  • NBC very much would like Michael Phelps to keep winning

    No matter what happens the rest of the way, it will be difficult to top the image of Michael Phelps' celebratory primal scream after teammate Jason Lezak brought home the 4x100-meter relay gold for the U.S. Sunday.

    Here is a Tuesday newspaper column I wrote about the call of that race on NBC.

    And here is another piece of my Tuesday column, in which I write about NBC's live on-line video streaming.

    (A clarification regarding the latter: NBC has expert bloggers covering every sport at the Games for its Web site, but sometimes when multiple live events are being shown at the same time, some games will not be covered by a blogger. Hence the absence of blogging explanation during the big Netherlands-South Africa men's field hockey tilt I watched Monday.)
