It's Happening Again
Every four years, I swear I'm not going to get hooked on watching the Summer Olympics.
And every four years, enough of the sports get shown on the various cable channels, and I start watching things like sculling, water polo, team handball... you get the picture.
Right now, I'm watching the soon-to-be former Olympic sport of Women's Softball. I have no idea if it's live (I finally got NBCOlympics.com to refresh - it is most definitely live, and team USA is winning 1-0 with two innings to go). It's compelling stuff.
