The Internet football streaming phenomenon continues this month, but not with the NFL.
On Friday, the CFL announced that all postseason games, including the Grey Cup, will stream at no charge via YouTube.
“This is an important step forward as we look to expand our global reach,” CFL Commissioner Jeffrey L. Orridge said. “This makes our biggest game and one of our country’s cultural milestones available to Canadian expatriates and sports fans in general in almost every corner of the globe.”
The stream will reach 150 countries. Among those countries won’t be the United States; ESPN has the exclusive TV rights. The stream, based on the global chart provided by the CFL, primarily encompasses Africa, Europe, and most of Asia, with the exception of China -- where the games won’t be available at all.
So, basically, if you live in China and you want to watch the CFL postseason, it’s time to move.
