Bob Costas on the wrestling referees wearing a suit and tie:
"What's with the officials wearing suits and ties? What happened, did they take a wrong turn on their way to judging the dog show?"
"you have to work hard in an olympic final" ....Wow, Bob.
"this will be a race from start to finish" ...Pure genius, Bob.
Opening ceremonies: Bob, tell us again for the 200th time about how the parade of nations is not in English alphabetical order.
"Next up is the Central African Republic located in central Africa." - Bob Costas

What Would Don Draper Do?
haven't been watching a lot of basketball in beijing, but you'd think michael redd would be getting more time with the US' poor 3 point shooting and the way the international game is played.

Three Wheelin'
Usain Bolt just destroyed the world record in the 100m sprint! 9.69 seconds. AND he eased up and started celebrating with about 15m to go.

My first time seeing the 100m finals.
He would have got in the 9.5's if he didn't shut it down. Bolt is a FREAK!! OMFG It wasn't even close.

Bolt breaks the typical sprinter convention by taking huge strides with his tall lanky frame. Next to the rest of the pack he looked like a mutant.
Gold Nike shoes ftw. lol

I noticed they only show boxing! What the fuck are they thinking?!
