I'm up in Northern Ontario with a really flakey net connection. I've been able to catch most of the recent games via streaming, but I had to use TheFan for the last game vs. Puerto Rico. I figured I'd do that again tonight, but I just went there for the pregame show and I got baseball. :(:(

I thought they'd be broadcasting ALL TFC games.

I was sure I'd picked up the home game vs PR on it. Maybe all the northern fresh air is confusing me. Will try to get a link to work at any rate...
The local small pub is showing the baseball game. :facepalm:

I think you did. Of course, it was a home game so they didn't have to send anyone on the road. Minimal costs.

PR is a bit more expensive for a shoe string radio broadcast. Heck, Gol didn't even send Jason and Luke to PR. They're calling the match from the studio.

That said, if I were the Fan, I'd have busted my butt to arrange to simulcast the Gol audio for people who can't get Gol.

Fortunately you have these options I've lifted from the other thread:

The Fan basically only broadcast TFC games when they dont conflict with the Jays.

Baseball always trumps soccer over here.

Its frustrating but we're still just breaking out from fringe sport territory so unfortunately this is going to be it for the foreseeable future.
