I'm addicted and my sleep schedule is suffering. I cant remember an olympics, even when I had the time to watch (!) that I've been more interested. The Phelps story helps - he's simply amazing and has done wonders for some US Pride. I've been watching swimming, rowing, gymnastics, indoor volleyball and now track. I definitely agree with the earlier post that the Chinese gymnasts are too young. The NYTs found PROOF that at least 2 of them are 14. The only reason why the US Gymanstics association didnt file a formal complaint was for fear of retribution during judging. It's so sad; it completely destroys the purpose of the Olympics. I've also been interested in some of the stories, like the double amputee runner and the swimmer from South Africa that is swimming in the open water competition (tonight!) with only one leg. It is absolutely inspiring. NBC has had WAAAY more coverage than previous years (I believe the number is around 3600 total hrs) and their streaming service has been far better than anticipated.
The streaming service is good - but no audio commentary. At least there wasn't on Triathlon.


Still...better than nothing. I hope they'll leave that video available for a while.
