Is television coverage going to be its usual mix of 15% competition, 35% smarm, and 50% commercials?

Awesome! Thanks!

Just 6 more hours, and we too... can see the damn tape delay!

I love the Olympics. I mean, I love sports. I love people from all over the world coming together to play that same sport. It's a win-win situation really!

More like:

7% Competition worth watching (Swimming, Track)
23% Competition not worth watching (i.e. Basketball, Boxing, Soccer, Equestrian, Gymnastics, Volleyball, Badminton)
20% Smarm
15% Up-Close & Personal (Unless you consider that Smarm)
35% Commercials.

So, basically there will be about 30-minutes per day worth watching.

The coverage on NBC's other networks (MSNBC,CNBC,Oxygen,Bravo,etc) should be much better, with less human interest BS.
