Who is your cable provider?
Universal Sports is also called "NBC Sports Channel", and is part of Comcast, as is NBC. It isn't available on some other cable networks, and usually costs extra.
If you have recently changed service, they may have temporarily added Universal Sports and many other channels at no cost - but in 6 - 12 months, your monthly cost may go from $35 to $120, and they will start charging extra for your boxes and remotes too. That's what we got when we recently switched to "digital cable". They said it wouldn't cost any extra, and there would be many extra channels. And they were right - at first! Maybe we should switch back and forth with another provider, like Verizon Fios, when the prices go up.
Only a few top skaters and the final events (e.g., free skate) are on NBC and Universal Sports.
I would love to find a legit (legal) cable channel provider who works for a reasonable price over the Internet connection. I only watch a few channels, like NBC, ABC, CBS, CW, Universal Sports, SyFy, Spike and BBC America. Some of those are available free over the Internet, but not others. Dish TV might work, but a house mate doesn't think satellites work.
