Finding the best time to watch live events is between 9:30 PM EDT - 3 AM.

Super cool to get almost every shot of the golf tournament.

Best part of Olympics so far? Peacock’s “Tokyo Tonight” with Kenny Mayne & Cari Champion. As close to RedZone as you will get with Olympics.

• Schauffele with 2 clutch putts gives U.S. golf gold

Xander has been my pick in every major for a couple years now, seems too good not to have won one yet. Glad he won gold. Wonder where this accomplishment ranks for golfers? Is it major equivalent? Is it not Green Jacket important, but for an American better than Claret Jug? I’m sure it’s different for each golfer.

Women's Soccer lost in the Semis.

Didn't get to see them play much, but they clearly didn't have their A game for this tournament.

Not sure what people think of the announcers for the other sports, but the main crew NBC has been using for Track airing on TV have been pretty bad.   They have some other former runners announcing as well, but they've only been on the streaming services which is a shame.

I thought the same thing last night.  Just comparing to the announcers for swimming.  The swimming guys seemed way more into those races than the track announcers seemed to be into the track and field races.  I'd prefer to see more energy on the calls.  Also wouldn't at all hate a "down the stretch they come" shout out at the end of some of these distance races
