Obviously, that was incorrect as the game was apparently shown here (a replay, I guess) at 8 AM.
I mean, I know this site is free and a lot of hard work goes into it and I really do appreciate that, but guys...if you're gonna list the game times, please try to be more accurate. Am I the only one who plopped his butt down on the sofa at 8 all ready to see some Olympics hoops? I read the US vs. Angola thread and in addition to the fascinating semantics sub-lesson therein, I was able to discern that the game had already taken place, that the US won and that a lot of other people apparently got the memo that I did not regarding the actual start time of the game. I really don't mean to sound like a whiner here, but I generally put a lot of faith in DBR when it comes to these things. Giuess I'd better double-check next time...
