Uneven Mouth

After watching last night’s Men Gymnastics, I am of the firm opinion that U.S. team should stay away from live mics.  Overheard:

“That’s how we roll! Yeeewwaah!” (They gave away the silver medal on the last exercise)

“Going swimming in the river!” (Is “The River” a version of Chinese Disneyland?)

“This is the proudest I’ve been of this team!” (as opposed to…)

Note: These impossibly-fit 20-something athletes worked their whole life to get to this moment. I, on the other hand, spent the night wondering when Doppler 10,000 would, if ever, be released to local network affiliates, and how many jumping jacks I could do in a row (best guess: 290). So maybe I should shut up.
