All this is sourced through the NBC Olympics broadcast schedule. Competition starts again at 6 am tomorrow. I’ve done a full day because as you see the evening isn’t much, yet. Also I have evening and afternoon appointments.
Now might also be a good time to mention that we’ll be providing coverage for Formula One Hungaroring at 8 am today for Qualifying and Sunday at the same time for the race.
Competitions designated by (Medal) will award winners that day. ‘all’ means not specified. Sometimes NBC especially does mashups and doesn’t include event or competitor information. Elimination means no round robin, one and done.
Today’s Cycling event pits all the names you remember from Le Tour back on the road. Wiggins is favored but that’s just sentiment, this race tends to favor a Mark Cavendish type. No teams.
But these guys are professionals.
So they are. Just like Men’s Basketball. The Women are coached by Geno of UCONN. Rafalca will dance today. Phelps starts collecting his golds. Badminton! Rowing! Table Tennis! Fencing! All those nerd sports you never see.
These schedules are a place for you to make sure you don’t miss a sport you like and share your observations. Have fun today!
Men’s Soccer Results (from Thursday)
- HON 2 – 2 MAR
- MEX 0 – 0 KOR
- ESP 0 – 1 JPN
- UAE 1 – 2 URU
- GAB 1 – 1 SUI
- BLR 1 – 0 NZL
- BRA 3 – 2 EGY
- GBR 1 – 1 SEN
I’d rate Spain and Great Britain as underperformers so far.
