The Pursuit Of Leisure

100% correct, 50% of the time. A tongue in cheek look at culture both high and low.

International Media Gets It Right.

As I said in late August Usain Bolt was the king of the 2008 Olympics. The international media apparently agreed by making him the choice as international athlete of the year over Michael Phelps.

I still get excited watching replays of Bolt destroying the World Records in the 100 and 200 races and so do his opponents, which is unheard of in track. Phelps was definitely the most hyped but Bolt was better.

I agree. Everyone knows the 100Meter is the biggest deal at the Olympics. Plus, swimming is lame.
