Like really who is going to sit and really WATCH the olympics?

All we want is the highlights anymore.
Actually, the exact opposite is true in my case. The highlights are pretty pointless to me. Watching history made live, with national pride on the line - the feeling I get when watching the Olympics can't be conjured up in an 8 second "highlight".

Re: Ok

I'd rather watch someone who's working to fix our nations problems than worry about vanity issues such as pride. Getting tired of watching family members suffer due to high gas prices..

This coming from FloMo, eh? Then tell your family members to get rid of their trucks, or live in a place with less sprawl.

Fort Wayne, IN		 Watch CSPAN then. A 100m sprinter isn't going to lower gas prices, so he/she might as well do something that they love to do.
