Watching on FRS since TWC and ESPN3 can't ever seem to get their [Mark May] together. (Evidently, my Road Runner email address doesn't exist anymore....)

ESPN3 is tricky with what providers get access. I used to not be able to use it until one day after trying numerous times, it just started letting me in & I've been using it ever since. Pretty useful feature because it has the best possible stream for some of the games I want to watch as well as English commentary.

Lorient up 1-0 on PSG. So much for that little scare for Montpellier. Still quite a bit of time in France.

Yeah, I've had access in the past, but for whatever reason Time Warner is never content with what works.. And at some point in the last 6-8 months, they did something with their email servers and now my email address doesn't exist. :lol: Oh well, I really hate ESPN and would rather support the illegal streams over ESPN.

Preaching to the choir. I've been streaming for years & got nothing but love for those overseas providing me with the blessed opportunities to watch. I should've known better than to praise ESPN3 as my stream has turned into scrambled porn.

Well Montpellier just equalized & PSG fans have apparently declared war on Lorient as they're lighting off some sort of fireworks in the crowd resulting in a stoppage of play.

Eden Hazard has a first half hat-trick in his last game for Lille. Talk about a fitting end to his time in France. I read somewhere that he's supposed to announce where he intends to play next season right after the game...Not sure whether or not it's true, but there could potentially be some big news coming out of France this afternoon.

I think he's announcing after the match as Lille are sending him off with a Mimi ceremony.

Sounds about right. His first career Ligue 1 hat-trick in his final Ligue 1 game. Not to shabby. I can't dig up anything to conclusive as to where He's going to end up. It looked certain to be City a few days ago, but now there's a bunch of rumors circulating it's going to be United. It's turned into 'the recruiting saga' that we're all to familiar with in college football.

Whoever gets Hazard, the other gets Sneijder. IMO, I still say it's City getting Hazard, and Sneijder to United.

There's a strong sense going around that it's going to be United for Hazard. Strange, as I thought he was all City up until today. I thought the same thing about Sneijder, but he doesn't seem to eager to leave the last time he spoke to the media. I figured missing out on the Champions League next season would get him out the door after United tried to get him last summer. I don't think he's even trying think about this until Euro is over in July.

I think he's trying to earn his money by way of the Euro's. What better way to generate interest in a player than International Competition?

Look at Diego Forlan. His last real success was the last World Cup.

Pastore ties it up for PSG, 1-1. His header hit the post, then deflected off his own man back to him for the tap in. The Montpellier game is currently delayed due to, you guessed it, unruly fans throwing [Mark May] onto the field. So much for that 'no competitive advantage' with all games being played simultaneously.

Apparently the ref took players from both teams off the field as Auxerre fans were heaving anything they could find onto the field. Gotta love this sport.

Cavani tucks away a 63rd minute PK to make it 1-0 Napoli! Come on Napoli! Pull it off!!!

Is it me or does that game sound like WW3 ? I keep hearing explosions every few seconds & it just erupted ten fold after that goal. And yes, that goal net being the Italian flag is awesome.
