    You won't see *every* sport even if you watch all night. The only way to see Taekwondo, at least locally, is to watch online. But -- as far as I know, this is the first Olympics where I can actually view all the matches online. Sure, they still don't bother to provide commentary, but at least I can watch it. That thrills me.

    When I heard about the 33 year old gymnast -- and saw her win a silver medal -- well. To me, that is way more amazing than a 41 year old swimmer. But I admit I don't know much about either sport.

    I was really happy to see the 33yo 'German' gymnast win the silver. Phenomenal.
