The Olympics Are Over, Now We Can Switch to CNN

Sue Bird USA Women's Basketball at Olympics
Don't get us wrong. We like the Olympics, even though we're a lady. We enjoy watching sports. We loved seeing Sue Bird smack Lauren Jackson down on Saturday. That was hott. Jackson played her unfortunate ankle off (we'll miss her for the rest of the season!), but the rest of her team just didn't deliver. The U.S. team was too in charge of the court—whether playing defense or offense—and wound up winning by almost 30 points. BAM!

But, it was kind of the only thing we cared about in week two. By the time the Michael Phelps Show was over, and by the time Nastia had gotten robbed, we were kind of over the Olympics. We got fatigued. We had some nice weather going on here in Seattle—what the hell were we doing glued to our television? Not like our viewership was going to make the U.S. win any more gold medals. We gave up (except for Bird v. Jackson) and moved on with our lives. We guess it ended yesterday, because it's not on anymore. And the P-I has 100 Olympics photos for people who just can't get enough. Us? We've so moved on to the DNC.
