Other Olympic Observations

I wonder at what point the US media will stop displaying the "MEDAL COUNT" graphic as a measure of success.

Never. They do it in every Olympics.

Oddly enough, they forgot to include Kazakhstan in their medal count yesterday...

There is a female announcer for the rowing/canoeing events.
The beach volleyball uniform is a bathing suite. For women a bikini, but with 60 degree temps that too cold so at least the US women are wearing what appears to be wet suit tops over the bikinis. The men are wearing what they typically wear, swim trucks and tank tops. That's pretty standard for the pro beach tour, and actually if they aren't filming on the beach tour they'll just wear swim trucks and no tops at all. Now what some of the women are wearing I have no idea.

I feel for the female US gymnasts. Every single one of them - they finish their routines, and the first thing they have to do is pull their uniforms out of their cracks. Every. Single. One. I think the designers didn't take muscular butts into account when designing. I wouldn't want my crack on international TV.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! I have noticed this too!

The male divers do a fair amount of 'adjusting' as well.
