Okay, here’s my blog post about trying to find those Olympic volleyball games online:
So, I really wanted to watch some of the Olympic volleyball matches. You know, get into the spirit of things! I figured it would be easy peasy to find them online. Boy, was I wrong!
First, I started with a simple Google search. You know, just typed in “Olympics volleyball games online”. I got a bunch of results, but most of them were just news articles and schedules. Nothing to actually watch the games.
Then, I remembered about some of the big sports networks. I checked out their websites, hoping they’d have live streams or replays. I clicked around for ages, wading through menus and submenus. It felt like a maze! I found some clips and highlights, but no full games. Frustrating!
I even tried looking on some of those, uh, less official streaming sites. You know the ones I mean. But those were a total mess. Pop-up ads everywhere, and the video quality was awful. Plus, I was a little worried about getting a virus or something.

Next, I thought, “Maybe there’s a dedicated Olympics website?” So I searched for that. And yeah, there is one! It looked promising. But, after some more clicking, I realized most of the full-game replays were locked behind some kind of subscription or paywall. Ugh.
I spent a good hour or two going down this rabbit hole. I tried different search terms, browsed through forums, and even checked social media to see if anyone had posted links. Nothing. Zip. Nada.
Finally, I gave up. It was way harder than I thought it would be! I guess I’ll just have to stick to the highlights for now. Or maybe try to catch them on TV. It’s a bummer, though. I really wanted to watch those full games online. Maybe next time!
