Boo on Baku!
Will ESPN send commentators to Europe or will they do commentary from the studios in Bristol, CT? I believe John Champion will be one of the commentators. What about Ian Darke and Derek Rae?
I’m not looking forward to Adrian Healy or Taylor Twellman. I wish ESPN would use the world feed on ESPN+ I’m guessing TSN in Canada will use the world feed.
Who has Copa America 2020?
It’s possible ESPN plus and Telemundo or maybe other media might be interested in getting the Copa America next summer.
Euros in the day,Copa America at night 2020. Afcon and Gold cup 2021. Afc and bizarre new club world cup 2023. World cup 2022,final on christmas day. Cant wait. Now if they could only get rid of the international break and play those matches in the summer.
