Im sailing next week on symphony I was on Liberty a few weeks ago and 1pm, 425pm SNF and MNF was all shown. Disembarked on Thursday but no reason to think TNF wouldn't have been shown too.

jewopaho Posted November 11, 2023 #30 Share Posted November 11, 2023 We were on the Celebrity Beyond out of FLL, and TNF was shown on ESPN2 along with the "traditonal" games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't make sense. TNF is provided by Amazon, not ESPN. What game was shown? Was it an NFL game? How long ago was it?

cruiseguy1016 Posted November 11, 2023 #32 Share Posted November 11, 2023 It seems as though ESPN is RCI's "sports" network. Somehow ESPN is able to obtain broadcast feeds from other networks. I have seen sporting events on the ship on ESPN that are broadcast by other networks. I've often wondered how they manage to do it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was on Freedom less than two weeks ago the Thursday night game (Steelers - Titans) was shown on ESPN 2 on the ship. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OP - the bottom line is, even though the games are broadcast on any number of networks in the U.S, you will be able to watch them on the ship.
