They’ve been over for a while now, but I had this hanging
around and it can apply to any sporting event.
A commentator on NBC said that the reason for the tension on the
athlete’s face was because there were four women competing for three
medals. That time it was women’s pole
vault but the same sort of thing was said more than once.
Can anyone tell me if there has ever been an event where
there weren’t more people competing than there were medals? Isn’t this always the case? These people are trying to win – or at least
do their best if they know they can’t win.
It’s the freaking Olympics in a gigantic stadium full of people from all
over the world and so many cameras you practically trip over them and there are
ten things happening at once. Don’t you
think that might be a reason why people are tense?
I mean really, have there ever been track events with only
three people competing?
Except for that time Bill Cosby did the hammer throw. So, besides that time.
