Are you getting better off-air reception with the new box?"If you're going to do it, you're going to do it right," athletic director Jim Schaus said. "If we're going to put 'Wichita State' across our chest, then every team is going to matter." -
WSU Shocker,
YES! One thing we've noticed, though, has been that during Olympic coverage ONLY, the box shuts off occasionally then comes right back on. Very annoying at times. :-x"She is only HALF a mother who does not see HER child in EVERY child." - AnonymousComment

What annoyed me even more was when they did an "Emergency Service Test" during live coverage of the woman's gymnastics final.Originally posted by shockandawe08

I got yelled at today at work by some customer for changing the channel on the tv TO THE OLYMPICS. We had had the tv on CNBC, which had Olympic coverage of boxing, and after it was over I changed it to NBC, which had the coverage of the USA men's volleyball team, and as she was walking out she comes up to me and goes in about the snobbiest voice you could imagine "Maybe you should make sure nobody is watching the tv before you change the channel."Comment

Michael has tied Mark Spitz by winning his 7th in the 100 meter butterfly by 1/100th of a second.Comment

Truly amazing! I thought when he won the 4x100 freestyle relay it couldn't get any closer then that. THEN THIS HAPPENS!!!Originally posted by Hotel PaperThe AssmanComment

I really thought Michael had come in second and when his mom held up two fingers, I knew she thought so too. The expression on her face was classic, as well as the guy standing in front of her. But it probably mirrored my own.
It was only after the Serbian protest was dismissed and I saw a slow-motion underwater review that I felt certain Phelps had truly won. Whew! :yahoo:
Added: And I was glad to see Spitz was more gracious in his interview this time. Not quite as egotistical, but still leaves some room for improvement. :D"She is only HALF a mother who does not see HER child in EVERY child." - AnonymousComment

There's more exciting stuff going on than this little thingy that goes on every four years.. like Chiefs' preseason football, Royals baseball, Little League World Series baseball, etc.
Phelps concludes the quest for 8 tonight at around 10, as Olympic swimming comes to an end this year.Deuces Valley.
... No really, deuces.

Mark really aquitted himself nicely when he interviewed with Phelps yesterday.....a really good comeback after he didn't handle the first part very well.Originally posted by shockandawe08
Frankly the video below is Mark Spritz in his better days.....the 440ish mark shows exactly how much gold he mined over the years.
PS I hope the genius of Radner, Shearer and Crystal is not lost on many of you.Comment
