NBC's coverage was awful. I watched on DVR without commercials to stick it to them. They played very few medal ceremonies. It was shocking how few. I guess they didn't want to show the flag or the anthem. Some great stuff happened in boxing. I saw only seconds of coverage. They covered track and swimming coverage was okay. What was up with the insane amount of volley ball coverage? Their back ground story of the athletes showed a complete lack of effort. Concentrating on the hated Women's soccer team in the beginning made many turn off the channel dooming their ratings.
