USA vs. Mexico only on telemundo and mun2


The highly anticipated World Cup Qualifier against Mexico will not be available to the vast majority of Americans in English. Apparently NBC owned Telemundo will be airing the game in spanish but would not present a reasonable price for the rights to the game in English. Sources say that ESPN offered the normal amount for this type of game and were still 3 to 4 times lower than what telemundo was demanding. I urge you as american soccer fans to become active and stuff inboxes at NBC. For your convenience I have provided these emails. brian.walker@nbcuni.com adam.freifeld@nbcuni.com Lyndsay.Iorio@nbcuni.com dick.ebersol@nbcuni.com Perkins.Miller@nbcuni.com Jeff.Zucker@nbcuni.com Do not be innapropriate simply ask that one of the most anticipated soccer matches in recent history is being hidden on an incredibly small network and that they should make the game available to everyone.
