  1. Thank you again for this service.

    For anyone interested in just those matches which are available via broadcast TV or standard cable, I hope the following condensed schedule is correct.
    .
    It is worth noting how many more interesting international matches are covered by Spanish-language TV, thanks to the Univisión family of channels, vs. the relatively few covered in English by soccer newcomer TNT. Univisión also offers a full stable of competent analysts, and generous video replays in a full one-hour postgame highlights show, “Misión Europa” on UniMás, compared to a scant half hour on TNT, of which considerably more airtime is taken up with cutesy banter, ugly sockless attire, and silly social media.
    .
    I understand that the language may be a barrier for many viewers. But you can turn on the CC (closed captioning) function to read a slightly delayed transcription and improve your Spanish soccer vocabulary. You can search for glossaries of soccer terms on the internet. You could even watch a game or two with young Hispanic players in your area, who may be a big part of the future of US soccer.

    (PS: It would be really nice if SBI would allow paragraph breaks, i.e., blank lines, in its formatting.)
