Save that garbage for daytime programming when you are trying to pull ratings from the stay at home moms.

I can't find all the other channels the Olympics are supposedly on. When I look for them, they aren't showing the Olympics. The only choice I had during east coast prime time last night was NBC, unless I am missing something.

I realize the re-scheduling of the Alpine Skiing events are killing them, but I like seeing sports and events that we normally don't get on American TV. The Winter X-Games were just on. I don't need to see it again.

I guess I'm just old.
msnbc, cnbc and universal some cable companies are not picking up the programing and primetime 1-5pm and 8-midnight, they are forcing you to watch nbc.
i like the cross-country and biathlon and ihave been taping that during the day. i couldn't care less about figure skating or stoners on snowboards.
