Not so impressive

Watching the opening ceremonies of the Athens Olympics. NBC's coverage is less than impressive. It seems that in Salt Lake we were treated to a lot more coverage and a lot fewer commercials. It might have been a very impressive presentation but we'll never know as NBC chose to cut away all too frequently. They are also not at all friendly to folks (like us) with a DVR... Many of the blocks are 7 hours in length, making it very difficult to catch the parts viewers are interested in. For example if you want to see a softball game tomorrow morning you're in for taping a 7-hour block. One can hope they'll get it together before it's all over, but then one would hope they already had it together.
