Another Olympic rant

In the words of Bart Simpson, "I didn't think it was possible, but that both sucks and blows."
Another reason to root against the americans: it reduces greatly the chances that the event will be shown in primetime, and thus only partially (except for swimming, track, gymnastics, and (ugh) basketball).

On a separate olympic note, I watched the men's (is that right, dtb?) water polo game yesterday. Holy shit what an exhausting sport that must be to play. It's not like soccer (and, now, american-style basketball), where you can just stand resting when the play is away from you. Good stuff.
