in the meantime, there are some good matches happening right now in the UEFA Champions League --

most of the time games aren't on TV in the US, but i saw a good Arsenal - Real Madrid game last night on ESPN2. more games are on spanish language ESPN/FOX Sports, but i don't think i get those.
i'm thinking about the guy i read about who set up a bunch of different satellite dishes on his house and gets numerous international channels. maybe that's a good idea.
