I guess this belongs under our Olympic Blunder subject line, but I could not resist changing the header.
I am watching the US-Spain Water Polo match this morning, recorded yesterday, looks like at Noon PT on NBC. This is evidence that NBC really is showing events like this live - with about 2'48" left in the first quarter, they showed an underwater replay of a foul that resulted in an exclusion - the foul was one player grabbing the swimsuit of another and, I'm sure surprisingly for NBC, the result in this case was a boob momentarily but clearly falling out if its encasement and being fully exposed. I thought I saw a nipple, went back and looked again, then did a search and saw a story on it on deadspin: http://deadspin.com/5930908/nbc-aired-a-bare-breast-during-live-water-polo-coverage-today Not sure if NBC has laughed about this on any of their studio shows today, I am a bit behind on my Olympic watching. The color analyst (a former US player on the woman's team) is talking over the replay about the rough and tumble of water polo, and then seems to notice the exposed boob, as she has the slightest hesitation and then hint of a smile in her voice. Her male play by play partner does not seem to have noticed the boob, as he follows up by saying something like: "well, its got to really tick you off when you play so hard and somebody pulls your suit". She handles it with grace and competence, and they go on without addressing it directly. Who needs beach volleyball? -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People!
