Lax Semis: Where2Watch

[Beeeej]

Anybody watching anywhere near La Saussaye, France?

Of course I'm serious.  ::help::

[Lauren '06]

And I'll be in Athens. :`-(

Aren't we sad sacks.

In the NYC area, for those who are cable not satellite people, it's nice to see Fox Sports NY picking up the ESPNU feed since Comcast hasn't come to agreement with ESPN Inc.

Agreed. So happy to see that in the release. I might have ended up with a sunburn.

I'm a satellite person (DISH), and my package doesn't include ESPNU.  Nice job, FoxNY.

Oxford, England is relatively close, right?  I don't know how I'll be watching yet, but if there's a way, I'll find it.

I may have found a way to watch in Berlin, but I'll be in Pisa until Sunday.

Much more coverage there.  LGR>::banana::::banana::::banana::

You joke, but it was like pulling teeth to find a place to watch the Everblades tourney in 2003; we had to spend $40 roundtrip on cabs to get to a place on the outskirts of town that would show it (though the trip was totally worth it, as we won that year).  Men's lacrosse - even the national semifinals - may not be much easier if you actually want a public venue, as opposed to just watching in your room.

On the other hand, these are on the Deuce, which probably increases your odds.  But I strongly recommend calling places ahead of time instead of just dropping by a Strip sportsbook and hoping for the best.

Take this for what it's worth;

Lacrosse

You Atlanta people are unbelievable, Robert. If there was a Cornell Sports Diaspora Medal of Honor, it should go to the Atlanta group.
