ESPY Awards 2015 WATCH LIVE: Joel McHale Hosts & Caitlyn Jenner Honored
Probably the only night honoring pro-athletes and figures across all major sports, the Excellence in Sports Performance Yearly Award, better known as the ESPY Awards, or ESPYs (bet you didn't know that's what they stood for eh?), airs tonight at 8 p.m. EDT on ABC.
But fans who can’t be bothered to tune in on their TVs can still find out where to watch a free live stream below.
Honoring this year's best athletic achievement (both individuals and team) and other sports-related performances, the show will be hosted by comedian/actor/TV personality Joel McHale (he of The Soup and Community fame).
It's already been announced that Caitlyn Jenner will be honored with the Arthur Ashe Courage Award (as Bruce Jenner, she was an Olympic athlete) and Cincinnati Bengals player Devon Still, on behalf of his five-year-old Leah (who's currently fighting cancer), will accept the Jimmy V Perseverance Award. So expect plenty of emotional moments and, probably, tears.
Viewers can also expect to see some of the biggest names in sports, both attending and accepting awards. Categories range from Best Play and Best Athlete (both male and female) to Best Comeback Athlete and Best Athlete with a Disability. Here's the full list of this year's nominees.

Viewers who want to tune in without a TV have a couple different options. They can watch a live stream of the the show on to ABC.com, as well as ESPN's WatchESPN (which will also include the preshow). You'll need to have a cable subscription and enter your info to watch that last one though.
For mobile devices, viewers can download the WatchESPN App, which they'll also need a cable subscription to use. It's available for both Apple and Android devices.
The 2015 ESPY Awards airs live at 8 p.m. EDT/ 7 p.m. CDT today, July 15.
