Does anyone here use it? Lately when I log in I get a 'No Content Available' message and I can't watch anything. Is it working for anyone else?

Lol. Eurosport. Isn't that just bizarre versions of football where foreigners kick square balls through fishing nets or some bollocks?
Trying to watch cycling.
All I ever seen on it was fucking cycling and skiing.
Cycling? At least when I go to NASCAR the going in circles bit is sometimes seasoned with a big crash or the sweet sound of AMERICAN MUSCLE or w/e.
Plus that girl at the TT yesterday with half her leg hanging off.

This is about all i can find.
Yeah that one was nasty. There's also the AG2R bloke who's bars just snapped and down he went last week.
Cycling > Nascar
Oval racing is ok, it's biggest drawback is that it tends to be on US telly which is like having pins jabbed into your ears and insta-cancer in both eyes. During this years Indy coverage someone literally shouted at an engineer "WHAT'S WITH ALL THE MATH(s)?"
Cycling > nothing. Whatever about it being a form of exercise, I cannot comprehend how it's classed a spectator sport.
Saying something > NASCAR is hardly something to brag about. That said, I don't think cycling - FUCKING cycling - qualifies anyway.
I could equally say that the hockey for retards that you like so much is rubbish. Different strokes and all that.
Yeah but that's only for one reason. Any field sport is infinitely better than long distance bike riding, running, walking, etc for a spectator. What actually ever fucking happens? It's all too slow looking on TV too.
Too slow for you maybe.
Was at this race, too.
Can't get the first "gif" to work but:

I agree that oval racing is fine. Open wheelers are much better than Nascar, but Nascar is fine too. Where else can you cheer for Rusty, Robby, Bobby, A.J., etc? Would be better if they didn't fiddle around with the rules so much to create DRAMA.
Most of the time, nothing happens. It is more of a 'have in the background' type of sport tbh. Or just watch the last part of the race, when things are actually 'on.' It is a bit of a bore tbh, but far from the only popular boring sport (baseball anyone?)
I went to the Daytona 500 once. One big crash but then it started raining so the race had to be cancelled. The traffic to get out was a nightmare but my father just said fuck it and just got on the opposite lane, which must have saved us at least a couple of hours. When it comes to watching live, ovals is where it's at. Circuit racing in person is quite boring tbh. The best part is going around the pits on the practice/qualifying days.Was at this race, too.
Holy shit getting out of Daytona is such a fucking nightmare after a big race. For the 500 last year they (the police who were trying to sort traffic) literally took me thru backroads 10 miles north and out of the way to get to I95. It was so bad I didn't bother going back for the July race. Took hours just to get to the interstate let alone back to Orlando.
Much prefer going to the 24 Hours if I'm honest.
Edit: I should mention that the 10 miles was literally a line of traffic and not just me cruising. It was stop and go this entire time.
Yeah I can understand watching it from that angle tbf.
The will he/won't he red carpet bike change surely perked that up a bit for the naysayers today.
It's working again. No spoiler of the TT.
Well that was great (for a TT.) Dumoulin was the obvious favorite but fuck me, didn't expect that. Shame about Dennis, he was my 2nd favorite.
I think changing bike was the better tactic. Those switchback on the TT bike must have sucked.
Roglic looked good again, he's been a beast this summer.
The best thing on Eurosport is biathlon, the stupidest sport in the world. Regardless of how fast I long-distance ski, my race outcome depends on lying down on my front at intervals and hitting five targets at an arbitrary distance with a rifle.
Cycling
Oh yes, that tackle was great.
Glorious, I hadn't seen that. There are few people more deserving of an absolute battering than those wankers who crowd the riders on mountain stages.
BSB and WSBK.
That's one thing I never understood about cycling, the lads that chase after them. I mean sure, be on TV, blah blah blah idk. Just seems dumb.
It is dumb, because these people are all thick twats who want to be the centre of attention. Watch any WWE event for this in it's purest form, the crowd constantly tries to put itself front and centre they can't just watch and appreciate.
Well, enjoy the coverage of the end of the men's road race.
Whoever tripped on that cable needs shot.
Shame that Kristoff couldn't take it. So close. It was a good race and it seems that we missed the best part of it. Oh well.
