Re: Olympics
I love watching Kerri Walsh Jennings play. So few things as fun as watching a spectacular athelete dominating their sport.

Re: Olympics
I don't know what I'll do when KJW finally retires. I've looked forward to the Summer games for so long becaues of her. This year I'm also into watching some of the US swimmers and the US Women's Soccer team.

Re: Olympics
This is the first thing that ive been missing out on without cable. I liked flipping between 7 stations with random events on.

Re: Olympics
I called my cable provider yesterday to kill all of it. But I couldn't pull the trigger on the whole thing. I chickened out. So I just dropped all my premium channels and a ton of the shit I don't watch. I kept the DVR, too. But I think I might cut that in another month or so. I don't know.

We are very happy with our decision. I just need to nut up and shell out for HBO Now. Because I really want to watch "the night of"

Re: Olympics
Same. I cut HBO. I'd watched the first 2 episodes of The Night Of and I really want to see the rest of it. We have an Apple TV we still haven't hooked up. I'll do that soon (ish).@SkitchP wrote:durdencommatyler wrote:I called my cable provider yesterday to kill all of it. But I couldn't pull the trigger on the whole thing. I chickened out.

The live streaming on Fire -- including the Olympics on NBC, and CBS News -- is every bit as stable and clean as watching on cable.durdencommatyler wrote:Same. I cut HBO.

im getting regular NBC over the air and watching some. But it's not the same as being able to pick between 4 things id never watch otherwise.

cool that the netherlands won gold though, since the other netherlands gal probably died in that crash on the descent.

Re: Olympics
Yeah that crash looked awful. My girlfriend and I both screamed in horror. The longer they say we have no updates the more I think she might have died.
