krow Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 Got any live streams? As NBC has it, but restricted to full subscribers. CBC has it also, but no Canadian VPN working. Where I am, is nowhere to be broadcasted. Any place where I can see it must be provided with links i think deadspin had a post on watching the opening online you could google. might give you some options.
