Because I watch what I Tivo'd last night, I have to stay away from tv and radio and even news websites to try and avoid hearing Olympics results.

I can't watch the live broadcast. Too many events I don't care about, and besides, the primetime show is like 4-5 hours long, who has time for all that?

Like the other night when they showed the women's marathon from start to finish. Over two hours of watching somebody run? I watched it in about 15 minutes, just buzz to parts that look interesting, then the last mile or so.

When Lance was in the Tour de France, I used to watch that via Tivo too. I like bike racing, but who can watch 4-5 hours at a time? Fast forward button is the key.
