No, bloody ESPN feed probably, hopefully not with that annoying idiot Tommy Smyth. I usually resort to muting it rather than screaming obsenities at the TV that the man knows nothing and if he mentions the "old onion bag" one more time I'll ...

sorry, either I need better mediaction or he does:)

Bah, I was hoping they might just use the england commentators. My friend said that when they buy games on pay per view thats what they do.

Oh well, I'm just glad the games on.

Yeah, PPV is usually the local european feed, so sky or whatever...a breath of fresh air over ESPN. Mere words cannot convey the loathing I have for Tommy Smyth and his ability to completely ruin a great game of footy by simply opening his gob. Even Motty would be better. Thankfully for the world cup proper its usually the beeb or ITV feed on TSN / Sportsnet.

You see that big grinning face, followed by a smiley face at the end of my post? That means I'm laughing and don't mean it in a 'nasty' way. If you are not a troll, then I apologise unreservedly for offending you (it wasn't intentional); and I welcome you aboard :)

If you ARE a troll, then you may continue to perceive it in the manner you did initially :rolleyes: :p

A little off the original topic, but as the subject of trolls has been raised, whatever happened to Seabass......I noticed they had been banned but I assume they could register again under a different name????

Apology accepted, although I see now that an apology wasn't needed.

I will remove the original post.

Thanks for the welcome :)

Weird, I can't seem to edit two of my own posts to delete them :rolleyes: Anyone know why?

Cool, I'll give my opinion on the espn commentry after the game, although I'll be taping it and watching it this evening so going to avoid all internet communication till after i have watched the game, incase anyone posts the score.
