Olympics coverage gets shittier every time.

[saraandmichael]

Do you guys have cable??

Live feed through nbcolympics was blowing my mind this afternoon.

Agreed. And can we find a way to remove the ridiculous interviews by Bob Costas & Ryan Seacrest?

I know!!!!!!!!!!! What I love about the Olympics is seeing athletes you would never see if it were not for the olympics. But I can't complain this year because I have no more cable (it's not up to me) :-( :-( :-( :-(

And what the hell is Meredith Viera wearing?

YES! Omg, it's like a referee scrubs top with 5 inch heels. WTF?

As much as I bitch about the uselessness of the iPad, I have found that "live extra" Olympics app to be quite useful. I watched a buch of live programming early this morning. It was great.

Yeah, the only thing going on at night is the bullshit NBC coverage. There is but so much Ryan Seacrest I can take!

[sewf]

I agree. Unfortunately, we don't have cable, but I'd like to see some full events.

And I HATE Ryan Seacrest. Why is he covering the Olympic? He's not a sports guys, he's not a newscaster, WTF is he there?

[meadowlark]

I loathe the personal tragedy/drama/miracle, etc stories. Gah. Let's just do the events and forget jamming more drama down our throats.

yeah, yeah. Everyone has their problems and obstacles.

The bullshit about their site is they spoil everything. I'm many time zones behind UK, many behind EDT, so I go to watch the live/replay. And then they'll have something saying "watch x win y event." Dude, that's why I'm watching online, instead of waiting for primetime. Fuck nbc's website.

I know I talk a lot about being here, so forgive me.

If you have a way to VPN so you have a UK IP address, I highly recommend the BBCs coverage. They added 20 HD channels so everything is on. They are streaming everything live online but you can watch anything anytime if you miss something.

I wish there was more coverage of the cool, quirky sports. Like more badminton or table tennis. Swimming and volleyball get old after awhile.

Although I watched some men's gymnastic floor routines at 3 am this morning with Andy and that was fairly amusing.
