NBCSports channel longer exists. It was closed down Jan 1st.

It was replaced by NBC LX, which for those not lucky enough to receive it, is whatever this is:

"NBCLX, which made its debut for U.S. audiences as a digital news brand in September 2019, is NBCUniversal Owned Television Stations' TV and OTT network designed for adults 18 to 45. ... NBCLX's innovative storytelling approach to news is personal and empowers audiences to take part in the conversation."

Oh, neat, a lifestyle channel.

Anyway, follow the link above and click on each event. NBC is doing better with their channel guide at least this time around.

How does this work for those of us that do not subscribe to a cable network?

Anyone got a schedule for the skiing events? I really don't give a shit about anything else.

I have Peacock. I don't have a DVR.

Insane, huh? Last night they were doing Curling on indoor man made ice! Next thing you know they'll be playing hockey in Florida!

Of all the things to watch on TV, and you were glued to Curling. Alrightee.

That’s not the point he was making - but you already knew that.

Download the Peacock app, pay $5, watch Olympics.

**m2711c** · 02-03-2022, 01:01 PM

how much for just the downhill without breezy?

**SumJongGuy** · 02-03-2022, 01:04 PM

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA^^^^

**EWG** · 02-03-2022, 01:32 PM

Where’s Dee? We need his comments about the course setting. Watching downhill practice now and it’s fascinating

Not that too many folks watch moguls anymore, but the American's have a hell of a squad this year. Initial round of qualifying was this morning. 3 gals and 2 men already qualified for the finals. I think you can catch replays on Peacock.

**Casey E** · 02-03-2022, 01:46 PM

Good article about Eileen Gu, and her tightrope act between China and USA. Guess she debuts in Chinese red on Feb 7.

$2m a pop for endorsements, and the Chinese can’t get enough of her.

(Ahem, raises hand)

Yes, we have the most promising young group in a while and it appears that some time before the next Olympics Mikael Kingsbury will finally retire and give someone else a chance, lol.

I posted another article about her in the last couple pages. Very interesting story, not sure I would have made the same choice.

Do those moguls look a bit thin, or is it my Peacock?

Very shallow bumps, and more spread out too. I noted that when I was up at some God awful hour this morning to watch live to the completely disinterested grumbles of my family.

Not that I dislike Trace and Hannah but wasn’t Moseley supposed to be doing commentary from afar?

Also, I’m shocked that NBC had an entire segment on night one of primetime on the junk show that is China and their arbitrary human rights policies from the in-country staff. Shocked.
