Does anyone know if our game with Miami is televised in Canada? My brother is off to toronto for work this week and he wants to see the game.
ESPN doesn't broadcast in Canada and TSN isn't carrying the game. Anyone know of any other alternatives? He is also looking for a sports bar that could be pulling in the game. Anybody know of any places up there?
Thanks in advance.

Sounds like his best bet is online.

If he has a computer with him, he can download a program called TVU, it streams ESPN, ESPN2 and other sports channels online and it's free. Just a thought!

That's the download link, it's pretty easy to setup.

NFL/NCAA Schedule, as you can see TVU has the UT and BG games on this week.
It also shows 4 NHL games a night: a 7/7:30 game and a 10/10:30 game.
Video quality is pretty good too.
The site started this summer with the World Cup and was downloaded like 11 million times by Europeans to watch those games, and it has just expanded to every sport now.
Enjoy!

You mean they aren't showing our game on CBC?! That's a travesty!

Might also want to check ESPN360. I don't know if the simulcast all their games on there, but I've seen it before. Hell, I don't even know where to find it, but I'm sure it's linked on ESPN.com somewhere.

Yeah, its
www.espn360.com, I have searched and searched but have been unable to find a schedule for them. I guess checking on the day of the game may be the only option for 360.

Souldn't he be able to pick up a Buffalo station in Toronto? I would think so.

If he is in Toronto, shouldn't he be going to see Second City or something? At least he should find Kids In The Hall reruns on tv.

The game is only being televised on ESPN2, so a station out of Buffalo won't do him any good. He has become a true falcon fan after spending so much time tailgating with Freak this season. So I am sure he will find a way to see the game.
He may even drive a couple of hours to a location that can pull in ESPN2, watch the game and then drive back. Whats more important anyway, Work or Falcon Football, come on, no comparison there, Go Falcons!
