I was so excited, only slept 4 hours and couldn't fall back on sleep.

I'm waiting for Russia to pull an upset against Italy in their opening match. Please let Italy continue the curse of never making to Semi-final in the Olympics.

NBS's volleyball matches have more than one second delay on the images. I've watched live and replay, both have the sound faster than images.

a selfish part of me want them to stop testing the players once the Olympics officially start, I would really like to see the players play their games till the end. They are all vaccinated and healthy athletes, It's very unlikely for them to get severe illness from covid. And of course they should do the test when their Olympics journey ended.

Can the female flag bearer that's taking her place wear a giant face cut out of Eda over hers?
Or she can waves the flag in her quarantine room, and an Olympic staff holds a phone connecting her through zoom while walking beside the male flag bearer.

that's weird. maybe you added one of the add-on packages?
finally done after clearing browsing history
It looks like I can record a live match on Sling, just don't know if they'll show the video length. I just scheduled a recording on a female football match later on, and check it when I wake up.

I did not. The first time it showed $10, but I had a second thought and when I come back it becomes $18.

So I have somewhat good news but I'm not sure if it will work with a VPN.
Sling Blue has a promotion right now for $10 for a month which will get you a log in that will work with the NBC Olympics site for all of the Olympics content.
I just don't know if 1) Sling will let you register with a VPN/foreign credit card 2) If NBC will work with a VPN
sling is such a weird website, it says $10 deal on homepage, but the cart shows $18, and when I click check out, it just stays on the same page.

$10 is very tempting, and it has many channels, definitely better than $12 just to buy a UK VPN.

zoran terzic say in an interview that he prefers world champs than olynñics and boskovic is better than egonu
Also say his team is 4th power at olympics...following guio's steps
He can have his preference, but Olympics is undoubtedly the highest platform for this sport.
-
Of course he had to take his shirt out to do that.
I was gonna say why he kept his shorts on

Where do you plan on watching though? BBC TV, BBC iPlayer, BBC Red Button and the BBC Sport website and app
BBC iPlayer, since I heard it is free with UK VPN.

I have no idea. If you live in the US, you will definitely need a paid subscription in order to watch all the volleyball matches online. I checked NBC schedule and they will only broadcast very limited replay games on cable TV. https://www.nbcolympics.com/schedule/sport/volleyball.
What about BBC? I can't even find their schedule

I just started the free trial, only 5 days for me, and only 720p 60fps on my Android 4K TV. You can watch movies (TV versions with ads) and live TV. Live TV can be paused and recorded for later viewing in your library (have not try it though and won't since I only watch live sports). It's worth the free trial if you can get 2 weeks but definitely not worth the full price.
Oh damn, they changed it from 14 days to 5 day right before the Olympics. Smart business!
-
Yes. You'll be able to use the YoutubeTV log in information to log into NBC's website (where the matches are being streamed/replays)
I'm not 100% sure if youtube tv will work with a VPN.
I checked NBC play schedule, it seems some matches (none USA matches) they don't have live but replay in many hours later. I don't know about BBC. If somehow I can't watch live, I would like to watch replay shortly after. But one thing I don't like about replay is the spoiler of the video length... How to avoid that?
-
YouTubetv has 14 days free trial, I think it's pretty enough for the 16 days volleyball matches. However, I never tried it before, can anyone confirm that we can watch the matches live and replay on YouTubetv?

Zhu Ting is in CNN's "
25 athletes to watch in the Tokyo Olympics". It says she's considered one of the greatest volleyball players of all time.
https://www.cnn.com/2021/07/14…watch-in-tokyo/index.html
ps: she's the most awarded and has most MVP in Volleyball history by the way (female, don't know about the male side).

China will again advance to the knock-out phase with 2 wins, they will lose to Turkey in a thrilling 5-setter, and Turkey will make it to the semis(beating Japan), but go home empty-handed just like the Netherlands did 5 years ago
When I see the schedule that China's opening match facing Guidetti again, I was like what a coincidence
