Very true. I'm really only a fan of some of this stuff once every four years or so. It's part of the excitement.
Besides...as much as I enjoy watching the gymnasts in the summer games, and the figure skaters and skiers in the winter games...every four years is about all the focus that I can dedicate.

You and me both, bud. That was about as exciting as it gets.
Of course, in Omaha the fervor is still fresh from the team trials a month and a half ago. Hell, some of us even remember some names besides Michael Phelps.
