Gray, do you have cable or ESPN?

If you do, ESPN now shows 2 live games per week along with 2 delayed matches of the Italian Serie A....last week they showed Livorno-Milan, Juve-Brescia and Samp-Lazio......

I'm going to my friends' house this weekend to watch it...;)

Theoretically, you might be able to rig something up to do that -- as long as you can ensure there are no impedance mismatches in the coax cable.

But you may not realize that almost all TVs and VCRs are built "cable ready" but not "satellite ready". You need a receiver to modulate the satellite signals down into something a TV can receive (typically with the TV set to either channel 3 or 4 in the U.S.). So if you want to have different rooms in the house watching different channels, you'd need a tuner for each room to mix the signal down to each of the different TVs. The satellite providers offer receivers that can handle multiple channels -- which is a must if you want to record something while watching something else live -- but for a fee.
Thanks for the info, Swag.
