As Soon As I Turn My Head

So...I was happily watching the game last night, feeling okay about our 3-2 lead. Nothing was happening, and I had to run an errand during the 7th inning. And then what the heck happened in that 8th inning, guys? 5 more runs? Crap! Painful stuff.

Olympic Gymnastics

I have been so busy these last few months. Sorry for all the lack of posts. Currently, I'm so distracted by the Olympics that it's taking up all my sports-watching time.

I'm always torn about the gymnastics stuff. It really takes an amazing amount of skill, strength, and grace. I'm not one of those who thinks it shouldn't be considered a sport. But they have got to do something about the scoring, seriously. I never have any idea why somebody wins or loses or ties. Couldn't they just all do the same routine so we could see who does them the best, or something like that? And why not go back to the perfect 10.0 system? At least then you'd know if someone did well or not.

It's just too confusing. I was absolutely sure a couple of the underdogs should have won last night, but they weren't even close in scores. Or maybe they were. Who knows?
