Just download the free player. Install it.
http://www.sopcast.com/

Then Sunday when a game starts, click any of the sopcast links here...
http://www.myp2p.eu/NFL.htm

The player will come up and a window will open with the game (click the login as anonymous). Usually it buffers and takes a few seconds.

Just a reminder, once you have Sopcast installed, you can watch the game at Stargazers site (see sig for link). Just click on the link for "Live Game Broadcasts" There is an embedded player on that page, so if you have Sopcast installed, you can watch the game directly from the page without opening the Sopcast software. If you wish to use the Sopcast software, the channel is 8521 "Dallas Cowboys Network".

NFL network is broadcasting now, and will be up to kickoff Sun. I'll be broadcasting the the Dal/STL game early, and the Carolina/TB game late. Check it out now, so you can be ready for Sunday.

Hey Lane:

If you don't know how to download software, un-zip a file, and install it, then perhaps you should go to a local sports bar.

The quality is better. However, it's more expensive and less convenient, but at least you won't miss the game.

If you think you can do the above, then PM me and I will give you some tips. But your still going to have to do the bulk of it yourself.

Give me a shout if you want to have a go at this. :)

http://download.sopcast.com/download/SopCast.zip .

Just click this link. Then click "Open" (most likely you have the software necessary). The folder will eventually be downloaded and opened automatically. Then double-click the "Setup-SopCast" option. Follow the simple steps from their.

Once you are in Sopcast you can just click login right away. Log in as a guest and don't worry about creating an account. Once you are logged in you will notice the "Channels" tab towards the top. Just click that to display the list of channels currently online. When the game starts, all you have to do is either find the game in the list (fairly easy) or get the channel and enter it in manually in the "Address" portion of Sopcast, located at the top (above the channels tab).

Nothing complicated about it bro. Just a bunch of clicking.

Me personally I think it was more of a task to register for an account here. Than simply clicking a download icon and saving it to your computer. As for the worry over virus or spyware getting into your computer, sopcast doesn't install any. If you still need to protect your computer, I use this free antivirus spyware protection for mine. It works great. :)
