I believe the MLB draft isn't done live.

Dave, I would do a quick google search to see what you can find. Also if you can find which television station (ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX or ESPN) showed it, you might have some better luck.

This past year, they broadcast just the first round, I believe, maybe the supplemental round too, but definately at least the first round. And that marked the first time that any portion of the draft was broadcast live.

Well Here in Aus we don't get many Draft from America, I only have the last NFL and NBA Drafts and I have seen the MLB Draft on the Net.

So I like Watching Drafts and I wanted if I can get a Copy of Someone Here of the ones I haven't seen and I don't care what sport it is from

Easiest way is to get NESN locally* or by e-bay(ing) someone would have a copy or 2 of past drafts....

* NESN is the North American Sports Network which does basically the big 4 sports outside the US ask at your local cable shop ;)

We Don't have Local Cable Shops.

Do you know how much it would cost from NESN?

EBay does not have them:(

Dave you are in AUSTRALIA any info from outside is exactly that FROM outside,here in Europe we dont get the same things as you,neither does the US & all DVDs are "coded" for specific "continents" so that copying/releases are different & can only play on THEIR zone Machines - even if you find a BMer who has the DVDs you want you couldnt play them without unformatting & re-copying ...Bit of a waste of time & effort- just copy the next draft(s) yourself using a DVD-R or get someone to do it for you ;)

Yes Dave but as I said watching a draft of 8/5 or 2 seasons ago is well "pointless" & the work involved is excessive for something that has happened - unlike a game video/DVD the drafts (all of them) are well just history & rhetoric no excitement ....but each to his own !:p

Nope you can't ;) ---- I am surprised YOU didn't know ---Videos yes DVDs no - basically it protects artists/studios from pirate copies as release dates of films vary from continent to continent ( & thus the subsequent release of the DVD).The map below shows the zones:

Dave, who would pay for shipping, $22 isn't bad for a DVD.

You can get region-free DVD players. They cost more but if you watch DVD's from different regions like I do, it's worth the money. Here's a link for a site that sells them.

I bought mine at a store (either Wal-Mart, Target or Circuit City).
