Do you even care about the Olympics?

Spot on. I actually like watching the actual event, not highlights, so when the networks made the decision to show only what they thought we thought was interesting, well, I lost interest.

At least they could have some kind of package for the gold medal winner from all the corporate mubo jumbo. Something like they'll pay for their school, or their kids or something. Or just get rid of the damn commercials all together!

Olympic coverage is on DirecTV on 750-753. FYI

Kobe Bryant
This was the oddity of the night. Behind the Chinese president and the entire national team, the one athlete who appeared to get the loudest ovation was none other than Kobe Bean Bryant. The moment was so odd that even U.S. journalists were looking at each other in puzzlement. The Russian, Chinese and American presidents were here, but Kobe was the head of state tonight

Like, they should be illegal...cuz, um, cuz... they just should.

well, i'll be damned. it'll be a shame if the mustache ride is nonexistent AND he's all covered up. maybe the euros haven't picked it up. *fingers crossed* i have no problem ogling those guys either.
