OlympicsWatch, Day 3

The US women's ice hockey team takes on Germany on USA network, while the NBC coverage will have the men's downhill skiing final, men's singles luge finals, and a raft of short-track speed skating. CNBC will have other women's ice hockey games as well.

We've not watched the entire opening ceremony yet, but we did find one thing odd about the first hour: Turin is referred to as Torino, yet all the other Italian cities are called by their English names. If you're going to use Torino, you should really also use Roma, Firenze, Milano, and the like.
