SPOILER: NBC must really think everybody knows the results before showing a tape-delayed race, or else someone was asleep at the switch. The network ran a "Today" show promo about interviewing Missy Franklin on her swimming gold medal — just BEFORE televising the race.

NBC is unbelievably bad, but let us all remember CBS and Tim McCarver... it could be worse
