Hello again,
It MIGHT have something to do with the volley ball pits being in full view of the queen... But, surely the Brits don't have any problem with boobs.. They're much less uptight about them than we are...

Actually it was because it was kind of cold so all is well. They aren't required to cover up but they can if they want to now. I feel much better.Quote:

I think you are a bit confused here. NBC is a major network that has only devoted a portion of its programing to the Olympics over its flagship stations. They are also providing wall to wall coverage on other NBC owned channels and also carrying it live over the internet.Quote:

Oh Please tell me it isn't done for profit, isn't what the adverisers pay for, it is all done for the respect of the athletes, I see a lot of respect ,when an athlete fails like the camera is in their face. The Olympics is profit personified excepting in this case you can't even fill the stands because the seats are reserved for hangers on who don't even attend, no respect there. If the Brits have failed it is in understanding that you have to sell seats not give them away
The additional OPTIONS were indeed to accommodate customs and religious beliefs. I just missed the 'option' part. Note: I do admit when I'm wrong.Quote:

Not bad for a so-called has been.
I think he should took a bong to celebrate :>
I agree . That was a tremendous accomplishment that required super human dedication.
However ,there is plenty of time for NBC to do the human interest programming. There was something more in their decision to exclude this one segment of the opening ceremony.
Touche'. Good comeback.
Boy, is NBC getting flack for their apparent shoddy coverage.

That's just a search for "NBC olympics coverage". Twitter is afire about their failings.

Thank you, just wanted a source. I think their coverage is terrible. In fact I think just about everything NBC does is terrible. That's probably why they're dead last among the big four networks.
When it comes to TV, I don't care what network something is on, I just look for shows/programs I like. I end up bittorrenting much of what I watch.
Hi Karma saw that canadian cyclist narrowly miss out, you guys are doing OK at the games
Clara Hughes? She is an awesome person, met her briefly once.
