hey, does anyone know if channel 7 (i guess for those in sydney) will be broadcasting any badminton in their olympic coverage? I really don't care if it's at an indecent time, as long as they've got some footage!
The answer is probably not - SBS is the second Olympic channel and has some coverage, see post http://www.badmintonforum.com/vb/showthread.php?t=17327
HAHA....Ch 7 showing badminton????? they might ask what kind of sport that is - eventhough it is something like the second biggest sport in the world behind soccer. Go SBS.....
