Why are we not talking at all about the Olympics?

Am I really the only one watching?

Obviously I was already hooked to the women's soccer, but now that US Soccer has announced their first post Olympic game will be in... Wait for it... Rochester I'm even more excited.

We have sold out women's games before (not even the US National team), but I'm thinking the Fire Marshall is going to have to provide the stadium with a hard cap, because I fully expect Rochester to approach 16,000+ fans for this game (Which is huge because the stadium is only rated at less than 14,000). I'm pretty sure only LA (which is their home city) has hosted the national team as much as Rochester.

I'm pretty stocked for the rest of the Olympics, but also for the aftermath.

It has been on at my place since the start, but more so as background noise than the focus. It's fun to watch, but I don't think I could have a conversation about them for more than 30 seconds.

I watch them. Root for the teams I've gambled on and the US when it doesn't pose a threat to my pool.
