Yeah, I would say I'm pretty excited about the upcoming games, I enojy watching the Olympics and all, but I definitely prefer the winter games, what with the hockey and the other ice/snow sports (hey, what can I say, I'm Canadian ). Also, it always seems with the summer games that the coverage tends to focus on a few areas, like swimming and track, and that Does get a little tedious after the fifth or sixth time they cut from something else to show a 100m dash heat.

Along that line, something that annoys me about the coverage is that it often shows a every possible moment of a few sports (track, swimming, gymnastics, and I'm sure a few I can't think of) while ignoring many others (I'm thinking of Equestrian and Sailing specifically, but there are lots more). Ah well, I know that there is only so much time to show highlights and events, but I'd still like a more balanced covering - I guess that's what the internet is for !

...Despite my rantings, I do hope Athens can somehow manage to pull it off this year, and we can still have a good games.
