Random Olympic observation.

I think the US women's rowing eight team is about the most visibly happy group I've ever seen getting medals.

Edited to add: Is anyone else as tired of the diving commentators as I am?

Shoot, rowing is one of the handful of events that I really would've liked to have seen...

I was more or less in a TV black-out as far as the olympics go the past week, since we had no NBC affiliates on the TV--there was a smattering of BBC coverage, which was sort of the other extreme from NBC's personal-interest-tripe--they had clips of track and field events back-to-back, no commentary except who was in lead, and only the last minute or two of each of the longer events, so I didn't even have a chance to keep track or get into anything.
