    Gee, fingers get pointed rather quickly in here now don't they. :D

    I'm up for some riveting posting about the badminton. ;)

    Or some totally appropriate female athlete pictures. :D

    The Olympics....where nationalism and xenophobia are celebrated!

    Just kidding, I like the Olympics. France and USA women's game was interesting to say the least today.

    did all of the beach volleyball players get together and decide that they were all going to wear the least amount of clothes possible? i'm not sure how being practically naked helps you win beach volleyball games.. but, i like it!

    The fact that there's a link to a gallery of bikini babes shows the seriousness of the story. :D

    I read an article here in the last day or so that they may wear leotards and long sleeve tops due to the cold,rainy weather expected in GB for the games. Sounds like the sport won't be so 'compelling' this time around...:(

    How can you not have marquee events played live? I know primetime BS and all that, but in this day and age with the internet, Twitter, Facebook, etc. almost everyone knew Lochte won before they even showed it....

    Poor move NBC.

    They are showing everything live here- even though its like 4am in the morning, and then highlights packages during prime time later in the day, for those who didn't get up. :)
