You'd think though even if they alternated with the major flagship events the other would show minor events on the other days.


Apparently, one argument for the current arrangement is that the German license fee payer should always have an alternative to the Olympics on one of the major public channels.

Shocked at that AJ set. They certainly made no cutbacks on it. Any more caps of how it looks on tv?

It's still not as good as anything from BBC Sport.

It looks tacky, it's the over use of bright lights that bothers me

OK, it does look very flashy from those 2 photos but it seems they are the only ones who put an effort into a real studio there, except for BBC of course.

France TV may take exception with that.

Well tell them that then. Very Happy

I did think it was ZDF, but the logo managed to convince me otherwise.

The Z stands for Zweites, which means Second, and so it is a Z stylised to look like a 2.

Looks like NBC are trending for all the wrong reasons. Not showing live coverage, and editing out the tribute to the July 7th seems to be the main issues.
