(1,495 posts)I've had to watch all my team's games from my computer. I miss foxsoccer. Didn't think i'd say that but I do. At least I could DVR or catch a later showing of the games they didn't show live.
BTW-. not sure if you have access to your local channels, but they are playing the chelsea/everton game on the NBC affiliate channel. You shouldn't need to watch it online..

(6,261 posts)Even though it's on NBC, rather than NBC Live Extra, they now want me to log in to NBC Live Extra which I don't have access to.
At least I can watch the review shows.

(6,261 posts)Regardless of whether they are on NBC sports or Live Extra. On the other hand, College Football or Last Night's NFL games just start playing. Very strange. Can't find any link on their website to ask about this either.

(26,642 posts)I remember how happy I was when NBC Sports won EPL rights. Now, it seems like a textbook case of "unintended consequences" -- NBC's win meant the end of Fox Soccer Channel so, instead of having a whole network devoted to soccer 24/7, showing EPL and Serie A and replaying games throughout the week, we get early weekend morning broadcasts of a handful of EPL games (not done very well), and nothing else. No chance to view a replay (for those of us on the west coast who now have to get up at 5 A.M. for some matches), no continental leagues, nothing at all for most of the week. Such a deal.

(7,774 posts)220 is the premiere match of the day and in the 400's they show every other match. Granted they are all on at the same time so you have to avoid the scores. The Mrs hates it I am in heaven. 6am CST kickoffs are early but I am happy to get up watch a match and usually a half another before anyone is up. When I had FSC or FSC+ the reds were always on the one I didn't have and I wasn't payin 30$ for both. Rebecca Lowe or Warren Barton jibberin on about "great technique"
