My pal Bill is a guy I did TV and radio work with back at Mizzou in the stone age. He now works for Fox Sports, but is on loan right now to NBC. He's in China helping with the Olympic Coverage. He works in one of the TV trucks and sent this picture from his "office" this morning. Cool!

I am wondering how the "on loan from Fox to NBC" works?

Cool office, even though he is stuck in China.

He's probably a contractor.

He usually does College Football in SEC and Big 10. He worked on the Rose Bowl this year.

So is he covering the Olympics or is he competing in some sort of Olympic televising event?

He wasn't specific. I know he's on a TV truck in China somewhere.

They drive around a circle and people throw fake snow on the race track while those in the trucks televise their own event.

It sounds more interesting than ice dancing.
