Yeah, I'm watching. I like some sports and I like to see people who are trying to achieve some personal bests. The nationalistic thing has become way overplayed and the cost od staging the events has become ridiculous, but then again, so has everything else. Been to a ballgame lately?

The Betty Cuthbert story was also inspiring. Certainly a neat lady and one who makes you feel that life is worth the effort.

My biggest regret is the lack of sailing coverage, especially since this is in Sydney, Australia.
