Just curious?

I'm watching the NFL on espn america, so there's a lot of pre-game analysis and stuff to watch.

same here

They show it at SAT1, a free TV station, too. But from my experiences in the past, those stations hire "experts", and you have to deal with a lot of bullshit told. Remembering Franzi van Almsick miying Football and Soccer rules

So ESPN is the choice

The only way to watch NFL with commentators who know what they are talking about!

I really can´t stand the german commentators, like admin stated, it really is pathetic.

And what is about the commentaries in SPORT 1+ ? They also show the Superbowl. I receive since a couple of weeks ESPN and SPORT 1+. And the advantage of SPORT 1+ is, they have a german commentatorship.

In the UK, you can watch it live on Sky Sports (subscription satellite TV) or BBC1 (free-to-air TV).

Unfortunately we neither receive ESPN nor Sport1+ here, so we have to watch the game on the German free TV channel SAT 1, with stupid commentaries explaining the simplest football rules over and over again - but okay, it's better than nothing

And before the game we will watch the movie 'The Replacements' with Keanue Reaves and Gene Hackman on DVD as every year

They are talking bullshit, have no idea about rules, no idea about tactics. They just tell you "#12 passing to #81...." and they are talking as they would kno everything about the chess on the green, but they know NOTHING.

This van Almsick was talking about 11 meters soccer penalties

And nothing against tom nütten, and he will know lots about football, but he is in no way a commentator...

In Norway, it's shown on a standard cable channel(does that meake sense in english??), but they use the ESPN commentaries for the match. So I just have to listen to Norwegian "experts" before and after the match.
