I’ll add Alica Schmidt and Alex Morgan (check out her SI Swimsuit Issue).


Yawn. Overexposed and typical. We want the beads, coconut oil, that crazy skirt and the rest of it.


You have your eye candy and I have mine.

Use the NBC Sports app. You can replay and fast forward pretty much any event.

We were watching gymnastics and the Simone Biles interview came on -- with my 5 and 7 year olds in the room. We've talked about sexual abuse before and it was another reminder to always talk about it, but after a week long vacation, I wish I didn't have to do it in that exact moment.

Go to nbcolympics.com
It gives you the ability to watch live (and replays) of every single event. You have total control over which events you want to watch. Not at the mercy of network TV bouncing around to different stuff.
My family has been having a lot of fun. We are even watching on our big TV, but using the stream from the website rather than any of the NBC TV stations.


It requires a tv provider login to access the web content IME, unless I am missing something. We have a Peacock subscription and ended up subscribing to NBC SN through Hulu Live and the coverage is only marginally better, both live and on demand. The sports that my daughter really wanted to see (fencing) is basically not being aired.

Have you seen the start of the men's triathlon? Where the TV boat is in the way of the competitors jumping into the water? Classic.

That's crazy, but not NBC's fault apparently.
