There's a live channel around there somewhere. Select your cable provider and you're home free. Live video coverage of current events. Plus, you can watch already-broadcasted events, like the intense Gold-Silver archery competition between Korea and Italy. Which was freakin' awesome. I watched all 2.5 hours.

I ain't sayin' who won.

EDIT: Oh, and you'll have to install MS Silverlight, which is lame. But, you might find it worth it. Or, not. There's no Silverlight port for Ubuntu. Gonna have to dual-boot, son.

Alicia Sacramone certainly is feeling like she cost the US a gold right about now (after disasterous beam and floor exercises). Heck, I'd just be glad to get there. You never know, the Chinese could have a bad floor but it seems very unlikely at this point.

USA vs. China in Badminton: Mens Quarterfinals.

China absolutely dominated our boys: 21/9. Most of our points were from faults.

I hope this makes up for the fact that China went utterly scoreless in World Cup 2002.
