Lots of people have been complaining that NBC isn't airing any of the Sochi Games live. Which isn't exactly true. There's nothing live in primetime because of the time difference.

But you can watch some events live on cable during the day. Like the figure skating pairs gold medal final (8 a.m. MT on NBCSN). If, that is, you don't have a job or have to attend school.

If you do, you can watch it on tape-delay in primetime.
