You can watch the games live at NBC.com!

I was going to put this in a fanshot, but nobody reads those, and this is just too important to risk everyone not seeing it. I just found that out today.
In fact, you can watch pretty much any Olympic event you want live or in its entirety after its conclusion. I watched about 10 minutes of rousing Egypt-Netherlands (I think) team handball out of sheer stupefaction that it was available. Then I came to my senses and watched some beach volleyball highlights. Yup, I'm a shoo-in for employee of the month.
The first time I tried to watch it, it asked me for my zip code and cable provider; it said something like "NBC has a special deal with certain providers." I tried a couple of different ones before I got one it liked. If you get that question and your own address or provider doesn't work for you, try putting in 78704 and Time Warner Cable.

that race was frickin’ awesome…although someone needs to tell Phelps to pull his pants up.

my live feeds for the various hoop games has been spotty. for one game or one quarter, its running smooth and clear. then next time its in and out. still a pretty good option, but i’ll go into conniptions if it keeps happening during the medal round. i’ll bet most of those games are televised somewhere anyway.
