    Most of the bars in Chicago are biased toward either the Premiership or Mexican TV, does anyone know where I can watch Real Madrid in Chicago?

    Good luck on that one...I used to watch games down at Cafe' Iberico (the owner is a Gallego ex-pat who loves his Depor side) but since none of the games are on TVE anymore, I haven't found a place in town carrying a regular Liga schedule...except for the leftovers on Fox Sports World.

    Let us know if you find one though. :)

    In North America, the only Real Madrid la liga telecasts are on Mexico's ESPN Latin America or ESPN Dos.

    To get ESPN Latin America and ESPN Dos, you need either Sky Mexico on Pas9 or DirecTV Latin America on G3C.

    However, if you check the footprints of these two services from these two satellites, you'll notice that Chicago is not in either footprint. Chicago is very far away from the Mexican border.

    As far as I know, the furthest north location that can receive ESPN Latin America is New York.

    Whoa! As I was typing my initial response I thought "I wonder where Rangers00 is on this subject" and lo and behold you appear. There's coincidence for you. Now if we could only move Chicago about 500 miles south...
