Do you guys agree? Is Olympics all about GYM, Swimming, and Phelps? I am saying that becuase thats what they show most on NBC. I know they have many items under those categories, and a huge hope for US. And its true.... But they should not only focus on Phelps. You can't miss that guy... How about the guy from Turkey who won the gold in weight lifting? He has better stories than Phelps... How about the guy from Mongolia who won a medal in Judo. Coming from countires like that where they had not expected medals, or even other countries that has send only one athlete to this games. I m sure that would be fascinating to hear their stories. Such as the girl from Palestine who is taking part in Athletics.... --------------------------------------------------------------- Another comment---- These comentators know too much. I know some of the are former Olympians, but I get annoyed when they talk. They sometimes don't explain good. For instance the case where the Judge ordered the US team to change the routing in GyM. But on the TV, those guys didn't explain much. They say "Oh My Gosh" and stuff, but don't explain why they said that............. -------------- But the technical aspect is good. --- ------------------------------ Overall---I think they should also focus on to other events ---US is a MELTING pot after all. Anyways the coverage is better than Sydney interms of the timing. The time difference is huge between US and Australia, than Greece, and US. --- Thats all for now....Later....
