I assume they are all on the illegal sites.... so

Is there a legal way to see games in the US? I decided on my team, and it's not one that is a big name. I'm committing myself to watching until I grow attached to the players and want to know my options considering it's easier to watch a quality stream. Anything like NBA broadband exist?

There's one or two games shown on the weekend on ESPN. There might be a stream or two on espn3.com though I don't usually check that site. Other than that it's the usual batch of streaming video sites which I'm sure you're familiar with.

Are you still with Aston Villa? You need to hop on the Tottenham bandwagon while there's still room

I don't think so but look for a cable package like goal TV and that should keep you covered based on your team of choice.

Also football streams are much easier to find and high quality than NBA streams.

100% of my Arsenal streams that I find end up being in Arabic. They aren't bad though. The most infuriating thing is when you wake up at 5:00 am and can't find a good stream.

I can attest to this. Waking up at 6 on a weekend just to be listening to a Chinese commentary of a United game is not a pleasant experience.

I'm supporting Newcastle United. I thought I would go Villa for a while, but now that I am ready to settle down with one club I'm rooting for the Magpies.

Doesn't ESPN show them?

That's a good team to support by the way, lots of history, fans are brilliant and it's actually a decent place to go to, they're one of those teams and you can't like, unless you support Middlesbrough or Sunderland. Good luck to the Magpies in the upcoming season.

Ya I asked j-far this a while back but anyone know where I can find in season downloads for Villa matches? I don't care about watching after the result I just want to be able to watch more than 2 games a season.

People have problems with watching on illegal sites? If i'm not mistaken it is only illegal for those sites to provide them, not for us to watch.

but in the U.S. Fox Soccer Channel has the rights to EPL and Serie A. They show a few games on Saturdays and Sundays. I'm sure there is a way to watch the games online (legally) with a guarenteed quality stream, I will try to find it and post it here if it does in fact exist.

How are the laws in America?

I think here in Germany we're permitted to watch streams as long as they are not German. That's kinda cool because you can always find a foreign stream that also televises the Bundesliga (at least the bigger games).

There should be games on ESPN2, maybe on ESPN3.com.

But, because its an illegal site, I must advise you to not visit atdhe.net. Again, do not go there, as it's illegal, as far as I know.

There aren't gonna be any matches for non top 4-6 EPL teams though. Any other suggestions?

I'm not sure how popular Fox Soccer Channel is in other parts of the states, but in terms of premier league coverage they are the best there is.
I could not find any legal sites for EPL...I'm surprised there is none, they could profiting off it

I guess the rights to showcase the EPL on the internet cost a ton of money.

Don't go to atdhe.net because its an illegal website. I advocate that you do not go to that website, as they often have links to illegal streams, sometimes up to more than 5 per game.

Rojadirecta.com is even worse, they have links to streaming AND links to download games. Both are illegal, you should not go there.

Why boycott a stream whether its legal or illegal?

Don't care if it's legal or not. Kinda just looking for somewhere to download villa matches after they finish.

It's illegal to advocate going to those websites.

I mentioned legal because of site policy and because I can evaluate whether the quality guarantee will be worth it.
