Synchro Viewing Update

IceNetwork has announced they've reached an agreement with Universal Sports to broadcast the 2010 World Synchronized Skating Championships.... on-demand so archives will be available next week.

Still without a stream, but I found a few people to follow on twitter: @whitethenubeige and @coachkortney. Yes, 120 character tweets is all I have plus the reports from my friends. Hey Universal Sports, what is the point of getting rights to broadcast if you're not going to broadcast? On top of that, SkateBuzz and IceNetwork, why not fight for live broadcast rights instead of on-demand fluff? I'm sure there is a great reason with the ISU, but I think the best way to grow a fan base is to get out there on multiple outlets.

1 Team Finland 1
