Ahh, yes, I can see how it benefits Americans in that sense. As a Canadian, I'm not saying that CTV is the be-all-end-all or anything, but their coverage has absolutely wiped the floor with CBC's over the past 2 Olympics. CBC's last games, Beijing......well, I'd barely even refer to that as "coverage".
But since CBC is apparently gonna work with TSN on this, which may get them to three channels (CBC/TSN/TSN2) like CTV is right now (CTV/SN/TSN), I'll just wait and see, I guess.
The biggest issue with the next game is that Sochi as 8 hours ahead of eastern time. Ugh. Dat gold medal hockey game at 10am :lol
