Give me CBC over any of these any day.

CBC dropped the ball and lost their Olympic contracts several years ago. They also lost all their great commentators, Brian Williams and Lloyd Robertson etc. Their coverage was great for all the years they did the Olympics, but you snooze you lose.
Sorry, I wholeheartedly disagree on the coverage being terrible. I find CTV/TSN/SNET's combo coverage to be quite the opposite actually. It's absolutely terrific. I've seen virtually every hockey game and every event I've wanted to watch, which is pretty much all of them. Most of them LIVE.
NBC has some good interest pieces on the athletes but yes, their actual coverage is spotty. Once in a while you hit on something good but too often they're just recapping and showing results from events instead of the whole event live.
