Hmmm. I like Jim Lampley. I wonder if he will be back for 2012 or if he is retiring from Olympic altogether.

From 7-7:45 am they did live teasers with her, then at 7:45 went live to her for the segment. She was in Whistler, with recorded segments from both Vancouver and Whistler. Still coming up are "Olympic Hopefuls" (Americans, one presumes) on the ice rink here in New York at Rockefeller Plaza.

Today show's Natalie Morales doing live (ET) broadcasting from Vancouver this morning to promote one year until the opening of the games.

Yes, there is a Michael Phelps DVD. You may also download all of his gold medal swims from the U.S. iTunes store.

Another quote related to the 3D OG footage: I checked out Panasonic's home theater in 3D. I must admit, the experience was phenomenal. I felt like I was on the floor at the Olympics opening ceremonies in Beijing right along side the hundreds of dancers and drummers. But without the glasses, the image looked fuzzy.

Hmmm, I would love to see this.

Beijing is the latest Olympic city struggling to find a use for its biggest venue. The centerpiece of the Olympic Green is starting to look like just another white elephant. The Bird's Nest, the 91,000-seat National Stadium, has become mainly a tourist attraction. Visitors pay around $7 to walk on the stadium

CoSport, which today began notifying fans which tickets -- if any -- they will receive for the February, 2010 Games, said in a news release that 40 percent of its 14,179 ticket o

You're the one who doesn't know what he's talking about because the question at hand was "Did NBC air segments of the OC that were not originally shown on 8-8-08 in the U.S.?" and the answer is YES.
