I believe the above stated times are CST.

This cannot be the REAL Olympic games. They must be qualifiers.

How do I know? Because I clearly recall the headlines that NBC promised the "Prime Time" slots to softball that they had originally designated for baseball before that team was eliminated. And knowing that TV news, sports and programming departments are the most trustworthy, I know they wouldn't lie to us.


Because, unless you're Count ****ing Dracula, there isn't a single game scheduled for broadcast anywhere near prime time as I know it!

We received the same Email as Dave. I also recall seeing/hearing the same thing IrishMafia is talking about. Further, I also remember hearing something about a movement to "Remove" Softball from the games.

I guess there is a big demand for doubles badminton, or male/female sychronized swimming...Because you know those sports/events/exhibitions are way better.

Sorry to offend some people, but I(Mr. Kellerump) subscribe to the George Carlin definition of sports. If it is "Judged" then it is a Sporting Event/Exhibition....Not a Game. Only a game has a clear winner or loser determined by some point system.

Don't forget the ever popular Ballroom Dancing

I prefer race walking!

What about sychronized couch potatoing? Or any of those stupid college dorm stuff I've heard of? Like, midnight frozen pond sychronized skinny dipping?

I believe that's a winter olympics sport!
