Respect, Steves - cushy number.
I've spent the last couple of weeks in the good ole United States of USA and fuck me their Olympics coverage is shite.
Michael Phelps,
Michael Phelps,
12 yr old gymnast,
Michael Phelps,
Michael Phelps' Mum,
Beach Volleyball (...so some fringe benefits)
and that's it. They only show the american & maybe one other competitor, don't show all the heats - just the one with them in, so you get no sense of the build up. Shit, shit and shit.
Now I'm de-jetlagged I'll be catching up with I-player. The BMX was excellent this morning though - good crash action in the mens.
I like Kenney's comment about Hoy: “He's only human and he's got strengths and weaknesses.” When then asked to name those weaknesses, he paused and answered: “Maybe not weaknesses, just weaker strengths.” Tough.
