...

remember at sochi, bbc had a whole portal where you could choose any single event live , with full coverage. even better than what eurosport has this time around.

this time, bbc = nothing

I said it before and I'll say it again: They don't care because timezones.

Eurosport has everything, and it's easy to see what is live.

yes but the bbc portal from sochi was even better.

is eurosport decent this year? hows the commentary

Dunno why I made a webm of this.

pretty damn good.
I think I'm gonna just use that and even ditch bbc

I don't really want to pay for it.

if you have amazon prime you can get eurosport on there

U wot

How

tfw I live in the country hosting the olympics and the coverage is the worst I've ever experienced.

Like right now they're showing repeats of the Korean curling for the 3rd time today.

goodnight bros

Is that camera operator drunk

Amazon prime channels

Costs five quid apparently

>Bi Athlete

Did the North also pair up on your TV

Who are YOU rooting for?

Weird. When we had the olympics in 2012 it was the best coverage I've ever seen.

...

where is the luge thread

One positive of the time zone is that watching this late at night maximizes the comfiness.

you gotta pay for eurosport?
I sorta just zapped around and theyre showing snowboarding rn while state tv gives me swiss and canadian qts curling

its so annoying trying to watch as much as possible every olympics

...

I think not enough interest for one. We can discuss it here.

...

i'll be making a thread when the event starts in 1 bong

...

...

NBC was playing American Ninja Warrior all fucking day. Last time they had passable coverage of the Olympics was Athens, before they figured out they could charge people to watch online.

Stream where? Not paying jewrosport.

BBC is ok

how long before the chinks vote in laser guns like they did for modern pentathalon?

Man, half the fun of watching the olympics is watching it with my family. How the fuck am I supposed to have fun watching shit if it all airs from midnight to early morning?

Korea was a mistake

I love hockey

when there is chicks with guns?

Athens coverage was pretty gud. But that was the last olympics I watched on NBC.

women are delicate flowers

They're not the ones charging though. You just have to have a cable/satellite account.
Their server probably couldn't handle it if everyone in the us could stream it for free.
They're showing events on NBC Sports and USA too.

I never understood why TV stations don't just stream their channels online for free 24/7. As long as their commercials air they get paid, what do they care if some cable company middleman is taking a cut? I'm guessing their cable company contracts prevent them from doing it.

I know this kid is 16 but fuck, he could pass for a woman if he grew his hair out.

bbc went to shit ever since they required registration.

fuckers.

Is this the deathjump thread?

>3 Korean channels showing Olympics
>They’re all showing the short track speed skating

Short track in fifteen minutes

Luge in 25

>Norgay
Who here /goldonthefirstday/?

Stuipid Japs

J-just wait to after the ski jump and biathlon

>fatfuck Hamiltons choke again
Someone take their cheese-whiz away.

That's not for another ~2 hours.

Japan lost

Short Track is on now!!!!

luge or speed skating?

What's that Arab guy doing in team Japan?

speed skating thread?

Apollo Ohno back or no?

speed skating

>no qt curling gf

same with cbc. they interrupted the ceremony with their shitty fucking commercials during it

Curling is supercomfy

...

kek

that face doesn't look very aerodynamic

that's exciting as fuck kim sung moon

>suicidal norwegian jump
>relevant sport

Martin Haven commentating luge !

FUCK YOU BBC WHERE CAN I WATCH THE SPEED SKATING

LUGE THREAD

Some Canadians seem really similar to Brits and some seem completely yankified. It's weird.

...

What's stopping the first Russian to medal from playing a boombox blaring their anthem while they give everyone the finger?

I wish that was my balls

>speed skating

this looks gay as fuck

cant wait for the biathlon

Well first they have to have a boombox on hand.

Damn, seeing it get dark there in Korea while the sun rises here fucks me up.

>speed skater's thighs

o-oh my

Why the fuck is NBC allowed to monopolize Olympics coverage in the first place? We have a national team, it's not like the NFL where the teams and the league are privately owned.

>aussie knocks the wog and the chink out
based

>which caused a Canadian to win

thanks again

Used to be the rights were with ABC, then they didn't want to pay the rights for something they weren't making money with either. NBC snatched it up for a long time and gets to push as much ads as they can for maximum profit.

Also, NBC owns Comcast so they make profit from TV Packages too.

no p m8. were no hope

>biathlon soon
Lets go! Really hoping that Mäkäräinen pulls us another medal.

probably get fined

...

They paid a ridiculous amount of money for the rights. There was a fair bidding process.

>Finngols

And some boiled goose desu

>no qts

>find Mäenpää cute, especially when she smiles and her eyes bunch up
Must be the mongol genes in me.

Cmon dude, Kalla is looking pretty good there.

Lol ment Parmakoski, i mix up names even in my own language

...

I thought you probably had. Googled the name and it only came up with some male finnish football player

But there's nothing wrong with some mongol genes tbf. It can be a pretty good cuteness factor

That's what happens when you're only good at one sport.

Is Diggins an anime?

I get that they bought the rights, I just think it's stupid that they're allowed to keep them when NBC's coverage is consistently bad, and really a festival where we have a national team should be treated like a news event and covered by anyone interested and able.

soon...

does anyone know wher I can rewatch stuff?

I wanna see the slopestyle because I was asleep
