The good news is that NBC will have all events Live online so if they are not showing a specific event on one of the several NBC channels (i.e. MSNBC, NBCSN, etc.) then it will definitely be online.

Also US iPad, iPhone users can download a free app "NBC Live Extras" and watch feeds from their favorite sports. Especially if your sport is a commercial TV orphan and isn't carried live on cable/broadcast channels.

Got an iPad? Or iPhone?
NBC has an App for that!

cedargrove · 28 July 2012, 06:39 AM

Left work early to watch the opening ceremonies. Pretty good so far.

Boothroyd · 28 July 2012, 09:39 AM

YAY!! We all need a break. Godspeed to London and all Olympians! What a spectacle!

Peppers90 · 28 July 2012, 10:18 AM

I like it all, I just get all caught up in the vibes. I will be glued for the next few weeks. Watching the openings as I type. I like the 007 and queen spoof!

Boothroyd · 28 July 2012, 10:29 AM

I have tears rolling down my face from the Queen/Bond entrance. Her Majesty is a good sport!

snowbird · 28 July 2012, 02:24 PM

Very nice opening ceremony.

So crushing. I cannot imagine not being able to compete due to a stupid mistake like that.

MoBe · 28 July 2012, 10:21 PM

I`m watching the men`s bicycle road race on NBC thank goodness,the Canadian network coverage is pathetic by comparison,the announcers don`t know what they`re talking about.

I don`t really think Hesjedal has a chance in this one but I have higher hopes for Sagan if he can time his sprint properly before Cavendish gets the jump on him.

i have access to 8 sports dedicated olympic cable channels, not sure what to bloody watch!

Watched so far swimming, russia beat canada in womens basket, now watching sweden versus japan women soccer.

The GMT Master · 28 July 2012, 10:59 PM

The BBC over here have set up 24 dedicated channels (all in HD) for the Olympics - it's quite staggering! The cycling is looking to be really tasty this afternoon

77T · 29 July 2012, 12:51 AM

Alexander Vinokourov - Kazakhstan - who'd of guessed?

Sweramic · 29 July 2012, 12:52 AM

Yeah and surprisingly NBC Network didn't use the same technology as NBC Universal Sports Network used during TDF to show gaps, distance left, etc.

Thanks - didn't know that backdrop. If he fails the Olympic drug tests it will make big news for sure.

It`s nice to see him come back from a broken femur last year to finish his career with a good win at this Olympics at the age of 38.
