I haven’t seen a thread on the Olympics. I guess I’m the only one watching them.

I didn't post on the Olympics because of the politics.
First and foremost, the difficulty in watching unless you have paid channels or cable. I guess I miss the days of the full page event schedules in the daily papers, and watching with the fair and balanced coverage from known sportscasters, plus color commentary from the former Olympic athletes who explained the nuances of their sports.

I'm watching.
Our women hockey team is kicking butt. 4-0 in the prelims. They beat Canada 5-0 today.
We have a 21 yr old male figure skater that's very dynamic and good. he could win the mens gold.

We've been watching every night. We have DISH living out here in the country so we can get several sports channels
with different activities on. Some gets a little boring.

If you have over the air broadcast TV, watching is free on NBC.

No over the air NBC out where we live. Antenna TV is spotty at best.
The Sat TV requires subscription for local programming.
Right now, we get Netflix, Hulu, and prime... some youtube via wifi tv.

Been watching them nightly since opening, both on sir NBC and Peacock. I like watching both winter and summer Olympics and becoming acquainted with the athletes from all the countries and USA.
