THE OLYMPICS

In the last few years, I have taken a great interest in certain sports. Aside from watching a little football here and there, I really could care less who won and who lost at something. But now, my head hurts and stomach gets in knots when a sporting event I am watching is close. When the team I am rooting for is losing, I experience mild depression. This is the first Olympics I remember watching and even caring about. Someone asked me who I'm rooting for, the USA or China, and I gotta say without reservation-USA. However, if the committees that make the rules and provide the judges, can't make the call right, and get the ages of the cometitors right, I'm tuning out in 2012.

Fortunately, I stumbled on this blog from Yahoo that provides a little levity in their writing.

Now, you'll have to excuse me, I need to get Sean enrolled in a gymnastics class, 2012 is just around the corner.
