Exclamation ESPN2 or TELEMUNDO anyone!? Need a BIG BIG favor please!

Hello all... currently stationed in Japan and I'm a BIG BIG US soccer fan. There is a HUGE game this Sunday and It won't be televised on our local channels. (very crappy TV for servicemembers overseas, especially the "commercials") The US plays Mexico in Mexico as part of the 2006 WC qualifiers. Last time the US played Mex, in a competition game, we eliminated them from the 2002 WC, so this game is going to be WAR! especially since we shut them down 2-0

Anyway.... I would like to know if there are any kind souls out there that would tape the game for me, I will paypal you some $$ for shipping and something extra so you can buy lunch/dinner

The game airs LIVE on ESPN2 and Telemundo this sunday March 27th @ 1pm ET/10am PT

Please let me know if you are that kind soul that would like to help a fellow ABXer... Thank you very much.

Here are a couple links if you would like to read more about this match
ussoccer.com
ESPN

Hey there, I am a huge football fan as well, and I would definitely do this for you however I only have the DVR system for my cable and no VCR. I know some websites have the capabilities to stream games, did you check into this option? I am a big EPL fan as well and usually have to rely on a text only version of play by play

I hope you can work something out and go USA!

Haven't found any website that will stream the game... only the text play-by-play but that kindda sux... I'll proly be reading it anyway, but it would be nice to watch the game. Please hook me up if you can...

Sorry, the DVR system I have is for Time Warner Cable, and its basically just a TIVO box that allows you to record, pause, and playback live TV. I cannot "output" something I've recorded on it I don't think, and even if I can I do not know how to do it. Sorry for the confusion.
