    At first I had reservations....

    ....about watching the live feed on my computer....I prefer to watch tv on the um...tv....but the live feeds, without commentary and without commercial, but sounds of cheering is great.....it makes me just a little less mad that they aren't showing anything live out here in L.A....not even on Telemundo....which even thought the listing is telling me the event I'm watching (USA women v. Japan in soccer) is live, ESPN and other news outlets say otherwise. Unfortunately, NBC being the sole broadcaster in the U.S. is a bit like flying.....take it or leave it....and as much as I'd like to boycott, I like the Olympics even more.
