Chris,
The photo on my comments is about 30 years old. Although I wished I still looked like that, how do I change it for reality?

Hi Matthew, NBC doesn’t make a determination of which matches they’ll include on the NBC Sports App until after the matches have finished. They’re not allowed to make all 10 available per the Premier League. So they typically end up making the best 9 matches available.

As an update to the previous answer, NBC Sports has recently started posting the list of games that will be made available on replay (after the games conclude) on their Twitter account at https://twitter.com/nbcsportsapp
