Quality race off Wiggins.
Anyone see three 200m BS? Thought the scot was going to do it. Amazing PBS for silver. |

What a race! 0.01 the difference between gold and silver. Aussies are having a terrible meet.

you are missing nothing. nothing is live, so you know the results when they air.
of course mens water polo is live, some badminton, some fencing, no swimming, gymnastics, i'm betting track and field finals won't be live. did i mention i hate nbc?

A lot of stuff is live in the day. Evening is prerecorded
I've been trying to avoid internet headlines that may spoil results

Wow - the tax bill on winning a gold medal is $8,986, silver is $5,385 and bronze is $3,500.
(The United States Olympic Committee rewards Olympic medalists with honorariums. A gold medal brings $25,000. Silver medals get you $15,000. And a bronze is worth $10,000.)

I can't believe we got DQ'd from the women's cycling when we were guaranteed a minumum silver... Ffs.
Good win and world record for the 4-man team though. |
