Have you enjoyed all the CONCACAF Champions League action involving the three American teams -- San Jose Earthquakes, Sporting Kansas City, and LA Galaxy -- left in the bracket all playing clubs from Mexico?
Odds are your answer is probably no unless you are one of the very few lucky enough to have Fox Sports 2 and Fox Soccer Plus (the channels the games have been on) or stupid enough to pay the high price of Fox Soccer 2 Go.
Whose cable system gets Fox Sports 2??? And if your satellite provider has it, can you find this obscure channel?
Making matters worse, the spotty Mexican coverage has been on Galavision, a channel most cable companies such as Comcast have under the Spanish package, which is un monton de dinero.
The inability for most Americans to watch our own version of the Champions League exemplifies one more way that the shutdown of Fox Soccer Channel has been a huge loss.
It's great that ESPN now has a soccer program stuck in an afternoon slot during the week, but nothing has replaced the nightly one-hour soccer festivals that were Fox Soccer News (previously Fox Soccer Report) on the Fox Soccer Channel.
Those CONCACAF Champions League games are great to watch. Too bad the only way to watch the games now for most Americans is to watch a Twitter feed.
