I.E Germany vs. France (or w/e) had 1.2 billion,
Mexico vs. Argentina had 1.4 billion
the Final had 3 billion etc etc

They probably all added up to 29 billion at the end...]]>Jun 9th 2006 1:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/Jun 9th 2006 1:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/Jun 9th 2006 1:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/Jun 9th 2006 1:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/Jun 9th 2006 1:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/I think all of this is very exciting and would have really liked the chance and money to go to Germany, but I grew up playing soccer and played all year round. (Indoor and out) and I do live in the USA.
So thanks Espn and ABC for airing every game. ]]>Jun 9th 2006 1:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/
In any case, I for one am pretty confident I'll find a way to not see any World Cup. So many better things to do: clip my toe nails, watch paint dry, lay on the couch and repeately toss a baseball into the air, take an inventory of my refrigerator, etc. etc.

b) what makes Football/Soccer incredible popular is the relatively simple nature of the game. Compared to our Football, Basketball, and Baseball, the rules and regs for Soccer are minimal.

c) Yes, I agree the NBA kicks FIFA right in the balls.

To defame it by comparing it to the overhyped NBA or NFL is heresy. Just look at the technology that is so far advanced in delivering the sport to almost every facet of communication - TV, HD, Cellphone, Computer screen.... >1,000 reporters and a first --RFID tickets to out the imposters and hooligans.

One Cup, One Team, One Nation....One Love.

How can you not get it?

Last week, in a TV show there was a debate about why north-americans don't like football. Basically, they said it's because you like sports with a bigger score, not a match that ends with a 3-2.

Anyway, on the tech side.
This was a big missing opportunity for spanish TVs to adopt HD. At least the lame "HD Ready" they're starting to sell (just 1366x768, not the proper 1280x720), we don't have any 1080i here, not even an HD Channel.
Almost all the world seeing it in glorious HD, or at least in anamorphic 16:9, and here we have a lame 4:3 yet ¬_¬]]>Jun 10th 2006 8:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/Jun 10th 2006 9:51PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/i like the rants guys/gals :D]]>Jun 11th 2006 10:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/Jun 12th 2006 1:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/Jun 12th 2006 2:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/Jun 13th 2006 7:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/Jun 16th 2006 8:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/http://sms.globalbulksms.com/ & http://globalwebsms.com/]]>Feb 4th 2009 5:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/http://www.engadget.com/2006/06/09/world-cup-tech-hd-mobile-and-web-tv-makes-cup-hard-to-miss/
