A few quick postscripts for today:
* Men's gymnastics may be this Olympics' pairs figure skating. Apparently, the main judge for the high bar told the US team a couple of days ago that part of the routines of two gymnasts would be judged at a different point level than in the past - such as at the last world championships. Not sure if any other competitors were hurt by this (NBC's not said anything), but it seems odd.
* Picking up on Cooch's question as to this Olympics' breakout event, Bob Costas put forth badminton.
* I was sick of Michael Phelps before the Games even started. You can imagine where I am with him now.
* Sport that seems less dubious now: synchronized diving. Didn't see much of it from Sydney (not like I sought it out), but after seeing it the last couple of days I've got a much higher opinion. The coverage has been pretty good here, one of the few times the commentators and the technology come together to clearly illustrate what happened. Tune into this when volleyball isn't on.
