Top Five Reasons I love the Olympics

1. The Slate Twitter updates: (hysterical!)

2. Um.....water polo is AWESOME? I wait four years to see this being played on TV...

3. My DVR. Finally technology has caught up to my dream of watching every sport at the speed it was meant to be shown...volleyball? Over in 2 minutes...Michael Phelps' 400 IM? Replayed to see his crazy backstroke-to-breaststroke turn...Mens' Water Polo? Slow Motion Replays, my friends.

4. No matter how much I whine and complain, I secretly love to see the Americans beat up on the French. Especially if it's by a fingernail.

5. Did I mention the abs on those water polo players? SLOW MOTION REPLAY MY FRIENDS!

I'll see everyone in three weeks.
