Prepping for the Olympics

This year we're going to have unparalleled access to the games with NBC Universal offering over 3600 hours of coverage (2200 of which will be online at NBCOlympics.com). The coverage will be broadcasted on the seven NBC Universal networks plus a few channels dedicated solely to soccer and basketball.

Oh... the olympics...its only once every 4 years. Still.. not worth getting excited for. Anyone remeber that we are still at war? in two countries? Our economy is shot and unemployment is rising?
No? oh yah! it's the olympics! Wake me when it's over.

It should be fun to watch all the athletes trying to perform while wearing masks to protect them from the toxic Beijing air.

For the sake of the atheletes I hope the air quality stays as clean as possible throughout the games. I hate the politics and the ridiculous pompousness that surround the olympics, but the the amount of heart and training that the atheletes put in over 4 years just to have a chance to compete over a 2 week period shouldn't be destroyed b/c Beijing can't get its act together and clean up their city.Originally Posted by Joe Schmoe

I'm not excited at all, yet, but I know that I'll enjoy watching some of the events once they are on TV. I've always enjoyed the gymnastics, although I still have trouble watching the girls on the balance beam - just too much stress, as they seem to fall off so much.

I'm looking forward to the political fall-out of China pretending it's not Communist while everyone is there. It's about the most uncomfortable thing their country has had to go through in the past 100 years. There's already talk about them putting pressure on journalists. That and the allegations of electronic spying via the hotels and the national Internet system.

I have zero doubt that they are doing that. I also have no doubt that they aren't the only country that does it, including our own.
