A few days ago I ranted about the lack of TV coverage by Sportsnet for the Mexico game. Today I eat crow and recant my rant as they finally announced (via Gerry Dobson’s blog) , that they will be carrying the game and yes, it will be live.
And finally, many of you have been wondering about the broadcast plans
for the Mexico match next week. Here’s your answer: It will be live ...

Just in case I failed to mention it here before, Sportsnet will be streaming tomorrow night’s WCQ vs. Honduras from Montreal.
As for regular TV coverage, the schedule is the typical convoluted Sportsnet mash of times and delays that requires a PhD in media studies to unravel.
The must-win for Canada game will be streamed live on Sportsnet.ca
beginning Saturday at at 8:00 p.m. ...

Okay, if you were Dale Mitchell, who would
you start between the pipes on Saturday against Honduras?
I’m serious here. I really am curious as to what a manager in his position is thinking right now. If he doesn’t go with Onstad, will ...

There is a reason that old warhorse cliche “Group of Death” was hauled out for our WC qualifying group. We are going to have to work to make it to the Hex.

No disrespect to St. Vincent & Grenadines , but the journey for Canada to the 2010 FIFA World Cup in South Africa begins Wednesday night against Jamaica.
I’m feeling nervous, in a good, excited way. Which is different than I’ve felt heading into important games in the past. I can’t wait for Wednesday, and I know I am not alone with The Voyageurs and various Toronto FC ...

6 days to go til the next round of 2010 World Cup Qualifying begins in CONCACAF with Canada taking on Jamaica at BMO in Toronto. Yesterday Dale Mitchell named the squad that will open the third round of qualifying for Canada and he is pretty well sticking to the core. And why not?
