*Raph's Girl* · 02-10-2006, 11:12 PM

Ya know what's nuts about the Olympics??? NBC isn't even showing it live! WTF is up with that?!

I have the Olympics on 2 channels. CBC and NBC. CBC airs it live. I actually saw the opening ceremony earlier today. wherease on NBC it didn't air till like 8 hours later. So while everybody's waiting for NBC to air it at like 2pm or whatever I'll be able to see the games at 5am on CBC. 5 fraken am!

*Masked Ninja* · 02-10-2006, 11:26 PM

Well, there is a 6 hour difference. But I agree, that still kinda sucks.

Yay USA! I love the Olympics. I know people are gonna come in later and be all pessimistic... but I love to watch 'em. All the different teams, all the different countries to root for... I just wish I could find somewhere to watch it online, as I don't have my own TV.

*Raph's Girl* · 02-11-2006, 02:26 AM

Looks like there's more channels airing the Olympics!

CNBC and USA air it starting at 4am
CBC airs it starting at 5am
NBC airs it starting at 2pm

This is PT times so well check yer local listings for time and channel. I don't know why they plugged it in for just airing on NBC when it airs on 4 channels.

But good lord...4am?! Course each channel airs something different so I'll only watch the things Im interested in...Hockey aint one of em.

Ah well...between the Olympics and Nascar Im gonna be busy watching sports. 8 more days till the Daytona 500!! WOOT!!

**ThirdMarioBro** · 02-11-2006, 02:33 AM

NBC also fu*ked up the Live 8 Concert. No wonder they've fallen into last place in the network ratings. Heh.

I never understood the appeal of the Olympics.

*Sewer Bull* · 02-11-2006, 02:42 AM

Ski jumping is the only sport worth watching during the Olympics... duh!

I'm always getting all excited when a jumper is in the air.

*Anarky* · 02-11-2006, 03:30 AM

Go Namibia!

Is there anything more boring on TV these days?

Ra · 02-11-2006, 06:02 AM

Nope. Not until the reruns of the new Simpsons

AUSSIE! AUSSIE! AUSSIE! OI! OI! OI!

Eh, we fall flat on our faces with everything we do, so we'll be knocked out sooner or later. Except swimming....I hope

Maybe they should make some kinda snow-swimming event, just for the Aussies.

*Raph's Girl* · 02-11-2006, 01:52 PM

Swimming is a summer olympics sport not winter.

GOOO uh whoever wins in Curling...

*Masked Ninja* · 02-11-2006, 02:07 PM

^ You do know we were kidding.

Curling, haha. I am entertained by most of the events somehow... hm. Maybe I just like to watch people try to beat "best times" and whatnot. Then again, I also like to watch track meets, so... to each his own, I guess.

*JameO* · 02-17-2006, 03:33 PM

UPDATE WITH METAL COUNT!

GO CANADA GO! Doing pretty good this year, and the two hockey teams look to be going for gold as well, good year to show our talent before everyone comes to Canada for the 2010 Olympics!

Exactly. That's why we do it

Peanut · 02-18-2006, 12:11 AM

I watch the Olympics on and off. Mostly just hockey. I like winter a lot more than summer. Summer is boring as hell, plus it has basketball, which is probably one of the worst sports ever.
