    NBC owns the rights to the games so that is probably a no...they will be showing some games on channels like CNBC and MSNBC tho..

    When you say all do you mean all the women's matches too? Are they showing the Mexican women and American women?

    Swedish Women? :)

    That's not quite accurate. Telemundo is said to cover the US and Mexico w-preliminaries. But not the Swedish...

    Here's my post from the corresponding women's thread:

    -+-+-

    PLEASE HELP!

    I'm looking for a kind person who can record the matches of Group G and some quarterfinals! Preferably on DVD, but VHS is better than nothing, of course.

    In turn, I can offer matches of group F (GER,CHI,MEX), hopefully of group E (SWE,NIG,******) or play-offs. If I know in advance, I can record from Eurosport in English language, too, though I don't know much about their coverage yet.

    Just drop me a PM.

    I just noticed after looking around for a bit that I can't find a single thread or even a post about Mexico's women's team anywhere..I guess I could have missed a post but...
    There are a lot of El Tri supporters around here so it seemed weird.. I guess that kinda supports your post.. ;)

    Sure.. I was glad to see their vast improvement and wish them the best in Athens..It will be much better for the game when it's more up in the air for results when they play the USA and others..

    What are you talking about? You didn't look hard enough. Go to this link:

    https://www.bigsoccer.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=952

    Let's not clog the men's forum about futbol up with this nonsense, por favor. You can talk about the broads all you want over at that link.

    I can see my post count is going to skyrocket because of these Olympics.

    Hey, everybody, there's a TV thread in this forum listing what is being shown when and on what station. I know, because I started it and am maintaining it.

    It's up-to-date and has all the information in a clear, concise fashion. Please read it.

    (By the way, why is this thread here and entitled as it is?)

    Telemundo will be showing some women's matches.

    U.S. vs. Greece, Mexico vs. China, Mexico vs. Germany. Plus quarter, semi, and the finals.

    Is everybody happy?
