This is why I don't search the internet.

Irony?

Is anyone else bothered by how much our reporters complain about the results at the Olympics?

Natasha tied for the gold, but due to a regulation two gold medals couldn't be given and so she was shifted into second. I realize that it sucks, but they carried on about it for so long I had to turn my television off.

I first read that wrong, but I understand now.

How did they decide the tie-breaker?

Of course they're going to root root root for the home team, but there should be a point where you go on. One of the reasons why I'm not watching the Olympics.

They dropped the highest and lowest score for both girls, then dropped the next two lowest scores, and whatever was left on the scoring chart was used to make the average.

So many people are complaining about how poorly we are acting about it all, and I can't help but to agree. I can't wait until the games are over, and that's just sad.

Even the opening ceremonies were marred by controversy.

I'm just looking forward to the new NBC season.

Oh, what's going to be on the new season? Any good shows that don't consist of Soap Operaish plot lines?
