I'll save you the classic "it's been a while since I posted, but I hope to post more." (but it is a true statement). Anyway, it is Olympics time, which means it's time to watch events that I never really watch until the Olympics roll around (thank you women's sabre and light double scull, both of witch I've watched with interest this weekend).
I've always been outspoken about my love of the west coast time zone because of the ability to watch all American sporting events and still get to bed at a normal time. But international competitions are a different beast. Especially when they are in China on the other side of the world. The east and central time zones get to watch the Olympics mostly live during primetime events. NBC negotiated hard to get the time of big events like gymnastics and swimming finals in the coveted primetime slot which would mean early morning in China. But that would still be too early for the west coast, so they decided to tape delay them here on the west. 10 years ago, that wouldn't have been such a big deal. But with the internet, it makes trying to avoid results of events so much more difficult. I can barely even look at my phone anymore without the threat of seeing some results. I guess that will be challenge over the next two weeks.
