Ready for 3,600 hours of Summer Olympics?

So, of the 3,600 hours of Olympic content... how many of them are dedicated to gay programming that GLADD will accept?

I agree with others here. First, it gives me an opportunity to watch exactly what I want (I love swimming, diving, and track) and I don't have to worry about NBC switching over to something I don't like, such as povolt, shotput, or something else.

Second, I agree the time zone difference is a problem. I hated it when I'd hear or read who had won something. Yahoo even made it on their homepage where you could click an option so that every time you went to their homepage, it would hide results. I can't wait for winter, though, because I'm in CA, so same time zone as Vancouver. While I actually hope to go there to watch, at least things will happen more or less in real time.

I love having so much, because it means I get to watch the sports *I* want to watch. Awesome.

i like the commentary too.. i like to know about the competitors i don't have digital cable that picks up Croatian water polo

personally i love the Olympics! i see it as a good thing it only comes around every 4 years it should be an all encompassing thing until it ends..

But now you can watch the sports you actually you want to. No longer at the mercy of some network programmer who decides that everyone wants to watch the decathlon and not the shooting.

If this means less Jim Cramer then that's good right?;)

I too lost interest a long time ago. They're just too painful to watch. The announcers talk and talk and talk and then show us highlights of events they talked over. Like you said, "Shut Up and show us the games!!"

That's going to be their problem again, that a lot of stuff will be happening while we're asleep. But they get stuck between whether to run it live when nobody's watching or delay it and let the internet and other TV networks play spoiler.

In addition to the 2,200 hours of steaming online content,

It will be hot, but I think you meant 'streaming'....
