I'm not a sports junkie, but I love my American football and I play in football fantasy leagues.

obviously the time differential negates seeing any live (as it'll be very deep into the night Monday mornings in Korea)

but any ways to see them late(r)? thru any cable TV or online approach?

With the time difference and lack of NFL on TV, forget it. Some people use streaming video sites (there are some free ones) that have some of the stations that carry the games, but it's hit or miss.

I'm a big football fan as well. After a couple of years it's not that big of a deal.

that essentially re-run the best games of the week without commercial interruptions.

a friend abroad mentioned Showtime started doing something like that?

I'm sure there are torrent sites that deal in that...

In my experience sports torrent sites are pretty hard to come by.

I'd love for someone to prove me wrong, tho.

There's always the aforementioned streaming sites (channelsurfing.net is what I use) but usually the games are on at an awkward time for us here in the ROK.

I think you can pay Yahoo about $250 and get every game streamed live, though you would be watching most of the games at about 2-7am. If you don't want to stay awake that late, you can always view the game on their website for 2 or 3 days after they have finished.

Live games are very hard to come by. I could give you a couple things to try, but they're lowish quality and to me it's not worth it. I'd rather watch them in high-def a couple days later.


If you don't mind waiting for quality I'd recommend www.tenyardtorrents.com. Sign up for their forums and get links to torrents of almost every NFL game a couple days after they air.

As one poster noted, YAHOO has every single game LIVE during the regular season. It's called NFL game pass. I bought it last year. You have all the games and you can watch any of them. You can also watch them for up to three days later. I don't know why they stop the service once the playoffs begin. Stay away from all these site promising 1000s of sports channels for one low price. They are a ripoff and will charge you twenty bucks and then lead you to a free service such as TVUplayer. I learned that the hard way.
