I must admit, am not really enjoying the coverage of the olympics here, it seems if Canada is not involved in a competition, it doesn't get shown In the UK, the Beeb and others, show sports that brits are not even taking part in, and what was that all about in the opening ceremony, where they focused on the canucks, whilst other countries were coming through?

The commercial breaks are doing my head in. In one hour, I watched 3 or 4 one minute swimming races - the rest was adverts or sob stories. I'm not going to even bother watching any more Olympics from Canada - complete waste of time.

At least they don't chop up the Premiership with ads, although the picture in picture ads on Sportsnet are very annoying.

The adverts annoyed me more when I paid to watch them - now they're free, they don't bother me so much

Who are Canada's candidates for winning a medal, and what sports do they participate in?
