Ome minor enhancement to the olympics. For the platform divers, make them dive into a little 4x4 foot pool. You can keep the water as deep as it is, just shrink the target a bit. I bet this would make it a little bit more interesting.

Serena is absolutely destroying Sharapova in the gold medal match!! 6-0 first set, and then started out 3-0 in the second set before Sharapova finally won a game. (6-0, 5-1 now, about to serve for final game and the gold)

Anybody just see the double amputee qualify in the 400m? That's what the Olympics is all about. Fullfilling your dream. That was awesome

NBC is taking so long to get to the swimming I'm starting not to care. Track & Field is great, but come on.

I agree. Probably the last thing they show to keep you watching. I turned it to reruns of Storage Wars.

He looked great in the semi, but Bolt is just a freak of nature. Seen on Twitter that 100m he just ran would have equaled a 3.94 40.
