Challenge: come up with a list of 5 things that are better than Channel 7's Olympics coverage.

1. Hanging toenails - at least you don't have to suffer through them for three weeks.
2. Parking tickets - technically you did something wrong, so you deserve the punishment. What did we do to deserve the punishment 7 is dishing out?
3. Internet popup ads - they offer you different options to what you're looking at. Channel 7 has a bunch of digital channels... but chooses to show the same thing on every single one. At least the popup ads give you a chance to look at something else, even if it is an online insurance scam.
4. Saddam Hussein - it took a year to find him. At this pace, Australians will never find an online TV guide that shows when Channel 7 is showing events.
5. Two and a Half Men - Charlie Sheen might be arrogant, smug, and make terrible jokes... but at least he's technically playing a character. What's Sandy Roberts' excuse?

Seriously, go to Channel Seven's Yahoo7 website and look at the fan forum - it's filled with threads complaining how we can't find out what events are live, when they're going to be shown, how every digital channel is showing the same thing, the website isn't streaming any events AND Channel 7 bought the rights to BLOCK websites from overseas that are streaming the events to their home countries. Apparently Channel Nine has the 2012 Olympics. I like Nine. I hope they do the biz.
