Don't go to Drudge Report if you want to be surprised by the results of Olympic events, or any other news service, office water bottle, neighbors, work mates, etc, except NBC.

Poor Americans. They gotta have news when they want it and not one second before. And they want news sites to not report the news.

Imagine 9/11 on tape delay.

I want it LIVE even if it on the other side of the world. I remember the 1996 tape delayed Atlanta Olympics. The excuse was that terrorists might try to do something spectacular on LIVE tv. Well, they did that on 9/11. The media covered it.

If you don’t wanna know that US women gymnasts win GOLD today, then don’t read news on a news discussion forum. :-)

Thanks for the heads up. I’ve been avoiding many sites. though I stopped going to Drudge when he endorsed Romney back in the day.

Go Team U.S.A.!!!

We’re supposed to do one a year?

It doesn’t take away one thing for me to know ahead of time. I still enjoy watching them compete. Their skills and determination are still amazing even when you know the outcome. Besides, I don’t always get to view every sport I want to watch and it is nice to know the standings.

If you don’t want spoilers for any major sporting event avoid FR as well.

I like knowing the results so I know whether or not to waste my time watching it.
