According to the NBC marketing dude, no one with a penis actually cares about the Olympics these days. I know I don't.


PS. I know it has been years since I last posted, but someone stole my damn Peter Puck picture that was under my name. WTF?

Haven't seen any of it. Zero interest.

I was rooting for Iraq and South Africa against Brazil in soccer.

That is all.

I'm enjoying parts of it, especially the Russians all getting booed loudly &n Lilli King talking trash & backing it up.

+1.

I'll never look at the Olympics the same ever again after watching that HBO Real Sports special.

I knew some things were dishonest and corrupt but I never knew how deep and widespread it truly is.

Keep it.

I like the winter olympics because of my fascination with curling and I am weird and like watching skiing on TV, but the summer ones are boring. Plus the few times I have flipped to NBC they are just talking about the events and not actually showing any.

I usually will watch a little, but have't caught any of it other than having the opening ceremony on in the background.

I was hoping Genie Bouchard would win because she's hot AF, but I guess she's out.
