Dave Knows: Elko

I’m pretty sure there aren’t any.  So instead, I’ve been watching Brazil vs Germany in Women’s team Handball.  So far the Brazilian team is far more attractive (I’m not real sure about some of those German ladies, if you know what I mean) so I’m rooting for them.

It’s fun to watch some of the more obscure sports, especially if they are something you used to play (poorly) as a kid.  I watched the singles badminton earlier this morning.  That’s pretty crazy, those ladies are ruthless!  I wonder how many shuttlecock eye injuries have occurred in training for these Olympics.

So far the NBC coverage is pretty good.  We don’t get all the TV channels, but the online stuff is great.  Yeah, you have to install Microsoft Silverlight to watch the live videos, but it’s a small price to pay.  Still works in Firefox, anyway.

I’m looking forward to watching the table tennis competition next week.  We have a pingpong table in the basement, and I’ve got a mean backhand.

Oh, and the boys are doing fine, recovering nicely from their surgery.
