Do volleyball people ever get sick of hugging their teammates after every single play?

 

[Naxx]

If you don't mind a dutch website layout, you can try this one, but i'm not sure if it works outside of the netherlands.

To the right you choose a sport, and you select "nu kijken" for the live stream.

Thanks didn't know NOS had their own streaming going on. I live in the Netherlands, so its fine.

Bedankt!

NZL beat AUS in women's hockey. 1-0. It was a good game!

More entertaining than the score line would suggest.

 

[Koodo]

No one else watching Women's Gymnastics?

I love and hate the beam event so much. ;_;

 

[Hoo-doo]

Also a great link for people wondering where to watch the events from whatever country they are in.

Might be convenient to put in the OP?

Was wondering that myself, seems very unnecessary.

 

[cdyhybrid]

US kicking butt in rowing!

Go Dawgs!

 

[Adamm]

[Phoenician_Viking]

"Located in central Europe, bordered to the north by Germany and the Czech Republic, to the west by Switzerland and Liechtenstein, to the south by Italy and Slovenia, and to the east by Hungary and Slovakia. Is primarily mountainous with the Alps and foothills covering the western and southern provinces."

Haha. So stupid. They already fixed it.

That 10 saving that lousy round for GB!

 

[Peru]

Why is there even a seperation of genders in archery? Some of the olympic records are better at the women's side, even.

I was planning on it but I'm having trouble with my live streams. =(

Water polo can be so much fun to watch. Will have to check it out.

 

[Quentyn]

Swimming is starting right now.

 

[Natetan]

[Black Mamba]

it's the one sport more fun to watch than play.

What goes on under the water ain't pretty...

The goalkeepers are pulling off some good reflex saves!

LOL I heard the stories from friends who used to play...It can get nasty

Still makes for good late night tv when really drunk though

 

[Hoo-doo]

GB women's team archery. The second shooter is shaking violently every time she pulls the string. She just shot a 6-pointer :/

 

[TylerD]

The Olympics need to be 2 months long so I can watch everything dammit.

 

[NekoFever]

I was wondering the same thing. I thought maybe men had an advantage because it does require upper body strength, but yeah, I went and looked up the records too.

 

[Adamm]

Was thinking the same thing. There is way too much to watch

[Hoo-doo]

Great Britain shoots a 4 - Women's Archery.

Ouch.

 

[dc89]

I've got 24 dedicated BBC channels on Sky. 17 of them are showing events now.

GAH!

 

[killer_clank]

God, GB need to stop choking at everything

 

[Zaph]

A 4? I'm surprised that is even marked on the target.

 

[dc89]

Ouch.

Man. We suck.

 

[PjotrStroganov]

Gave it away. I must admit that I was chuckling when that happened.

 

[Nevasleep]

How did we win so many medals in 2008? Lol

 

[mozfan12]

Im pretty sure she was trolling, it was so far off the mark, and they needed 3 straight tens which is basically calling for a miracle. I took it as a "I aint give a fuck" shot.

 

[killer_clank]

Well none of the events so far we've even won medals in last time. The first of those is today but god damn if the cycling yesterday is anything to go by I'm nervous.

 

[Peru]

Just to remind you brit fans - in Vancouver Canada had a slow start with lots of lols to be had but then exploded on the medals chart.

 

[masud]

Whats good right now? Cant keep watching these dudes make a mockery of basketball...

 

[Zaph]

Also, fucking sick to death of seeing empty sees. Yet apparently all but 3 events today are 'sold out'.

Businesses got handed a ton of the best tickets but they're all too busy at the accompanying parties and socialisers to actually bother use them...

 

[Peru]

Archery, gymnastics, swimming, handball.

 

[Jamie OD]

The amount of people getting spiked onto their heads in Judo is painful to watch.

 

[Adamm]

Weightlifting!

 

[Nevasleep]

Zara Philips in the Dressage. Prince Philip is watching too.

If ESPN ever gets the games maybe we will get an Ocho.

I heard a lot of empty seats weren't sold on purpose. But I didn't hear why.

Imo if the Sponsor seats are empty after an hour of the event starting, they should resell the ticket to someone who wants in.

 

[Hobbestetrician]

Does the pool really have to be that deep for the swimming events?

 

[Natetan]

I'm really digging archery. China vs Italy.

Like someone mentioned, i wish they would do more behind the back shots. Getting a 10 is pretty tough!

 

[NekoFever]

It's weird how the weightlifters don't even look that big. I guess a lot of it's technique and balance/control there.

 

[Black Mamba]

Don't they use the same pools for diving events?
