Default Watching LIVE sporting events on internet?

Starting from next month, I will be in and out of my office on weekends. Since the football season is on its way, i would like to know if there is a website that I can use to watch LIVE football games for FREE.

I've searched on google but all i found was paying sites.

It would be illegal, and any site wouldn't last very long. I'd be interested, but I wouldn't be optimistic.

Get a slingbox. That's how I do it.

I think espn 360 has a lot of free sports internet streamed. I don't know if they will show NFL or college. I watched a lot of the last world cup on it.

ESPN might broadcast games they have the rights to, such as monday night football. Nothing else though.

Find a bunch of co-workers or friends who are in the same predicament, and chip in to pay for the streaming video.

Antenna doesn't do much good if the game is on ESPN. Slingbox is pretty inexpensive and works really well. I've had mine for two years and it's great, especially during march madness when there are a bunch of games going on while I'm at work.
