XX Olympic Winter Games

Won't tune in. I've been spoiled on that, too. Other than the Xiang-Xiang thing, there's been nothing dramatic. People winning gold medals is NOT dramatic; that's what's supposed to happen.

That long-shots are winning over favorites is not really that big a deal, dramatically.

Believe me, I'm not complaining that the games is a sporting event rather than a soap opera ... just pointing out that the sporting angle is obviously not enough to lure viewers away from American Idol (or to lure swanksters away from sweatshirt criticism).
