Agreed. As a runner, I am surprised at how much we put on our knees while running. The moguls just scare me.

That was a pleasant surprise! Apolo wasn't going to medal in this event without that. I'm so happy that JR Celski won a bronze too. :D

Not surprising. US is beating China 7-0, but I think they've took their foot off the pedal.

US and Canada are the only ones who can win the gold.

I was at a conference this weekend, and missed the opening ceremonies. Are they online anywhere (of any good version/detail) or will they be replayed on TV?

You can watch a replay of pretty much any event.

Its really time for someone else to take over the Olympic coverage in the states. NBC is just horrible with broadcasting the games. Their is barely anthing on live anymore. You would have thought that with them being 3 hours behind to the east coast, that we would see more live coverage. Blah! Can get the results so much quicker over the internet.

ESPN/ABC is bidding for 2016.

I'm fine with them showing the big events on delay, if they would let us watch everything live online.
