Fuck NBC moment #2.   Showing all bouts at once of fencing.   4 matches at the same time! Instead of a dedicated feed

And the same for badminton!! 3 matches at the same time.

And table tennis and judo!!! Pretty much every sport that have parallel matches in one location they are just showing one feed.  This is ridiculous!!!

I hope everyone in the USA group got to see the two women's foil semi-finals today.   That was some of the most nail biting and compelling Olympic action from a US viewpoint that I've seen in quite a while.

I watched the final, but will have to go back and watch a replay of the semifinals.

So what is our final thoughts?

 

Let's separate it between our thoughts on nbc/peacock.   And on the actual achievements and disappointments

Wish there was one more USA gold to bring us to one more than China, but overall, a very successful Olympics.

You're right but we are still on top because we got so much more overall medals.   There were so many opportunities like Ellison, Harrison, triathlon.  Any swimming which was kind of a fail.   Or Mcewen that already won a gold !   But never the less.  First place is a first place

    • A gold and a silver medal in the Panamerican tournament, not bad, i really don expect that "easily" defeat with USA.
    • World Cups don't generally have the exotic competitors we see in the world championships though, it's more likely starting down with the 13th best Austrians and such

    • Their database is too poor for them to be able to accurately do this.
    • Yep, confirmed.  We have Marcelletje for , Lindsay Vonn and Lucas Pinheiro Braathen for .   However, Vonn and Hirscher will be wild cards, so starting down with the Chileans and the Iranians in the first leg.  Snow conditions are good though.     Vonn, Hirscher & Braathen Returning To Racing At World Cup Opening - InTheSnow
