Tired of listening to Rowdy Gaines scream about the fliers being a “little long on that turn!!”
Please give someone else a chance to commentate for once, Rowdy
How about last night as the women’s s 400 IM was halfway down the last lap, Rowdy saying that Melanie Margalis had one of the berths clinched?
For god sake , why made it so difficult for people to enjoy watching the trial and the olympic games , prelim here, final there, delay ….and then have to have cable accounts blah blah blah. I watch UK trials for free and it was easy to find, I am in the US, and i have jump through the huddler in order to watch a trial, this is getting ridiculous.
I am willing pay for the access to watch through TV, internet , streaming, but only interested in the trials and the two week of games, what is the best option there?
same situation for me. It’s indeed quite complicated.
Yeah, we have internet, but we don’t. And we have streaming TV but just not that channel. Now even the Omega results are spotty.
It appears that you can’t watch finals on peacock even with a subscription? NBC sports app is only for cable subscribers. Not sure what the fascination is in this country with keeping people on a cable subscription, outdated and shitty service.
They literally say they are going to have full Olympic Trials coverage w premium and still doesn’t include it.
Will Peacock stream the finals? Signed up for the premium, but don’t see an option to watch finals on any of the nights, only see the delayed prelims session.
No free live timing on Omega this time?
How can we stream in Australia??
Hello, I’ve been looking at the Olympic Channel and the live-streaming isn’t on the schedule, and for NBC OLYMPICS it needs a US TV provider which I don’t have. How else can I watch?
I tried testing the NBC Sports app and received an “authentication error” when trying to watch the Olympic channel live. Anyone else facing this issue?
