that's back when they showed the brasileiro, spl and a shite ton of bundesliga in addition to the actual good epl matches and not bolton vs qpr.

Any idea how long Goltv has the rights to the bundesliga? Would love if FSC picked them up to fill the vacancy

I think 2015. Would seem to be good for the Bundesliga if they could get some other deal. . Haven't been watching since Direct TV dropped GolTV.
