I was glad I was watching when she broke it. Really has been a lot of good stuff to watch even though the US is underperforming. The coverage here is a about a flamboyant figure skater who likes Xanax and drinking. And the fact we have two Olympians who are out of the closet.
Aye, the US medal count is currently below expectations / averages. However, we are strong in some of the remaining events that will close out the competition, so the end result may be better. Stay tuned.
I don't think it's a fair characterization to say that the coverage has been all salacious nonsense. I thought the coverage of the Super G, figure skating, ice dancing, slopestyle, bobsled and-most importantly of all-hockey has been very good. Last night's 'limited commercial interruption' coverage of women's hockey finals was superb television!
