Rogers improves, but is still 2nd, 4 cm behind first.

You can just tell she has a little more yet - hopefully she can find it in the last two throws.

####ing CBC Gem has been so bad. It's dropped me at critical points like 5 times in these Olympics. Like just now halfway through the 1500 m. Brutal

CBC's coverage is all over the place, have they even interviewed Rogers yet?

I love how the medal counts change depending on whether we're ahead in gold or total medals. Canada is not the only country guilty of this. I believe it changed for US as well. I'm sure other countries do the same thing.

Did they show the Rogers win live on CBC? Was watching the stream so didn't see. If not that seems odd. I get that sprinting events are marquee but when you've got a sure Canadian medalist on tap maybe pivot to that over an event with no Canadians? If they did show it then I retract my criticism.

Yeah I've noticed this in the past as well. Usually we do it by total medals here I've noticed, but these Olympics it seems to be by gold medals.
They should just do an overall point total. 3=gold, 2=silver, 1=bronze, easy peasy.

TSN showed the event in it's entirety. CBC would check in around the track events, sometimes a bit delayed

Funny that NBC's feed has a ten second delay. What for?
