If only i could watch this in the states

Demarcus Beasley from Chicago to somebody in England (it was 3 goals against Grenada that did the trick )

Truant, i bet a British style pub in your area is footing the pay per view cost.

I ordered one of the games at home for $20, which was steep for that game (cause it sucked).

total package on Dish is $180, which again is kind of steep, but each game from here on out is $25 each.

yeah, most of the dish packages are relatively expensive.
I can think of one or two British style pubs here, I'll probably call around...thanks Voro, hadn't thought of that.

Confirmed:
Henrik Larsson from Glasgow Celtic to FC Barcelona (2 year contract)

While I recognize hardly none of the names, I really enjoy watching soccer(football, whatever, I'm used to it being soccer.)

Anyone have a link to some schedules or something similar, perhaps with time conversions? =p I'd really like to try the idea of finding some in a local bar, as the 30 second highlights on SC just aren't enough.
