NBC dropped the ball on the winter games

NBC did a poor job of covering the Olympic games. I always love to watch the Olympics, but the coverage for these past winter games was more than disappointing. One of the best parts of the games is getting to know a foreign city like you normally would not. Getting to see the sights and sounds of Torino, the majestic mountainsides and native people is all a part of the experience, but there was none of that from NBC. The coverage rarely took us out and about for sights and sounds, and left me feeling robbed of the usually Olympic experience. It’s a shame too because the summer games in Athens were very good, and I had no complaints, but this time around it was way too much of Bob Costas sitting in a studio. Who decided Bob Costa’s was entertaining anyway?
