I actually liked Al Trautwig's commentary. He is very pleasant and I
think he truly enjoys xc racing. He has been doing it a long time now
and I think he has a pretty good handle on things. He has good rhythm
to his commentary and his genuineness comes through--no artificial
intonations. I'll probably get blasted for this, but I'll say it
anyhow--I think he is a great credit to American Olympic broadcasting.
His sidekick Paul Robbins was superb, adding the expertise.

That's the good. As far as everything else, NBC should be ashamed of
its so-called Olympic coverage. Nothing that mattered was live.
Pathetic. Need I say more?

No offense to Trautwig and Robbins.
