Angry American Premier League Coverage

Quote:
NBC announce their coverage of the BPL in the US.
  • All 380 game will be available live.
  • 20 games on NBC, 154 on NBCSN, 22 on other NBCUniversal channels, 184 on Premier League Extra time, 10 on Telemundo, 66 on mun2.
  • What the final day of the season will look like http://imgur.com/l9L2p9a 10 games on 10 different networks
  • If you have the NBC sports channel all games will be available to you live in one way or another
  • Match of the day on NBC every Saturday (likely an American version)
  • A two-hour show Mondays with condensed Man United and City games from that weekend.
  • A two-hour show Tuesdays with condensed matches of Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal and Tottenham.
  • Games will be aired Saturday: 7 am and 10 am on NBCSN, 12:30 on NBC, Sunday: 8 am on NBCSN, 11 am on NBCSN and Telemundo. Midweek: 2:30 on NBCSN. All times ET
  • An example of NBC's sexy new studios for pre and post game coverage http://imgur.com/9QD2phz
  • Main NBC PL talent: Arlo White, Lee Dixon, Graeme Le Saux, Rebecca Lowe, Robbie Earle, Robbie Mustoe. Special contributor Gary Lineker. (This is a much better line up than Fox Sports)
  • A 30 minute goals show every Sunday
  • Online steams are free to cable customers whose companies have authentication deals. (This should improve online stream quality, legal or otherwise, for everyone)
  • Further breakdown of games on various NBC channels: six on USA Network, nine on CNBC, seven on other channels, mostly on that final Sunday. (There's going to be soccer on "E!", lol)
  • NBCSN will pick up the EPL's produced shows: Premier League World, Premier League Preview and Premier League Review.
  • Arlo White (The best MLS announcer) will be live on site for over 75 games.
  • Some new original programs coming next season that I haven't mentioned:
  • Premier League 36 -- An original series that follows EPL players for 36 hours leading up to a game.
  • Match of the Week --NBC Sports Network will re-air the best match of the weekend in its entirety Sunday night.
  • Premier League Download -- A weekly show featuring high-profile celebrity supporters and journalists discussing the Premier League.
  • Premier League Countdown -- A preview of the 2013-14 Premier League season.
  • A 10 am whip-around show is something that has been looked at. No more details yet.
  • Just to clarify if you have NBC sports network, which is in most cable packages, you can watch every Premier League game live ether online or on TV.
  • FOX SOCCER IS DEAD (thank god). The games Fox still has the rights for (Champions League) will be shown on the fox sports channel, which most people have.
  • Arlo White's color analyst will not be on the field. Lee Dixon or Graeme Le Saux will be in the commentary booth with White.
  • There will be Match of the Day, Match of the Day 2, and Match of the Week, every weekend.
  • That's all folks! The USA will now have the most thorough coverage of the English league in the world, which is a little odd...
American's doing better coverage of our league than we do, some shameful shit right there.

Because letting yanks watch live games won't affect attendances in the lower leagues.

We have ludicrous laws in this country concerning televised 3pm football.

It's 2013 ffs, we should be able to view whichever game we want.

No £#%&!er would go to Stoke vs. Villa or some shit like that if United were playing at the same time and they could watch it and at the same time flick to their game to check the score.

At least that's the theory.

Could kill lower league attendances too.

This deal just means linkage will be easy to find and top notch

Not our problem if "so called fans" of other clubs would rather watch United than there own team.
