    NBC need only blame itself...

    ...when their ratings are in the toilet. It is too easy to find direct feeds on the 'net. I have argued the same thing about taped tennis. Who the heck wants to watch sports on tape when you already know who wins?

    My problem is that I do feel guilty to even be watching it. I thought we should boycott going to China. I tend to go back and forth between the human rights of those in China vs. the rights of American athletes to participate. At the very least, George Bush should have stayed home and made a point about China's problems.
