And no. Haven't watched a minute of it.
The American-centric coverage by NBC bugs me too. So many other excellent athletes but if they're not Team USA, they get ignored - it's ridiculous.
I'm not athletic at all. Never have been and never will be. But I can live vicariously through the Olympic athletes.
The women's gymnastics are on now (taped) - I already know who won since it happened hours ago!
Also, on a side note, I think the Summer Games should be held permanently in Greece instead of countries bidding and then going broke building infrastructure.
