Is anyone else having trouble with their CBC feed? Very choppy, but HD and standard.

CBC feed seems fine for me on the internet. Since there is nothing to do here at work on a Saturday, I guess I'll be watching soccer all day!

Glad it's just not me and that you all understood what I meant, regardless of my typing error.

The feed seems to have improved. And just as I type that...Messi is about to take a free kick as the feed froze. Grr.

Game needs a goal. This is bus parking at a level even the special one would be proud of.

Messi is great and all but I feel like he doesn't drive or command the flow of play enough with Argentina.

Doesn't get the same service he gets at Barca and makes less of an impact.

Can't fault iran, spot on tactically but I find games where teams sit all 11 men inside their own half real boring.

Then again if I'm an Iran fan its probably heart stopping

I find it interesting. The struggle to score and defend.

And when Iran get a set piece it's interesting.

The flames from the cup run probably helped us appreciate a defensive masterpiece more.

Or maybe you are a closet Minnesota Wild or NJ Devils fan we don't know about

At least the Flames are the same league.

This would be like the Heat playing the LA Kings. Gotta survive.
