Hate to start a new thread already, but anyone know if NBC is televising this?

I haven't seen it in any NBC schedule anywhere. My guess is that anyone in the USA who watches it will have to do so online "illegally".
Maybe some day our allegedly capitalist free-trade government will get off its collective ass and recognize that television programming is a product, like cars, clothes, and peaches, and will stop enacting laws which pander to the DRM/Copyright hysteria of the MPAA, RIAA, and TV networks.

Not on the schedule I'm sure it'll be on CCTV though.

Saw the match is at 8pm local time, no doubt it will be aired here.

This has been a great first set...I can't help but wonder how much energy Wang Yi Mei and the rest of the Chinese team would save if they didn't run laps after every point they score??

SCORE UPDATES>>>>>>>
Set#1 China is up 25-24. Much closer than I thought it would be.
Brazil had the lead most of this set and towards the set point China's libero had a nice save off a deflected ball and China was able to take the lead 24-23. Now its a seesaw battle.
Brazil just retook the lead at 26-25 of a stuff block of Wang. A good long rally to end set #1 with Brazil winning 27-25.
Also a note of interest....China's starting setter (Feng Kun?) is not starting.

Wang Yi Mei is a workhorse for China....but at times I think she is too prissy and don't exihibit too much athleticism.
Looks like Feng is setting to start set #2. Current score is 6-3 Brazil.
