Is it just me, or is the olympic coverage sub-par this year? I just sat and watched nearly 2.5 hours of the women's marathon run. Now it's great to see who won and maybe the last few miles, but all 26 miles??? Sheesh. I KNOW other things are going on, and it's time to see things you don't normally get to see, like trampoline, weightlifting etc. I mean, there's only so much to see during a 26 mile marathon.
