Clearly NBC doesn't air the special olympics because all the athletes are too busy making programming decisions.

The guy who designed the set NBC's been using was designed by a guy who went to my high school.

Given the track record of people from my high school being involved in TV, maybe it was a good ol' 'murrican eye infection Costa's got.

Southwestern Ohio.

I hope that the set is what hosed up Costas's eye. It's this region's only shot at contributing good to the world.

I was disappointed by the lack of dogs in the events. I am also worried about what happened to all the dogs, I stopped hearing about them from the athletes and all that. Did they just get used to the dogs being around or did they all disappear? :ohdear:

I could see some backlash for "exploiting" them. The commercials would have to carefully crafted charity campaigns.

I feel like my relationship with Canada, as an American is kind of like Dennis and Charlie in It's Always Sunny. Like when Dennis is ranting about how he never wants Charlie to be happy and stuff and everyone's like chill out dude.

Can't believe I'm rooting for Sweden.
