OK here’s the deal, few days ago, Youtube had coverage of the Olympic game but Americans were not allowed to get near it. The press has gone to report the madness of waiting up to 15 hours delay before being able to watch the Beijing Olympic openning ceremony. Most folks spend more time online reading about the results but were not able to watch it until much later. And so there has to be a better way for desperate folks. We’ve learned the trick and and are reporting to you so that you can watch the Olympic games live also with just a four step process!

On a side note, I wouldn’t mind seeing the game with a different team other than the USA team…see other teams on other sports…
