    @darrenrovell: The @NBCOlympics feed begins the events w/298K followers. Will be interesting where it is when games finish. Tweeting air rifle won’t help.

    Yeah, Americans love Rugby, Cricket, Field Hockey et al and don't give a shit about Tennis Players or Nascar drivers. I blame it on the socialism ingrained deeply in the American psyche.

    I like them because of the drama. They come along once every 4 years and for many athletes it's the goal of a life time and to win is the crowning achievement of their lives.

    How do you feel about Trampoline and people that pronounce the N in Badminton?

    Anyone know where to catch the French/USA basketball game? Are they just going to tape delay it?

    Batum is doing his "stand in the corner and wait for the kickout pass" routine in this game. He needs to get more involved... Team USA's defense is horrible so far.

    Yeah, I hope we don't get "the Batum that plays for France." Batman has been the Invisible Man.

    I have a feeling the majority of players playing against Team USA will become invisible men.

    I'd expect the Gasol's and Ginobili/Scola to play very well against team USA.

    I would agree if Scola wasn't Argentina's center all game.
