NIU gets the first million and it's on labor day weekend. I like it. Hope we price the tickets right.

This is undoubtably true.

I noticed that too, the Toledo game quality was very poor, and I think the BG one wasn't very good either. I watched a different game though and it was fine.

I love it too, it is an awesome way of watching many interesting games that are not on the tv in our region. I use the comp dont have xbox, but i love it.

i love espn 3...addicted to that four game in one screen....but it just is not healthy for me....

Count me as a 3 fan.

Aussie Football! There's something I miss from old school ESPN.

I think it just depends where they pluck their feeds from. I think that Toledo/New Hampshire game was a BCSN production, so they are pretty much slaves to the quality of content of the parent production.

That's true. However, ESPN was supposedly using the NIU/UW game to "showcase" ESPN3. You'd think they would have used some of their own top-quality equipment to make it a better production.

I don't even know where to start. I think I am acutally more pissed off at the quality of which I had to watch this game than actaully the outcome of the game itself.

I lost sound continuously all game. The picture was horrible, (yet the commercials appeared very nice). ANd prob. the worst part, was it would come back from a commercial break after we ust reveived a kcikoff or punt, and we were punting. WTF!!!! Emails need to start pouring into our Athletic Department. ESPN I'm sure won't listen, but this was rediculous.

Hey...I couldn't agree more. It does suck. Not everyone has high speed internet and that makes a huge difference. Even running it thru the xbox you still gotta have high speed internet . It's moving NIU football coverage backwards IMO. (Psst....don't tell numberdontlie I said so. He can get a little...um... pissy ...about defending ESPN3) LOL
