I love the olympics, I just hope they have enough coverage live that I don't have to worry about avoiding the news until the replay airs.

I would have guessed that you would tune in for the equestrian events.  Do you have TiVo or someone who can record the events that you miss from working so much?

I disagree with the Chinese governement's stance on many things, especially Tibet.  At least the games can hopefully provide peaceful dialogue.

No cable/satellite here----but my lady friend will be Tivo-ing all the basketball and boxing.

Early predictions : 

Kobe, Carmelo... and the rest of the boys - will go undefeated, and win most games by at least a thirty point margin.

Raynell Williams, Andrade, Warren and Russell will all take gold. And when ''Boo Boo'' turns pro, it'll bring a lot of excitement back to the lower-weight game. The boy can really throw....

3 DVRs in the house, each one set to record every thing on each of the 3 channels on Dish that are broadcasting Olympics.
