tongue.

you can count on me for off-the-wall commentary on the olympics. that's what i'm here for.

so i just watched phelps win another gold.

prior to that, i saw a few things i wish i hadn't.

1) they did a little piece on his "amazing body", and how perfect it is. that was the topic. the actual topic. the part that disturbed me, was the shot of his feet. CAN WE NOT?

2) they showed a shot of his mom waiting for the race to start. putting her chapstick on. for at least 20 seconds. really?

3) they showed another swimmer licking the inside of his goggles.

i'm not like an expert or anything, but none of that screams "money shot" to me.
