Watch football live?
hxxp://www.watch-football-live.com/default.asp
Has anybody heard of or used this service. I'm a Steeler fan, girlfriend is Packer fan. We live in Minneapolis. She just moved out here and I thought this would be a good way to watch games. They say it's 100% legal. I don't really doubt that. However, what's the catch? Are they streaming or downloaded games? It appears that they might be streaming. I don't get how they can do that if Direct TV has the Sunday Ticket. It's 27 dollars for a lifetime subscription. FAQ is vanilla and doesn't really explain the details of the process. 7 day guarantee. Thoughts?

There's a few old threads about these kind of services. I've never really gotten it to work consistently, it's kind of tedious. The games might cut out, the video might be choppy, etc.
Definitely not legal. |

I remember a foreign service a few years ago that somebody was touting around here.
Seems too good to be true. I guess I'm torn on buying radio subscription or this for a season...just to try it out. Thanks for the advice.

Yeah, i would love to find something even if not on the up n' to stick to the NFL and direct TV but............. I would be ery,very leery of loading any of these "companies" web applications or other software untility on any PC I own. It is guaranteed to have tons of spyware and very possibly some rootkit or keyloggers to collect bank account numbers or credit cards. I would be very cautious with these. |

Umm i have been using streamtv website for like 3 years and only had issues a few times with a game being cut etc, but they have all the nfl games live to chose from. About downloading stuff, you only need winamp to watch the streams, and winamp is a known media player that doesn't install any kind of crap. I'm happy with their service as there is no other way for me in Spain to watch the Dolphins every week (here we have 5 random games per week, 3 live, 2 recorded). Also there is zero coverage of college football in Spain and i can watch tons of games in streamtv too.

Who gives a shit if it's legal? Like the NFL is cash strapped or something.
EDIT: Meant to say...who gives a shit, besides JonInMiddleGA

We talked about it in the past here in fofc, do a search for references, but i have been using it for like 3 or 4 years with zero issues for every USA sport, nfl, ncaa, mlb, nba, nhl and they also have dedicated mma and wrestling channels and also soccer from European leagues. It's a paid subscription but like $5 per month or so. Site is streamtvnow.tv

I've been using NFL Game Pass for 2 years now. Top notch quality, 210 $ for the season pass (all the games, up to 48 hours after the game is played). Unfortunately, it's not available in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Bahamas, Bermuda, Antigua, and U.S. Territories.

After registering with StreamTVNow look in the control panel under Paid Subscriptions and you should see their list. I use the PPV Subscription 135 Days for $20.00
