I went into these games with low expectations and enthusiasm, because unlike twenty years ago, our sports viewing options are so much more varied. It used to be that the Olympics were unique and the only opportunity to see something besides the Big Three sports.
Still, the games have been compelling. What I've loved have been things like the two moments the other day, where Pommel Horse Guy helped the US win Bronze and then the US women's rugby team won as time expired for their Bronze. I love that we are celebrating Bronze medals, especially in sports that we don't dominate. If we took Bronze in basket ball, that's a disappointment, but when it's rugby? Awesome!
