Anchoring the Olympics

Caught a good new blog today you should check out.. http://swallowaknife.blogspot.com/


The only Olympic sports I can get into are the ones you don't ever see on TV.. That 4x100 relay was one of the best moments in all of sports.

Always find it funny that the last leg of a relay is called an anchor, especially in a swimming event. Seems like they could have used another word.

Watching the NBC telecast of the Women's gymnastic's yesterday, it became pretty apparant that Béla Károlyi (who does commentary for the peacock channel) has just become a Dick Vitale type hack. I thought he was going to pop an artery right on stage.


It always seems to me that if you have a clear blue sky that the stock market does well.. No idea why, I'll track it for you.

Has the Florida vs Georgia SEC matchup now been officially surpassed as the best rivalry by the Russia-Georgia rivalry?

David Axelrod is following the Karl Rove play book in one respect, he doesn't seem to care about his personal appearance what so ever.. With that Bela Karolyi mustache and that Jeff George haircut he could almost pass for Ron Jeremy.. I guess Axelrod can pretend he's got a big one and Rove's head just looks like a big one.

Focus on the Family Action has pulled a video from its Web site that had asked people to "pray for rain" of biblical proportions in Denver on the day Obama is scheduled to make his acceptance speech at MileHigh stadium..

If it works I'll be screaming that Parcells didn't try this in the AFC championship in January '99.
