Today I start 3 months of parental leave, looking after my lovely baby girl.
Well, I thought that Channel 9's Winter Olympic Games coverage could not get any worse, but it did. They showed complete disregard for the event and sports fans by joining coverage of the ice hockey final in the third period. Canada Vs USA is probably the biggest Winter Games event for decades. When they deigned to show us the game, it was already 2-1 to Canada.
Thankfully they graciously allowed us to see the extra time period.

Now they are showing us the first two periods, as if they are doing us a favour.

Eddie Maguire, Mick Molloy, homophobic comments, too much talk, not enough action and now this.
