STARTERSJust 3 days ago I was singing a beautiful song about how great the satellite company DirectTV was, carrying all 16 Champions League games this week LIVE. Well I set my DVR and headed off to work yesterday excited to get back home and watch Inter Milan face Barcelona. When I finally settled in and cranked up the TV set what did I get? Children's cartoons. 2 1/2 hours worth. Where was my game. Only the satellite waves know. Boo creepy DirectTV, you owe me one!dNHuge news of the day in American soccer is that the Columbus Crew went down to Costa Rica last night and beat Saprissa 0-1. That is the very first time an American team from the league or the national team has pulled this one off! (And it's a hell of a lot better than their 5-0 pasting at the hands of Cruz Azul in Mexico City a few weeks back.)dNMike Petke, centerback for the New York Red Bulls, uses his column at ESPN Soccernet to Remember 9/11.UEFA CHAMPIONS LEAGUEMatchday 1-Tue Sep 15Juventus 1-1 Bordeaux - Juv goal by Vincenzo Iaquinta.
