Description

WRITE DESCRIPTION HERE
Show episode on ESPN site. Probably does require credentials for just about ANY USA cable provider (ESPN is on probably every provider in the United States) however the error does not indicate a credential failure. It appears the URL is a new format that doesn't exactly match any of the formats the extractor knows about. Also tested leaving off the '/bucketId/35312' at the end of the URL but that did not work either.
