BBC America has a form on its web site where you can vote for programs you'd like to see added to their network. One of them includes BBC's "Match Of The Day." I wouldn't think that BBC would have the rights to show the highlights show in the U.S., but whether they do or not, […]

It's the result that Liverpool needed. A confidence boost. Two goals, and — most importantly — three points from a disappointing season thus far. Interestingly it was a midfielder who stole the headlines for Liverpool instead of a striker. Sure, Dirk Kuyt scored his first goal for the Reds but it was Xabi Alonso who […]
