I suppose I need to figure out how to stream NBC now.

Get peacock now and you get all of the Olympics and all of the World Cup.

I suppose I need to figure out how to stream NBC now.

Peacock is most useful during the Olympics. Just about everything can be seen live or on-demand (organized by sport) as well as choices of "whip around" style channels. I expect the curling to have a "4-box" view like they did with table tennis. It's really quite well done, if they copy the product they put out for the summer games.

Worth the $11 for 1 month, or there are ways to get it included with other services (including some free trials)

VPN through another country and get their feed.  US Olympic coverage has been known to cause deep fork marks in the forehead.  Doctors are still exploring the cause.

Plus Australian detective crime fiction ads are a hoot.

US opens with a 5-1 win over the Czechs. Guilday had only a handful of shifts, I think. Canada's game ppd because a bunch of the Finns are sick.

[Trotsky]

I and many others are watching events on significant delay and would appreciate a 24-hour embargo on event results please.

If the opening night of NBC prime time is any indication, this is good advice. NBC will hammer the presence of such current winter athletes such as Snoop Dogg, Simone Biles, Shawn White, and 23.5 hours of Lindsey Vonn and her ACL every damn day.  I'm sure they will find some way to bring Michael Phelps on.

Stay away from NBC, stick to specialized Peacock event coverage.

I streamed Italy-France on something called CBC-Gem by wearing a toque and pretending to be from BC.

Listening to the Italian apres ski fireplace feed https://www.raiplay.it/dirette/rai1 is great because while it is obviously, through body language and tone, as idiotic as the US feed since the entire species has been reduced to fungible consumer units, I can't understand a word, so it is far less irritating.

Come The Revolution, let's make all the Rights of Man declarations in Italian.  It doesn't matter anyway since the guy with the club will do what he wants, but it's so pretty.
