I really am worried that when Donovan breaks Cunningham's all time goals record, nobody at ESPN or FS1 will know about it.

Yeah and even when you have Direct Kick on DirecTV, I can't watch my FC Dallas team because Time Warner has exclusive television rights to a certain amount of games per season and it gets blacked out.

Yeah in a perfect world you would see atleast 3 or 4 games on national tv. I just hope the Fox deal next season is good. I think the right time to air the games is right after the games in Europe end. NBC had the right idea to air the game right after the last EPL game.

If you have DirecTV you can watch the Portland and Philly game as well.

I got to watch the Dynamo on directv this time. Not sure how long that will last. But it's probably worth it for Mero but the MLS package. Be cheaper than going to a bar.

Last year they didn't black out games shown on CSNH because of its lack of coverage and I was told they will do the same this season.

pretty sure that this year you don't get blacked out on DK due to the TWC deal.
At least that's how I read it on the FCD Big Soccer forums.

*edit*
just saw that you are in Grapevine.
I guess that counts as Dallas TWC territory?
reading those forums, it seems that if you dropped DK for MLSLive you would be able to get everything you want.
You'd just have to hook up your computer to your TV when streaming I guess.
FWIW I've had MLS Live in the past and its a pretty good deal. I feel like the first year I had it the price was only $20. I think that has gone up to $60 or $70 at this point though.

Yeah, I'll probably end up getting MLS Live. Looks like a pretty cool deal.
