Watch out – I’m about to become an expert in a bunch of sports I know nothing about.
NBC Olympic coverage is annoying. I mean, of course there are a ton of commercials, I can understand that, but stop with the stories. I don’t want the stories, I want the events. SHOW MORE EVENTS. Tomorrow, I’ll see how they handle it on the website.
I watched some swimming today, and whatever the long cycling race was today. I saw the accident the Dutchwoman in the lead had – it was AWFUL. I thought she’d broken her back, and there was NO coverage of it while the race was still going on. Luckily, there’s Google (and it had happened a couple of hours before – turns out I wasn’t watching it live), so I found out she had a concussion and some minor fractures, but was NOT dead or lying on the side of the road with a broken neck. It was really upsetting to watch.
Anyway, now we’re watching gymnastics and lots of uplifting stories about teenagers. And that one 41-year-old.
