    That was not much there to say park false started. The south Koreans were furious earlier today and appeal twice. On t he second appeal, park was qualified again. He will be in lane 6 and Sun of china will be in lane 4.

    I loved the opening ceremony. It was an amazing spectacle. I've never seen one so great, ever.

    I'm watching tennis now. I recorded it, and I'm not yet caught up to the live Tennis.

    But it's harder to watch in the Olympics because I want the U.S.A. to win, but I'll never cheer for Serena, or Harrison. In a normal tournament they aren't representing the nation, so it's very easy to route against those players. Now because it's the Olympics, it's a little more difficult to route against them.

    After watching the players, it definitely isn't impossible to route against them, but it takes some of the fun out of watching because I can't route for my "team" in those particular matches.

    Yep, just heard it on NBC. This tape delayed crap is killing me. Will the swimming finals today at least be broadcast live?

    yeah, sucks not being able to watch these events live.

    I'm almost certain the finals will be live, however.

    They spent 4-hours this morning showing a bicycle race. Not one single judo, tae-kwon-do or boxing match. Yet they have enough time available to show the women's soccer team goofing around on a bus? Forgot why I stopped watching the Olympics.

    As far as I know, NBC is the only broadcaster that can show it in the US.

    I recall in 2008, you could watch every single event live via the Olympic website.

    London dropped the ball there.

    Yeah looks like the swimming finals will only be live on http://www.nbcolympics.com/ at 1:30 CST. Won't be on TV until tonight. That is crap.

    If you look at their TV schedule it shows rowing is on NBC at 1:30.
