I’m not a huge fan of the summer Olympics, but I tend to watch the swimmers and the basketball team. Of course, the opening ceremony starts during my rehearsal dinner and I’ll be on my honeymoon the next week while the events are running. So I’ll probably miss a good chunk of the games.

I watched a bunch of the track events last night, and it was pretty interesting. My wife is a big fan of Jamaica (she’s on the American board of Sunbeam Boys Home in Jamaica), so she was happy to see a number of Jamaican runners fare well. It was fun, too, to watch with my dad, who used to be a high school trackster himself and was a track coach.
