Olympic views
Watched the London Olympics at Huber's last night. My issue with the NBC coverage for the Olympics this year is that it's all "time delayed" (no one uses tape anymore, so why way tape-delayed??) and they only show you what they want you to see (kind of like 1 week of recordings for Survivor, then choking it down to 40 minutes on the air). So far it's very heavy on gymnastics and swimming. It doesn't help them that all of the results are already available from other sources as soon as it happens...I also watch occasionally through Xfinity online. Also, I'm not a fan-boy for Phelps. He's certainly NOT the greatest Olympic athlete of all time. I will concede that he is the most successful. There was a great article in the Chicago Tribute a couple of days ago that says it all. Lochte is WAY to full of himself and never built on his initial swim on day 1. He's like a short fuse...burned out fast.
