This is the Olympics. Why so many empty seats at the men's event?

any live streams?

I'm watching here.

3S - she hangs on, unison quite off

3STh - tilted, twofooted

Some smaller mistakes, but they keep themselves on their feet. Very simple elements and choreo.

I'd say because technically the Olympics haven't even started yet.

I still think they're a long shot for bronze, but they could possibly get it if the American women don't do well (and if the pairs here screw up).

Germans follow Christopher Walken's advice: more cowbell!

I just started watching the NBC Olympics feed and what a joy to have some knowledgeable commentators.

I hope they don't throw Johnny/Tara on the feeds when the individual competitions start up and keep with these Aussies (I think Aussies?). (Incidentally, he just said after the Chinese's triple loop: "She could've changed the lightbulbs while she was up there."

Peng/Zhang were very good there.

Looking like Canada is going to get another 3rd place here. Russia's gold to lose

I mean Duhamel / Radford can and have scored higher than that, but they are prone to screwing up so my hopes are low there.
