This might be old news to some, but this is still big news.
Well, in Canada anyways.

It's bad enough, not being able to watch the top pick 10am game, now they want to show EPL on The Score? WTF is The Score? Their score update ticker is frigin annoying and what if you are watching an event, but don't want to know other results?
Sportsnet was doing amazing job covering the EPL and they had great EPL preview show, Soccer central show and midweek soccer central, now The Score is gonna ruin it. And what's up with Fox Sports World Canada? Their main sport is soccer and they can't even keep the Sunday rights for EPL?
I'm pissed at this, this will make it worse, plus i don't have The Score at home, so i would have to go to the gym or the bar to watch the games
No, the Score is an extended cable and because i have Movie Network, plus FSW that i do pay for because of EPL, i don't have the extended network unless i pay for that aswell.europa119 said:I'm pretty sure the score is part of standard cable where as you would have to pay for Fox Sports World Canada
Help? said:If Upper management of Rogers really IS tired of soccer than they are ******* stupid. Yeah, why not go show some more WORLD CUP poker or maybe put in a few more fishing shows in there, rednecks will love it.

You'd be thankful that they lasted this long broadcasting these many games if you saw the weekly ratings the sportsnet games get man. 25-30k per game.......that's beyond abysmal. And this for a sport that requires you to go two 45min halves without any commercials, man........it's a losing proposition from every which way you look at it for them, man.
They're probably drawing in the same amount of viewers for those poker/fishing shows, with infinitely more ad space and considerably less tv rights and ****, man.......so how can you blame 'em from a business point of view?
