I am loving the reports of the awful conditions there. Journalists are trading light bulbs for door knobs among other things...

#pillowgate is particularly awesome.  So 50 billion was spent, 30 billion was estimated to have been siphoned off by Putin's friends.  Impressive work Russia.

Highlights from the opening ceremony so far:

1. A dog walked in, so it's probably dead by now

2. Someone on Austria fell

I don't think there's a single sport in the Winter Olympics that wouldn't be made better by a stray dog invading the premises. Curling, speed skating, luge... bring on the barking.

Great work by that NBC reporter asking Bode Miller if he misses his dead brother 8 times.

Post by: Don Ho on February 18, 2014, 12:33:54 AM
I've only watched a few events and as you can imagine with the NBC delay and the Hawaii delay really make it difficult to enjoy.  I think we're watching stuff from the Vancouver Olympics half the time.

And yes, WTF with continuing to question Bode Miller about his dead brother.  That was pathetic reporting.

I thought that was disgusting. That reporter clearly had an agenda of premeditated questions designed to get him to break down for some warped sensationalism, and in the process robbed him of his moment of just getting to enjoy winning what may be his last Olympic medal. Pretty pathetic.

So, it is obvious these NBC dirtbags have it as a corporate strategy
QuoteThe Miller interview wasn't the first during these Olympics to draw criticism to NBC for its apparent invasiveness.

On Friday, NBC host Meredith Vieira asked American skeleton competitor Noelle Pikus-Pace about a miscarriage she suffered. Another American Olympian, Katie Uhlaender, was brought to tears on Friday after she was asked in another interview how her late father would have felt watching her performance. She missed winning a bronze medal in the skeleton by just 0.04 seconds.

Amazingly, the NBC exec in charge justified the Miller bit as a story that needed to be told. "Exploitative leeches" was a good description I saw in the comments the quote came from.

i was thinking of this last night. primetime in hawaii begins at 10am sochi time...meaning that tomorrow's events are already under way when nbc's tape delay bs starts for the drunken psychopaths that inhabit that volcano in the pacific ocean.

nbc's care factor about the hawaii market: negative zero
