Okay I just have to get this off my chest...
Swimming-Yay, great job everyone! Congrats Phelps on doing such a fabulous job, but when you interrupt an elimination match at a very intense moment and cut out sections of the game so everyone can watch the swimmers walk into the swimming pool I want to scream!!!
Dalhaueser and Rogers were tied with the Swiss 1 set a piece; on to the last game-a race to 15 points-and the media cuts out to see Phelps walking into the swim cube. What? They return to the volleyball game with a score of 6-0 (U.S. down). We miss seeing the first few plays. This is a little frustrating, but then after intensely watching the U.S. come all the way back and tie it up at 9-9... they do it again and cut out to watch the women's 200m backstroke. AAARRGGHHHHH! Lucky us, they get back to this incredibly important volleyball set where the score is now 14-13 (in favor of the U.S.). Our boys side out for the win (OH YEAH) and we celebrate. Wahoo! I'm so glad I know how it ended, but for heaven's sake-replay the two minute swim match later and let us finish the game properly!
And now-the undefeated U.S. mens indoor volleyball team is playing China while we watch qualifying races.
Stupid Media...

Can you watch it online?
Every year during the super bowel my dad tells us about how one year the super bowel game went into over time and the station cut into the game to play the movie Heidi which was supposed to be aired after the game.
Sometimes they do stupid things.
You make me laugh!! I loved watching the volleyball match. FUN!! I could totally see Zac out there. :)
