Bundesliga

Sportsnetworld has Bundesliga now.

Just so if anyone in Canada was thinking about getting it.

I figured they would have to do something, their choice of the premier game is usually the worst of the day. I suspect a lot of people have cancelled the channel and they must be hurting in the pocket book

It was indeed ridiculous.  Premium price, Giant Tiger selection.  

I've had it since it took over from Setanta, but decided to not bother this season.  If I miss any Arse matches because they are on SNworld ... I'll just download them later.

Setanta was tits, and was sad when it became SNW.

If beIN carried EPL - they would probably take over.

I'm a big fan. Even though I bend over every month and let Rogers take my $14.99.

I follow Rugby so it's a no brainier for me. Now that Bundesliga is on it it's even better.

Anyway, Bayern starts off their title defence with a thrashing.

Bastard!  I was going to watch this later ..................... na, I wasn't.  

Still playing catch up with a couple fixtures from last week.  PVR was busy and we've been on the vacance up at the lake.  I hate camping.

Rogers has a new Sports Pack that lets you pick a pay channel and includes it at no charge. I picked WORLD. I guess you could get beIN...

Don't forget they also have the League Cup games on World plus they will have the odd worth watching monday game.

Watched a couple games yesterday. Leverkusen - Hoffenheim and Schalke - Werder.

leverkusen look good. Brandt, Mehmedi and Bellarabi all looked good for Leverkusen. Tah looked good as well. They have some good youngsters in there.

Do you have a link to that or more details. I see they have a new bundles offer but can't find the info on the new sports pack.

Shitty, we don't get Rogers here.  Choose either the government conglomerate of watch what we tell you - or a ma and pa type cable company that focuses solely on CFL / NHL.  

Both are premium price, of course.

It's called "extra sports" and I just switched to it.  

That's actually a good thing you get that message busby. It's trying to stop spammers from joining.

Not sure if the extra sports package would apply to us. Our situation with Rodgers is still up in the air. We were with a company called Mountain cable for almost 30 years, they were bought out by Shaw and a year later Rodgers bought out Shaw. Both Shaw and now Rodgers have allowed use to keep our original deal with Mountain cable. I don't have any sport packages with Rodgers we have one package about their basic, which gives me all the TSN channels, Sportsnet One, Rogers Sports net (all 4 of them) sportsnet 360. I was paying $15 a month for World but dropped it since I hardly watched it. Our deal with Rodgers is due to change over to Rodgers prices come January so all my change.

BUSTed.

My laptop died and I just got a tablet for the first time and for somebody who has never had a cell phone, it is leap in technology. I am just realising it has auto correct. It must not like Rogers.

It's hilarious either way. What a man.

Bayern slaughter Dortmund 5-1.

I wonder if Bayern can secure a title by the end of January. Heck, end of 2015.

You wonder if having the league wrapped up by February when the champions league is out of the group stages, will hinder their European campaign?  Hard to keep sharp for a Chapions league game evey two weeks when nobody is pushing you domestically.

I think it's perfect. They can plan for CL games all week, and try new tactics, new players, different players in different positions, etc. in their league games, not caring if they win or lose, and they'll still win 9 out of 10 of them. All the while keeping them fit, and focused for the game that really matters that week.
