I'd like to know where WCAU got that date.  NBC is all Olympics, all the time that week.  Maybe not all the time; they'll find time for Brian Williams.

Tremendous.

You can take this silver medal, or ski jump one more time, for a gold, but remember, the East German banker may give you only a bronze. Deal or No Deal?????

The models could provide play by play. I'd watch them over Costas any day! :)

The Olympics end the 26th (According to the NBC Olympics Schedule), so a 2/24 date isn't really feasible....plus the 24th is the Figure Skating "Champions Gala", so no way will NBC not show that. (although I'd more likely be watching the Curling finals)

I was watching on the digi cable a preview for curling just last night, and the two gals from the US...how do you say Mr. Lemon...they make me feel all funny all over.

I'd rather have Jim Lampley over Costas as the lead guy...coincidentally this Olympiad breaks a record..."Lamps" now has the distinction of having covered the most Olympiads ever.

Well, that certainly makes one of you, since it's pretty widely held in the sports broadcasting community that Jim Lampley is a complete and total hack.

Agreed. I've thought "Lamps" was a complete tool since seeing him on HBO in the early '90s (incidentally, another Jim, with the surname of Gray, ain't much better.).

Sportscasting incite or lack thereof time...lol

I find Costas a bit full of himself, meself...not that he doesn't have right to be, of course, but still...little guy with big ego...

To me Costas beats around the bush a little much, and that's not for me...Lamps is a little more to the point, hence a slight edge.  But, I'll split the difference...how about Dan Hicks, the overnight guy for NBC getting some more air time?

All that said, both guys are in my opinion a little out of their best case scenario element.

Costas excels at baseball play by play.  He lives and breathes the game and does the game justice.  That said, if he got over his baseball purist ways a little (he still wishes the wild card was never created I'm sure), he'd maybe be holding Vin Scully's jock.

Lampley does a solid job of selling an event, no matter how crappy it turns out. Case in point again, HBO Boxing.  He's not Howard Cosell or Don Dunphy, but he calls a fight with great enthusiasm and makes a ho hum fight worth watching.  And anyone who can keep senile old Larry Merchant in line gets major kudos.

ObGameshows sorta: Costas was considered for 21...Lampley...well aside from an Eagle Eyes sunglasses infomercial, he twiddles his thumbs and finds new ways to break his surgically repaired hip.

Oh, and Chris, I think Jim's hair plugs need some work, lol.

Getting away from The Sports Machine...

Did any of our Philly area board inhabitants head to D&B to tryout tonight?

Alex Trebek used to do a lot of curling commentary back in the day.  Since everything's on tape, why not have him cover the matches in post.

Entertained the hour-and-a-half drive to Philly to see what's going on, but figured it wasn't worth it. I didn't know if I had to bring the posse they ask for if you send a video audition.

There is an Amazing Race tryout today in Philly, too. It's on KYW's site somewhere. My brother and I swear that would win that show if we were put on, but he's up at school.

Interesting.  For what it's worth, I noticed we're not the only ones wondering when the show will be back.  Take a look at what one of our paper's general TV/radio columnists said:

Quote
NEWS, NO NEWS: Ever since NBC aired five nights of a new game show, "Deal or No Deal," the week before Christmas - with cable repeats - Inside TV & Radio has been getting nearly daily calls or e-mails asking what happened to Howie Mandel's version of a show that has successful versions in other countries.

First off, nothing happened. It was only scheduled to air five nights in the week before Christmas.

But, more importantly, the show is due back on NBC sometime in the spring, don't know where, don't know when.

http://www.jsonline.com/enter/tvradio/jan06/385981.asp

I guess the show must be popular if the game show columnists online aren't the only ones being flooded with e-mails & calls.
