Dick Button is beyond annoying (especially his commentary last night).

Who is Dick Button? I've missed him completely.

I record the Olympics and watch the parts I'm interested in. That means no commercials, no interviews, and all skating must be on an oval track or with a stick in hand.

I did enjoy the snowboard cross though. Maybe next time they can have wide track bobsled with four sleds racing at a time. Kind of like "Ben Hur on ice".

He is one of NBC's figure skating commentators, or should I say, kvetchers. He doesn't like this, he doesn't like that, that move is tired, the ice dancers aren't exhibiting enough passion and sensuality, etc., ad nauseum. He does praise the skaters sometimes, though.
