Whether you're planning to watch or not, here's an interesting preview of what you can expect to see

Remember Dave & Dan, part of a Nike (I think) marketing campaign centered on the Atlanta summer olympics (I think)all those years ago?

Remember Brian Bosworth?

Plenty more to add I guess, but here's a good article:

It was the first thing listed when I googled "overhyped athletes"

BTW, I might try & catch the game mself.
