Just finished watching last day coverage on Eurosport via VPN service (can't watch it otherwise if you don't use one). Eurosport's worst coverage is still far beyond NBC's best. I saw at least 4 of Perkovic's throws...on top of all the other throws shown. NBC showed ONE throw only.
It makes me sick when "Americanism" has become synonymous with low-quality, poor delivery services such as NBC. Pathetic...embarassing...no words can express just HOW HORRIBLE the USA is when it comes to broadcasting. Embarrasing to have them as fellow Americans.
The MORON (name not worth mentioning) acting as commentator on the field events CLEARLY has no experience at doing so...Barshim's "hurdle" of what he called a " 6' 4" bar" was nothing more than a typical warm-up old-fashioned scissor kick (not a straddle as some BBC commentator made over the radio) of a bar that was about 6' 6" - 6' 10". The MORON said he'd never seen anything like that in his life. UNBELIEVABLE that NBC would attempt to pass this INEXPERIENCED NO-NOTHING off as an "expert" commentator.
May NBC die a horrible death.
