Do you sneak a peek at the results or have to wait to watch the recorded coverage to find out who won?
 
i peeked 1x, and was disappointed in myself... and then the one thing i reallyyyy wanted to hold out on everyone and their mother posted on fb about and ruined the surprise (gymnastics). stinkin nbc waiting till 9something at night to air it.
 
I try to watch it all live online at nbcolympics.com when it is live.
 
I don't have a TV near my computer, so FB pretty much ruins everything. Olympics, Survivor, you name it. I've given up. lol
 
I've been watching everything I can. And, I HATE spoilers! I want to see it all unfold without knowing how it ends up beforehand. Unfortunately, my CNN Breaking News emails have spoiled a bunch of stuff for me. :(
 
Meh. I attempted to avoid results, but quickly realized that it's virtually impossible to avoid the results in this day of 24/7 news and technology unless you avoid all phones, television, radio and computers. LOL!! Especially if your job has you on the computer regularly. I get CNN Breaking News emails too and they have spoiled all the "big" medal events. And even if they didn't, between my FB feed, Twitter, and home page it's a tricky feat to successfully avoid. Goodness even NBC itself has spoiled a time or two by showing teasers for upcoming Today shows that show photos/video of medal winners before they actually air the wins. So I just decided to embrace it. It's still fun to watch. :)

Instead I just grumble about how horrible the NBC coverage is.

p.s. #NBCfail
 
I watch it live (online) for the stuff I'm most interested in. It might not result in the most productive work week ever, but hey, it's the Olympics! :)
 
i am spoiled for most of the events - it doesn't bother me at all to know the results in advance, in fact i think i actually like it better because i'm less stressed during the event :) (i always read spoilers for reality tv shows too - haha)
 
The live finals are on here very early in the morning, all done before we getup so I haven't seen many medals live. Australia has been doing very poorly these games so not missing anything - sadly...
