Olympics 2008!!

The Olympic's opening ceremony is tonight and I can't wait to watch. China has so many people and resources at their disposal that the ceremony can't help but be grand.

In the USA, we have to succumb to NBC's coverage which is typically light on sport and heavy on behind the scenes mini-docs of the athletes.

We'll also have to watch all the events on an 18 hour delay, meaning anyone who looks at a sporting website will know the results of the major events before you get a chance to see them on TV. If you're clever enough to avoid the results, here is a nifty TV schedule that will help you catch all the events you want.

If you want to watch the games live, you can actually watch most events live on NBC's website using links on that same TV schedule. While we're watching the opening ceremony tonight, China will already be well into Saturday and the preliminary events of some sports will be going on.

Finally, if you want to watch Olympic coverage as presented by other countries, you can go to ChannelSurfing.Net. As I type this, you can watch the opening ceremony on Italian, Croatian, and German TV.
