Death From Above Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Not to rub it in but I feel like once again the Canadian Olympic coverage has been mostly excellent. Older i get the more I become one of those "leave the CBC alone you idiots" people. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziel Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 As bad as NBC's website is, the Streaming app for mobile/Roku sucks WORSE. Good luck finding something actually running live that you actually want to watch. And shit, the weightlifting stream had commercials AFTER EVERY DAMN LIFT.

NikoBaltimore Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 All the times I heard about rugby I never showed interest in it. Watching it now it looks absolutely amazing. I've heard it's more dangerous than football is due to no helmets and all that. But so far I can't see why this couldn't translate well to the US. Worth a shot at least.

Phelps is obviously half shark / half torpedo. UK Gymnast Girl channeled her inner Sabu. The soul cleansing power of hate magically healed her broken neck and her blown knees and torn ACLs.. I have expected her to do a victory moonsault onto the vault horse and break it in half.. Awww. Little Flavia Saraiva is one of my favorite Olympic peeps right now. She looks like she is no older than my own kid. I keep wanting to text her coach and scold him for letting Flavia staying up so late. Middle school kids need to stay on a steady sleep schedule. Unbelievably, she'll be 17 next month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dewar Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Canadian women's basketball comes from down 12 starting the 4th quarter to take down Serbia. I love team sports at the Olympics! Well, not men's field hockey. They keep getting their butts kicked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted August 8, 2016 Share Posted August 8, 2016 Streaming update: Streaming on the laptop kind of sucks. There's a lot of lag for some reason and the design on the site is awful. Streaming with the mobile app is working much better. Crystal clear HD and only a few minor hiccups. But my phone bill will be insane. I can't use the Wi-Fi at work.

I guess maybe I'll watch RAW and then Olympics stuff after or vice versa. I should have just taken time off from work and mapped this whole week around the games lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death From Above Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Also, I have to say. The 10 meter diving tower is still, and always, utterly fucking terrifying. I'm not sure you could pay me to climb up and jump off one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
