Yeah. Remember when the olympics on tv meant sports, rather than barbara walters-style interviews with figure sk8ers and curlers who rose to stardom from the depths of the Vancouver 'hood?

Preach on, my brother.
And remember when the Olympics gave you a chance to watch sports and athletes from other countries you wouldn't necessarily watch otherwise? I fucking hate those athlete stories. How many different ways can you say, "rags to sports riches" (which doesn't necessarily relate to cash, which I know because they shove that storyline down our throat too)?
Just show as many events as you can, hire good sportscasters and remember, most people in this country came from other countries, so diversify on the fucking coverage.
