    Sirius radio NFL channels and DirectTV Sunday ticket for football people.

    Sirius radio MLB channels and DirectTV MLB package for baseball people.

    Sirius radio Nascar channel and Dish Network Nascar package for Nascar people.

    Sirius NHL Home Ice channel and NHL Center Ice on DirectTV for hockey people.

    Each of these also have official and unofficial methods of streaming online for computers, iPads, smartphones - but you will be limited by signal and bandwidth on your device depending on where you are. Here is a very good article on streaming sports as a place to start: http://lifehacker.com/5839607/how-can-i-watch-nearly-any-sports-game-online

    And finally, no there isn't a free ride for all games, all the time. There are ways using over-the-air TV antennas to pick up some local and national broadcasts and free FM radio for some local and national broadcasts, and free online streams for SOME games SOME of the time. So it depends on how much you want and how badly you want it on the road. Technically it is all out there - some free and some not.

    For TV, it would be ESPN Game Plan on DirectTV and for radio it would be Sirius-XM.

    On a phone you can use the free "WatchESPN" app but you have to have a participating TV service provider at home to qualify. They have some kind of deal with Comcast, DirectTV and Dish.
