I watched the NBC feed for about an hour. It was bloody dreadful. A fast food or life insurance ad every two minutes, irrespective of what the athletes were doing. Fuck off.

we're not watching the same feed pal.


did you watch the montage just above? its a beauty :)
I can attest to this. Non American Olympic coverage is pretty bad.

you had to pay to watch it...it was free to watch in every other country in the world
A Peacock subscription is $8 a month. One could pay that and watch every single event live or on demand. I don't think that's a bad deal at all.

You only had to pay if you wanted to watch every single event in the entire olympics. NBC coverage is free over the air.

Also, NBC paid $7.8 billion for the rights and sent hundreds of people to France to broadcast the games (NBC also provides a lot of content for other countries as well). Do you think they should make everything free out of the kindness of their hearts?

olympics should be free on network tv

football should be free on network tv

peacock did brand damage by charging for that KC playoff game last year

fortunately most americans dgaf about fruity olympic sports

but if they cross the red line again on NFL they might have hell to pay

‘how does it feel to be the bud light of network tv’

hope the $8 is worth it

when they are frying in hell

don’t test us again

these colors don’t run

Fruity sports? How un-patriotic of you.

You guys topped the medal table!

except for men’s basketball, they are all fruity

even the ones with guns

saw way too much sass in datass

all good i hang out late at the airport bar i know what’s up

but most americans are fatty cis and don’t know the true satisfaction of another man’s genitalia

and expect playoff NFL football to not be concealed behind an internet paywall

and this is just how it works
