I dont normally vent on useless forums..but..

Cmon... you can't delay the news by 8 minutes so we can see the end of a close gold medal match?!?!

Please do us all a favour and forfeit your right to broadcast anything anyone cares about ever again.

Where are you watching?

I assume you're West Coast and they just interrupted the basketball game?

US is 5 pts ahead.

Oooh and they just showed Beckham.. nice. Sorry, I digress...

(ooh thumbs down eh? someone's not a Becks fan i see...)

It has been a disgrace from the second day and it seems as though they have still not got it right all the way up until the end. I bet if Australia was playing they would have shown it!

Hang on now!

It was only a mens basketball match - not something important like an Aussie Rules AFL match.

LIKE I SAID, CHANNEL 7 SHOULD NEVER EVER DO OLYMPIC. GOING ON 3MINS AD DURING MATCHES. THEN TURNING OFF BASKETBALL MATCH TODAY (FINAL) USA SPAIN WITH USA LEADING ONLY BY 2 POINTS, THEY SAY - 'OH LETS TURN OFF BBALL AND SWITCH TO CHANNEL 7 NEWS WHERE HALF OF THE NEWS IS ABOUT THE OLYMPIC ITSELF' FKING PATHETIC CHANNEL. I HOPE IT F*CKS OFF FOR GOOD AND CHANNEL 9 DO HELLA JOB BETTER!

SERIOUSLY, CHANNEL 7 SHOULD NEVER EVER DO OLYMPICS AGIAN. ALL THESE ADS AND TURNING TO NEWS WHEN HALF THE NEWS ITSELF IS BLOODY ABOUT OLYMPIC. CAN'T WAIT LIKE U SAID 8 MIN FOR THIS FKING MATCH WHERE IT IS ONE OF THE BEST BBALL MATCH IVE SEEN. g*y BROADCAST CHANNEL

I presume you wont be watching the Ch7 Beijing heroes special either like me I am watching 60 minutes on principle and disgust at the coverage I hope everyone does the same.

Why bid for the rights if you don't want to show the games live.

It is a disgrace....an absolute disgrace....the people responsible should be hunted down . and the irony is that the first news broadcast is of the Olympians partying....leave them alone...we don't care what they do in their private lives....only the perverted news journalist think that we should watch them in their own private time...we wanted to see that last 8 minutes!
