Rep Power: 39 | | | Thanks, Unk.
They have opened up a few dedicated channels here for watching the Olympics. I will try to catch at least a few of the matches.

Rep Power: 100 | | | I'm doubtful. Olympic coverage in the states is usually horrible.

Rep Power: 39 | | | Seems pretty good here. They covered the opening ceremony on no less than 6 of our sports channels.

Rep Power: 82 | | | Just checking that out, but I am gonna have to wait and pull up the official tv version instead of the live feed.
Watching it streaming live showed me I know nothing about judo and need the commentators to explain it to me.
But the NBC online olympic site is pretty cool. You can pull up all sorts of stuff all sorts of ways.

Rep Power: 149 | | Yup, I'm watching a rousing game of badminton on the ol' MSNBC right now.
Way to go, NBC.
