You may prefer the BBC coverage then. You can probably get it on www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/tv

The BBC may not be able to admit that the capital of Israel is Jerusalem, but they do know how to handle sports events: and they always use expert commentators.

I am almost sure the BBC will not allow online access to their coverage outside of Britain, unless somehow how can fake a British IP Address.

What really turned us off was figure skating 24/7 during the winter Olympics!

There is so much subjectivity in the judging and besides, how much of THAT can we be expected to see during the overall Olympic programming.

Also, women's softball....REALLY???? Wall-to-wall coverage of a sport hardly anyone wants to watch, even when there isn't an Olympics!
