Here is a pdf file where you can see all the broadcasts of Olys (also the ones for Euros again). It is in German but I guess something like that will be available in English too.

Thanks a lot Nina!
I don't think I'll be able to watch the live broadcasts, but at least it looks like Eurosport is showing enough replays Very Happy

I just hope they don't move them to Eurosport 2!

I'll need valium too and I'm not kidding! I was shaking tremendously during Brian's LP...honestly. I was trembling all over and feeling feverishly. The woman next to me looked at me with great great concern, like she was thinking: "What's wrong with her? Is she ill? Does she have a contageous disease? She's not going to faint, is she?"

Honestly, Olympics are going to be so bad for my heart. But I've got to watch it! pale

Danke schön Nina!

I think Alex posted the same link in the sticky topic for olympic broadcasting!

Sheena I just read the article which you posted! It was really interesting! Maybe they should give skaters higher points for succeeding a quad, maybe that will motivate skaters to do a quad, but like the article said you can even make the olympic podium without a quad just like buttle and lysacek. A total clean program with only triple jumps will do as well.

But what they are saying in the last couple of sentences about risking an injury attempting a quad, that could also happen with a triple right?

yeah, Thanks Nina and Alex!
All the live broadcasts are in the middle of the night obviously.... Hmmm, still deciding whether to set the VCR or to watch it live....guess it depends on whether I have class the next morning...
