So, someone's not going to watch the remaining 15 days of the Olympics, because she was on day one...

OK then.

Oh, I was being a bit harsh.
But I guess the brass at NBC thought that they'd improve things by not trying
a repeat of their sad experiement with Jim McKay at the Salt Lake Winter Olympics.
They forgot to give the head chipmunk the gong.

Actually I'm sympathetic to NBC's struggle with the Olympics. It's much harder to
promote in an age of endless alternatives in cable/dish TV etc.
Not to mention that the Olympics really had a lot of the wind go out of the sails
with the fall of the Soviet Bloc. It's just not the good v. evil life-and-death
struggle against chemically-enhanced East German females that it used to be.
