2015/16 Bundesliga Thread

Wolfsburg and Schalke had to settle for one point against Koln and Darmstadt respectively.

What a game between Hamburg and Stuttgart! Djourou scores the second goal of his career to win in the 89th minute.

Wow! What a crazy match. Costa makes a marvelous run with a beauty cross to Lewandowski who finishes with a world class touch. Bayern escape Hoffenheim with three points. 

I know Lewandowski is great at scoring goals, but is a little toe poke a world class touch?

I'm pretty much over Time Warner Cable right now. Last week I was having issues with a bunch of channels ("channel not available right now. try back later"). Had a guy come out and fix it on Wednesday. Worked fine for two days. Now it's not working again. No FS1, no FS2, no NBC Sports Network, and none of the "overflow" channels for the other PL games. At least they put MOTD on NBC 6. Of course, everything was working fine before soccer season started.

You should call and bitch.  Maybe you can get that package free for a month.

perhaps BVB will give Bayern a run this year

They look damn good so far.  That being said the competition today was not the best, but yeah, they have come out swinging.

They are also not in UCL, which could lead to sharper focus in the Bundesliga

Just checked the tv listings for the weekend. Two games Saturday, both on FS2. Meanwhile, on FS1, Truck Series practice and Red Bull Air Racing. No televised matches Sunday. And no Bundesliga Highlights show, which aired after week 1, but not since.

That's some pretty shitty coverage, if you ask me.

Not sure where you are looking but here is what I am seeing 

Friday: Wolfsburg-Schalke 2:30 FS1

Saturday: Stuttgart-Frankfurt 9:30 FS2; Mainz-Hannover 9:30 FSP; Bayern-Leverkusen 1230 FS2 

Sunday: Dortmund-Berlin 930 FSP; Bremen-Gladbach 1130 FSP

I saw the Friday match, but I was just referring to Saturday/Sunday. We don't get Fox Soccer Plus.

I can't imagine there's much of an audience for NASCAR Truck practice, yet that's what's going to be on the HD channel. I don't get it.

Excited for the Bayern/Leverkusen match. I'm jealous of my buddy... He flew into Munich last night and will be there in attendance at the Allianz Arena Saturday. That's on my short bucket list at the moment.

I agree there, would prefer more FS1 matches.  Will probably not get many over the next few months with football coming up.  I just hope FOX does not get BPL at some point and then Bundesliga falls in the pecking order

Gotta wonder how Götze feels about not being a starter today. I know the commentators were mentioning how he dislikes being taken out of matches and is increasingly frustrated by his playing time. 

[OnlyPantherFaninMaine]

Wow. I'm not sure anyone in the Bundesliga is going to have an answer for Douglas Costa. His pace and Müller's finishing is a great pairing
