I've had a very hard time watching the Olympics ever since they've allowed professional athletes to compete. I've been watching the campaign commentary and panel discussions on CNN. It's much better, funnier, reality TV.

Ryan Seacrest doing commentary? Odd selection.

I’ve enjoyed most of the Olympics and their events by either viewing NBC’s broadcast or streaming options. Tomorrow I’ll enjoy my afternoon naps during the golf coverage.

We continue to get a lot of Coverage is Not Available at this Time, even when its already happened and was recorded but streaming seems to work fine sometimes but not others even when it's the same recording. Are you having any issues like that?

Right! I've had a lot of interrupted stream coverage. NBC seems to be having a streaming issue despite their efforts, but it's better than nothing.

I cant get into the Olympics with lots of top athletes declining to compete because of the Zika virus. Then you get the cheating Russians. I watched some cycling and swimming but that's about it. My car shows are more interesting and I also agree with Gene about pro athletes competing.

I think a lot of the golfers stayed away for security reasons as well as zika.
it's publicly known that they are worth a lot..... of ransom.

I’m over viewing the Olympics coverage. Don't care much what happens after last night’s women’s/men’s gymnastic and the Women’s Beach Volleyball coverage. Sorry to say that extensive Track and Field coverage dwindled my enthusiasm.

However…Go USA!
