ESPN doing two great things for soccer in one week!? Must be June (with few other sport goings-on), but hey, I'll take it.
They made this for ESPN rivalry week - first thing popping up on ESPNFC page right now. The animation in this is great (I really miss old video games) and I found it very funny:

And this is great news, seeing as (I believe) they've only ever televised the USOC final before. They're broadcasting the Cinci-Chicago USOC (round of 16) game on ESPN 2 - Wednesday (June 28 at 8pm ET).

Looks like ESPN is getting on the underdog train for Cinci... maybe Chicago should roll over so ESPN keeps airing more games... And I wonder how much say ESPN has in who the next expansion teams are........
