The 2012 London Olympics Thread

At least they won't put it on the primary channel... Will they?

Doubtful. Until last night I wasn't even aware such a sport existed, much less was a part of the olympics. It's pretty much just olympic medals for mall-walking.

USA W Beach Volleyball won their first set against Aus. Did anyone see what the hell AUS was wearing? No booty plus they were wearing sports bra on the outside of the coverups? Show some skin girls!!! Now gay Gymnastics are on changing the channel.

I for one am thankful those two were covered up. May and Walsh still look good for their age.

Go Brazil!

And some question beach volleyball as a real sport. How silly. Here is the evidence. Real! Sport!

Strange that there is no network coverage of the opening USA basketball game.

It's on NBCSN right now. Also the special NBC Olympic Basketball channel on Comcast.

I doubt you guys can use it but try the bbc sport website, they are showing every game of every sport for free on the website. BBC Sport - Olympics - London 2012 Hope it works for you.

I've not had success watching BBC online before, and I don't see where to go to watch any Olympics now.

Water Polo is pretty cool. Seems like its only played on the west coast in usa.

(Water Polo) 5 min left in the 4th, USA 6 - Montenegro 5

Got to see Yi Jianlian drop 30 and 10 on Spain today. We overslept like idiots and missed the US dominating France. Despite the fact that the game started at 2:30 here.

USA wins over Montenegro 8-7

Hm, says the swimming match should have started but TV isn't showing it...I guess they're saving it for later in the night

4x100m men's freestyle relay about to start

 

[TrueOrange]

USA comes in 2nd

The French began to catch up with Jones in the 3rd lap and caught up in the 4th and passed Lochte


Phelps did really well with the second lap

 

[TrueOrange]

British announcers have been debating afterwards about maybe they should have put Phelps last rather than Lochte

 

[Il Principo]

You typically put your slowest swimmer second, it was an odd decision.

Maybe there was some concern after Phelps's performance yesterday and they chose to change up the order?

I think I heard them say the US's record is now 3-0 in Olympic boxing this year

Does MMA ever become an Olympic sport?

NO, NO! No USA coverage. Heavens forbid we get something without a price tag or a contract. Hell, the coverage is so bad on NBC (the tiny bits I've seen) it's almost a relief not to get it on our U.S. teevee bread and circus networks.
