Coverege in Canada is great, coverege from the USA stations is poor and very biased but its always been that way and I guess that's what sells in America. Poor NBC coverage is because most people in the states are'nt exposed to winter sports like the worlds northern countries, just notice the difference between Summer and Winter games.
I just left Vancouver to work in S America and there is nothing in the 4 local papers, direct TV had Football, Soccor to the rest of us, on the tube, like 5-6 different games but no Olympic games coverage. I'll tell you, if I have to listen to some anouncer yell Goooooooooooooooal ever again I'm going to lose it, its worse when they yell touchdown with the same drag out, makes you want to B slap the guys mom so enjoy what coverage you get, all I have is BBC and the net that is slower than the second coming of Christ
Yank coverage always sucks, just watch a telivised hockey game - the camera men can't even do it right, ya lets have another close up of the puck.
have never heard of the seat thing but in past I have noticed empty seats, reminds me of watching a Leafs game, and thats a bummer to the people that want to attend. The cost of being there is also a problem for most people
