yeah, all our main-channel NBC coverage is tape-delayed. CNBC and MSNBC show other events, mostly hockey matches, live. grrrrr.
Totally, Russian men had a GREAT run there between Boitano and yesterday, and I'm sympathetic to him being disappointed. But c'mon, try to act less like a five year old and more like a world-class athlete, dude. But I guess this is always going to happen with subjective judging, no matter how "objective" they try to make the standards-- it's never going to be a timed event (and even then we have the people who were bitching about that one race of Michael Phelps and some supposed clock shenanigians, so even there, it's not exempt)
