The unofficial online home for fans of the Western Michigan University Broncos. Part of Collegiate Sports Nation (CSN).

I get the feeling a lot of Super Bowl party people who are staying at home this year due to being safe about COVID will be looking at NBC/Peacock's streaming of the EPL games today before and it'll pique their interest even more.

This MC vs Liverpool game, as depleted as pool is, would draw even the most casual observer in if they've ever been near a pitch.

Young fans already are well aware how great of a sport they're not exposed to very well in this country (except for MLS and that glorified beer league).

I've very much turned my weekend mornings into watching EPL matches. Curious to see how it gets handled when NBCSN goes away.

I was concerned about that as well, but it was pointed out to me that ESPN did a good job previously. As long as Landy Cakes isn't in the booth or studio, we're good.

My guess is NBC/Comcast want to force people to get Peacock. A lot of EPL, NHL, & NASCAR going there. They also could use USA like TNT gets with some occasional sports.

I signed up for the free trial to watch Pulisic and Chelsea sat him today.
