O. S. D.

I'm not normally a huge Olympics fan, although I usually enjoy the Summer Olympics more than it's colder brother, Mr. Winter Olympics.

That said, these Beijing Olympics have been captivating throughout. I have been hooked to the TV, even watching tape delay contests, because the competition has been great throughout. From the obvious like Michael Phelps' record-setting performance and Usain Bolt's complete domination of the 100 & 200 making him the World's Fastest Man to the less publicized events like some great Water Polo matches and crazy crashes in the BMX time trials, these Games have lived up to the old NBC hype/motto - Must See TV.

Although some of the channel listings and games have been tough to find at times, once you got the hang of the timing and/or used nbcolympics.com, there have been so many great events to watch.

All this Must See TV leaves me suffering from O. S. D. due to the time difference. But I'll deal with the Olympic Sleep Deprivation for a little while longer if these great contests continue.

Enough writing...this USA/Serbia volleyball match is becoming yet another classic from these games!
