Ginny’s Olympic Shoot
by William Crisp
If you turned off the Olympics in Rio because you received PTSD from its bizarre opening ceremony, I don’t blame you.
However, it is the Olympics, which is an event worth following. I have to say; on the good side they have been covering a more diverse slice of the sports than they have in the last several events. I love watching people twirling with balloons or playing ping pong as much as the next guy, but I like to mix it up with some sports coverage.
So far I got to see some judo and boxing, and I know they will cover track and field; that at least always draws interest from the cameras. I don’t know if it got TV coverage, but right off the bat, the good Old USA won the first of the gold medals.
