NBC wins GOLD 
NBC has strived hard but looks as though it will win the Gold in
In-depth athlete coverage. No news service has ever done so much
or worked so hard at giving the citizens of the world such a look
into the history and life of so many athletes. 
Phil Donahue is eating his heart out at the coverage that we have 
seen so far in this years Olympics. Ophra and Jenny Whats-r-name
couldn't have given the world so much coverage of the lives of 
what seems to be each and every medal contender at this years Atlanta
games.
However NBC's (Not Better Coverage) coverage of the actual games thus 
far have not even put them in contention for water bearer for the Lower 
Slombovian pocket pool Olympic team.  
Folks, I'm sure you know where I'm headed with this. Where the hell
are the games themselves. NBC has thus far spent 2/3rds of its on air
time doing interviews and in depth histories. If would spend half the
time they spent on interviews and devoted that time to the coverage of
the games and events we'd be in great shape. But will they. I say to 
thee. Nay. NOYFLife. Not this year. They got a bunch of yahoo's who
would rather spend there time and energies mugging to the camera's 
and showing us what incredible knowledge they have of each and every
event and athlete they have. And too hell with the event itself.
Too tell you the truth I've just about had it up to here with beautiful
interviewers and they're gift for gab. Hell the commercials are a welcome
break to they're innane chater. (I personally liked the one where the
bullfrogs hitch the ride on the 'gator) NBC's got me chearing for old
Gold pretzel boy. I wanna see so games. Where's the Esquestrian events,
the boxing, the track and field, the anything other than the damn pretty
people. Hey Dr. Kovorkian where are you when we need you. The progaming
director at NBC sports needs your assistance. If I have to see one more
replay of that girl writhing in agony over a twisted ankle, I'm gonna
scream. If want agony I'll turn on the evening news. What I want is sports,
events, coverage of the games themselves. PLEASE
Sorry 'bout that but I had to get it out of my system. I feel much
better now, that isn't true btw, but I felt obligated to say it.
But now that I've gotten that out of way. How are ya'all doing? I hope
fine.
Clem
