I wanted to make this a poll but couldn't figure out how to do it!
Do people think that the swimming finals should be moved ot the mornig so that they will be on during the evening prime time here inthe States? Many different swimming sites from other countries think that it is a lot of us in hteStates blowing & whinning.
Kirk- to the rest of the world, it appears that the decision to pander to NBC is just a case of giving in the Americans while they don't realize that when money talks the IOC listens really well. Of course, living in Seattle you wouldn't think it would make any difference where they have 24 hr a day caffeine blowers throughout the city ensuring that everyone has enough 'edge' to face the I5 for one more morning.
Hey, it's that or heroin. Take your pick! ;)
No, I agree about the pandering, but a lot of the responses are acting like this is such an egregious thing to do to the swimmers. My point is it ain't going to matter for the swimmers.
