Soccer Star Thierry Henry | If You're Not Cheating You're Not Trying

20 November, 2009

Hey, Mister! Can you give me a hand? Normally, no big deal, right? Giving a helping hand. Well, most of the time that’s exactly what we want to see from our fellow man, but when it comes to soccer, and I’m talking big time soccer, a helping hand is actually against the rules, which is why French soccer star, Thierry Henry, is pretty much the villain today in Ireland.

In extra time after regulation play, Thierry controlled the ball and not once, but twice touched the ball with his hand – the cardinal no-no in soccer – before passing it on for the game-winning goal. So obvious was the major infraction that France’s sports daily, l’Equipe, ran the headline, “Hand of God” on its cover.

There’s never a dull moment in World Cup soccer, which is why you should definitely grab (but not with your hands) a DISH Network promotion today to make sure you have all the best sports coverage from around the world, including World Cup 2010 from South Africa this coming summer! DISH Network channels always bring the best sports coverage into your home. Score the game winning goal by locking in great savings until 2011 with a great DISH Network deal.

World Cup Soccer Lineups Selected | United States And 31 Other MLS Teams Will Compete

19 November, 2009

The remaining six World Cup roster spots were filled, with some notable international teams not making the cut, including Russia and Ireland. The best match of the night was the thrilling game between Uruguay and Costa Rica, which was available on DISH Network Pay-Per-View. Even though the game ended in a 1-1 tie, there was never a moment when that score wasn’t in danger of changing. In the end the tie was enough for Uruguay to clinch the final World Cup Roster spot.

Of course you’d know all of this if you were parked in front of your TV like I was. The other thing you’d know if you haven’t been pulling a Rip Van Winkle is that DISH Network has the most satellite TV sports and soccer coverage available anywhere. Between MLS Direct Kick, the Setanta Sports, which brings you the most international matches, and exclusive Pay-Per-View offerings, you’ll catch every important soccer game from around the globe.

Satellite TV Channels Deliver Interesting And Exciting Entertainment

16 November, 2009

There are always a lot of exciting programs on satellite TV. With the great DISH Network channels it’s easy to find new shows that we haven’t watched before.

This weekend we flipped on a program called “Untamed and Uncut” on the animal planet network. There were some interesting and terrifying shows on there! They really made us think how interacting with animals can be dangerous, and people have to exercise intelligent caution when even being around different species.

A lot of us humans have a risky habit of anthropomorphizing animals that we know, but programs like “Untamed and Uncut” as well as the other programs on the Animal Planet network remind us that different species do not think, act, or react the same way human beings do! We can really learn a lot from watching DISH satellite TV and taking advanatage of the cost-saving DISH promotions!
