Am I handling the Olympic coverage this year?

I've been watching the Greek coverage of the Olympics which basically consists of a lot of failure.
 
When will they get to the good stuff? I'm sick of volleyball and swimming already.
 
Baseball and lightweight boxing today zzzzz

Stoked for USA vs Spain men's bball tomorrow at 10 AM my time THAT IS EASTERN STANDARD TIME SEE HOW I'M NOT A GOAT FUCKER WHO DOESN'T SPECIFY A TIME ZONE? IT WAS NOT VERY FUCKING HARD, I DID IT WITH HARDLY THINKING AT ALL, LOOK I CAN EVEN POINT OUT IT'S TECHNICALLY EDT B/C WE'RE STILL IN DAYLIGHT SAVINGS HOLY SHIT I'M LIKE A FUCKING ROCKET SCIENTIST OF TIME ZONES COMPARED TO THOSE PIGFUCK SHITBRAINS AT USABASKETBALL.COM
 
I have seen a lot of boxing, but no wrestling, I'm pretty sure Greco-Roman is in there somewhere.

My understanding is that it has more genital-touching than RAW type wrestling, but the outfits are less gay so it's kind of a break-even.

Also I should have mentioned the women's all-around was pretty good last night, not just because the Americans came in 1/2, but because it felt pretty close up until the floor routine. (I fell asleep though after the third event though, and had to catch up in the morning.)
 
I watched some hurdling last night. I think it's funny how they put a water jump in. Seems a bit random. Why make them jump over water? LOL, crazy sports.

I watched some rowing this morning. Australia were in the lead but then Britain pushed forward to overtake them at the last second and won gold. Exciting, if anything!
 
Obviously Michael Phelps thing last night was crazy, I can't believe he actually won that, in the last 5 meters he still looked to be several feet behind.

Actually though, what I thought was most exciting last night was the American Men's beach volleyball team (1st in the world) almost getting eliminatec by the Swedes. This is what I gathered of it:

- you win 2 sets to take the match
- win or go home (both teams had lost a previous match and were in the loser's bracket)

The Americans trounced them in the first set, which was what was expected. But then in the second, the Swedes won decisively, by 7 points (out of 25). They started off the third set 6-0 Sweden, but the US came back to make it close after that. It came down to the last few serves, with Sweden serving with the game 23-24, chance to make their own destiny, but the US squeaked through.

I'm sure I made that sound super boring, but it was actually really great. I like watching an underdog (SWE) give a great fight, obviously it's best if they can win.
 
I watched women's basketball yesterday. I stopped watching before the game was over but it looked like the US was going to win against New Zealand.
