Never mind, switched to IE and got it. (After kicking and swearing at it a few times.)
It wont load. How do I switch to IE?
I just posted on the other thread that I’m getting it on NBC broadcasting over-the-air (FREE) HD television (Washington DC area digital Channel 4.3)
SOOOO much better on a 60" flat screen HDTV than having to watch it on my computer screen.
Oooo- just got it to work.
Who’s leading, and which Americans have aleady gone? I turned it on during Hilay’s round.
Christina Libherr (I know that’s probably wrong) from Switzerland and No Mercy are leading.
Rich Fellers and Danielle Torano went according to the order of go, but I didn’t see them.
Beezie had one rail (the out of the two stride)
Richard Spooner had two down with Ace, while being very fast
Michelle Spadone had the last rail (went for a flyer, horse couldn’t do it)
And you saw Hilary, who I thought rode great
I guess by now you know that Rich Fellers is sitting second.
Christine McCrea had a slow(ish) clear (even though she did 4 in the 3!)
amazing feed, great commentary, no commercials. I’m yelling at the computer, great time!
Thanks for the recap!
Ashlee Bond had an early rail (jump #4) and a medium time, but rode aggressively and well (as usual).
I watched her at all the California shows, and she is a really game and tough rider. So congrats to her!
I remember seeing Ashlee win at Harrisburg on a small (or medium?) pony. I guess that was quite a while ago by now! :lol:
I thought it was cute that they played California Girl after her round, and she had a big smile at that.
Wow, Sapphire was fantastic! Yay for them.
Sapphire went wonderfully, and is sitting 3nd. Rich Fellers is just behind him in 4th (after being the first rider in the ring).
Meredith Michaels-Beerbaum and Shutterfly took over the lead. That has got to be the best horse in the world (indoors, at least).
For the Canadians: both Ian Millar and Keean White had 8 faults. Ian was very fast, but In Style didn’t handle the speed as well as some other horses. Keean was great, but knocked down the last 2 fences. Too bad.
Final Update:
Kent Farrington had a jump down at #4.
Mandy Porter had a really unfortunate early rail at the second jump, then was really fast and good afterwards. Still ended up 15th.
Top four didn’t change: Meredith MB, Christina Libherr, McLain, then Rich.
It has been amazing to watch! I loved seeing Ian Millar, he’s such a classy rider. I enjoyed watching MMB, Marcus Ehning, Albert Zoer, McLain, and Daniel Etter. I really thought Rodrigo was going to eat it at that oxer.
Melanie Smith said that the finals are “never” coming back to Vegas, and probably not to the US–why?
Thanks for updates for us who are blocked out up here.
For those who are blocked on their computers – at the top of the webpage for Universal Sports is a link “Find Our Channel” to see if your local NBC station is carrying the broadcast on their digital stations. Click on this link, enter your zip code and how you get your TV broadcasting - cable, roof-top antenna, dish, etc (make sure you scroll all the way down the list to find your method of receiving broadcasts), and it will tell you if you have a station that is carrying the sports broadcast.
Since Universal Sports are part of NBC, they are broadcasting it for all over-the-air (free) antenna reception for digital television on stations nationwide. Look for it on your digital NBC.3 or NBC-3 or NBC.03 station. The TV broadcast is at the same time as the schedule shown on the website.
Watching the equestrian competition in high def digital on a wide screen TV sure beats watching it on that small computer screen via internet streaming.
What nothing for Friday Dressage… ???
You can also watch yesterday’s show by clicking on the video button and watch it on demand.
My on-demand is not working and I’m using IE.
Why can we hear the announcers but the video just stops all the time. I am trying to watch Steffen. What am I doing wrong?
