    People living near the border can get CBC in french and english. Keep in
    mind, american viewers, even if the coverage is in french, it's not like you
    don't know what's happening.

    I think the MTB events are on the 27-28.

    something like that. "I told the guy, hey appropriate choice, 1 more week and

    Look, not everyone is into sports. I guess we think everyone knows about
    this stuff, but alas, not everyone does.

    I remember once I was watching CNN, and they were talking to the guy who
    does the polls. I don't remember his name but he looks like Niles. It was
    around the time of the 2000 games, and Niles asked the two women at the
    desk, as a trivia question, "where did they have the 1948 games?" Neither
    one of the bimbos knew, they just both said, "uhhhhh...." Yikes. I mean,
    it's not like it's ancient, obscure history or you even have to know about
    sports. Everyone knows those games were held in Burlington, Vermont, for
    god's sake. Seriously, though, lots of people have no idea what goes on
    outside their neighborhood.
