Is that why everything is blue, I thought I was losing my marbles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming this is in the U.S., right? Taking a look at the medal count, I think this is an easy discussion. Not a lot of stars in our Winter Games for the U.S. to get behind.

The Sicatoka Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 The coverage is, well, not watchable: Too much sniff-sniff feel good stuff and "with the athletes" stuff, no medal ceremonies, and not enough actual sport. Toss in a little fawning over a dictator's little sister and ... VOILA! Ratings. Crapper. < harrumph, harrumph, harrumph > 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the TV coverage on these Olympics so far my kids have basically come to the conclusion that almost every USA athlete competing belongs to the LGBT community. .........but Adam Rippon is a riot to listen to. Very entertaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The NBC Olympics app lets you watch any sport, any event, live without any extra crap. Just the sport. I don't think I've watched a single event actually on NBC. I watch everything through my Apple TV or Roku and don't have to deal with any extra stuff, and just get to see what I really want to see.

If four guys chasing the puck and leaving a guy wide open is sloppy.....then yeah I’d agree.... Czechs score. They’ve been all over the USA.

Wilbur Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Milbury just said what I was thinking. Terry should be your guy operating off the half wall on the power play. And a dumb penalty to end the period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
