US getting manhandeled by Canada in Men's Volleyball

nbc stream drops every 10 minutes or so w/ a 'coverage will resume shortly' message. the breaks aren't long enough for commercials so wondering if it is just me?

It happens to me as well. It's only 2 or 3 seconds, so I also don't get the purpose.

I'm getting the same thing.

i have no idea what's going on in fencing.

This happened to me yesterday. It would drop for about 5-10 seconds with that message and then go right back to the coverage. Sometimes even less time than that.

Kosovo's Judo win made me tear up during the medal ceremony, they have a really nice anthem.

Commentary would be helpful for the volleyball stream. When does the game end? No timer, so I'm guessing point threshold, but how many?

Indoor volleyball is 25, win by 2. Best of 5 sets; last set goes to 15

Probably just disguising the buffering.

Thanks.

First to win 3 sets. One set is first to 25 by a 2 point margin. (5th set is 15 if there is one)

Hard to win when you can't even serve

 

[Vic]

Canada's destroying the Mericans at Volleyball. Know your place!

 

[Pedrito]

I'm glad van Vleuten is okay. I was expecting the worst. That fall looked horrific.

But man, what a finish! Even crazier than yesterday's race. It could be one of the best events of the Games. That poor American rider...

 

[perfectchaos007]

Looks like Italy about to take the gold in Fencing

 

[Puppet Shadow]

Upset in the making in men's volleyball. Come on Canada, we got this!

 

[Tekniqs]

[John Dunbar]

the italian seems to be schooling the american (fencing)

Interesting, since the American is 3-0 against this dude.

 

[R10Neymarfan]

Makes sense. Italians have been doing this for centuries

Commentary is helping a bit but yeah, it's not the easiest sport to follow.

The Italian dude's in the zone rn.

 

[McBryBry]

Pretty much. Massialas is looking shook

EDIT Isn't it first to 15? Massialas has to have a perfect run to win then right?

 

[perfectchaos007]

??? What is this in reference to? Sure isn't WWII

 

[Puppet Shadow]

I'm glad van Vleuten is okay. I was expecting the worst. That fall looked horrific.

Any word on her condition?

 

[Raiku]

Massialas pls

 

[D i Z]

Had a crazy 7 point come back for victory earlier. Never say never.

 

[giga]

Simone's vault. My god.

 

[Envelope]

nerf biles plz

Sword fighting. Renaissance.

 

[Playsage]

??? What is this in reference to? Sure isn't WWII

We have a really long tradition in the art of swordfighting

 

[boxter432]

Massialas, stop going down so many points.

Italy guy. Stop having The screen light up green while not winning.


Rules are weird. Red light first. Green one counts. After like 8 million fake outs.

 

[Kalor]

Garozzo is really eager to celebrate.

 

[yagal]

Fencing. Garazzo's GOLD. First one for Italy <3

 

[Satch]

SIMONE IS TOO GOOD YALL UIGDFHKNNFDHFBDJ TOO MUCH POWER I CANT

THE ONLY PERSON CAPABLE OF BEATING YOUR OWN DAMN SCORE? LMFAO!!!!!!!!

 

[Velcro Fly]

Sure wish I could watch the gymnastics qualifying

Fuck NBC for airing it on delay in prime time

 

[Pedrito]

Any word on her condition?

Nothing precise but apparently "she's well" and was conscious in the ambulance.

 

[D i Z]

Good come back, but Italy was half way of the stand with his victory the entire time.

 

[perfectchaos007]

America dominating the silver medal count just like we did in Beijing

 

[Playsage]

Fencing. Garazzo's GOLD. First one for Italy <3

Second one! We just won Judo half an hour ago!

 

[Tekniqs]

how does fencing scoring work? what are the lights for? cuz lights kept lighting up but no scoring...red lights comes on first but green light wins the point..vice versa

 

[Line_HTX]

Fencing needs some Shoryukens to count as a touch.

 

[BearPawB]

Good run for USA in fencing. Was fun to follow him.
Always fun to get a medal in a sport we normally suck at

In foil there is a nothing of "priority", if you don't have the priority you might touch your opponent (that's when the light goes off) but it won't count.

Scary-looking North Korean coach at table tennis.

Vero, faccio il tifo per l'Italia, visto che il mio Camerun fa un po schiffo

That's obnoxious as hell.

Lol, this is my takeaway too.

Better luck in Tokyo, Massialas, I guess.

 

[perfectchaos007]

He's coaching like his life depends on it. And it probably does

 

[Line_HTX]

LOL, Germany and Korea draw 3-3. Korea is definitely advancing on Goal Differential.

 

[Hoo-doo]

Scary-looking North Korean coach at table tennis.

For real. I really wonder how these North Korean athletes are when interacting with the other athletes. Must be so weird.

 

[Satch]

does anybody elses gymnastics stream keep randomly switching to other stuff. like it switched to ping pong for no reason lol
