NBC should never host marathon feed ever again. Imagine seeing a lead pack with Geb and Meb during NYC and constantly cutting away to talk about the city or to some water carrier. Flotrack or something should cover it.


Agree....but this is the state of our sport. I wonder what the 3 men are doing now, sigh......

Who wants to bet we'll miss the decisive break during a human interest story?

No, it's actually not fairly decent. It freezes up every 30-45 seconds. Has live streaming actually gotten worse in the last couple of years?[/quote]

The human interest stories are annoying as hell, but it's better than nothing I suppose.

Ouch. The announcer said about the female leader, "she's passing some of the slower men." I wish I was that 'slow!' Geez. Those 'slow' guys are probably on 2:20 2:25 pace?

Did some guy just run by in pants? He had to be running low 2:20s pace since only one girl had passed.


Yeah - there was no number visible. I think he wanted to be on TV.

Why don't we just watch the Super Bowl by not showing 80% of the plays in the 4th quarter so that we can interview fans, cheerleaders and waterboys about what a wonderful city the Super Bowl is being played in.
