Just watched videotape tonight of the Comcast coverage of the UM/MSU game Saturday night. Rich Kimball was excellent, other than saying "Spartans" alot when he meant "Wolverines". The camera work was some of the best I've seen for field lacrosse. I really think ESPN could learn something from these folks who are covering lacrosse a lot more than the crews from CT.
Comcast Thumbs Up!

I have to agree with message above. Comcast did an awesome job. In fact I drove to Grand Rapids from Saginaw via some work in Mt. Pleasant, to watch that game and stay with friends. I got there around game time so I had my buddy turn the game on. We were going to relax for a minute before we headed to Forest Hills Central HS. The quality of the picture, my old coach, Kimball, commentating, and the comfort of food and beverage kept me on that couch. They are going to have to black it out for people like me. Kidding. I wish more games were televised. I will switch to Comcast when Charter releases its strangle hold here in Saginaw. Bravo for televised lacrosse and the growth of lacrosse in Michigan.

Props to Comcast for doing the game. But ESPNU and CSTV offer tons of more college games. Get the DirecTV sports pack and you are all set.
