The God awful Pro Bowl on Sunday had more viewers than the Olympic coverage on NBC/USA Network COMBINED during the same time slot. LMAO

It's the second Olympics in six months. Obviously because of COVID. That doesn't help the ratings.

Suzy Snowski grew up having to share a bathroom with a younger brother. She uses that to motivate herself to the bronze.

I'm a big fan of the speed skating. Men's, Women's and the relays. Been watching all morning on Peacock and it's not the typical NBC shit with sob stories and other video packages. Just one race after the other.

Different TV era. It hasn't been that way since the 1992 Olympics. Back then with fewer channels, no streaming, less effective internet, people were more likely to watch the Olympics. Even 10 to 15 years ago there were more people watching basic and cable TV. Outside of the Super Bowl, I'm not sure any other shows get similar viewership over time. Nobody watches award shows anymore either.

What the Russian's tested positive for drugs?

I suppose the next breaking news you are going to tell me is that Water is Wet.

Legalize PEDs, it's time.

That is awful. Glad she prevailed.

No. Then only the top countries will ever score medals.

Russia is other worldly when it comes to state sponsored cheating. It shouldn't be rewarded.

I bet china is up there as well.

How long is this downhill ?

Just looked it up. 2 miles. They're running about 1:40 mins or so. That is hauling ass.

1992 you could more easily avoid spoilers and know what happened at the Olympics. No affordable wide spread streaming was available.
