NBC and I are in a bit of a Mexican standoff about this. I refuse to buy a TV, and they refuse to stream the Olympics live. Therefore whenever there's an event I want to see, I get behind a proxy and watch the BBC.

I've been on Risperdal for the past few months. Without it I wouldn't be looking at the Olympics. This is the first time I've paid attention to it in 20 or 30 years. It's been fun so far. I even saw the opening ceremony - first time in my life.

Never watched them. Probably never will. I just don't get it. Seems boring as hell to me.

the olympic games are a damned nuisance!
i could not care less what happens in the games, and yet 4 of my paid channels are clogged with olympic games footage for 24 hours per day......

i wish to apply for a partial refund on my cable bill because i have had only uninteresting garbage to watch while the olympic games are on.

Yeah.

I still think the opening ceremony at Beijing was better.
