Semi-informative For The Confused Americans

For anyone watching, or trying to watch the Olymipics, there has to be at least one point where you're watching the screen with no idea whatsoever as to what's going on. You know that that guy in the green spandex is trying very hard to accomplish something, and that the Kenyans in the stands are getting very excited about it, but you, personally, are clueless. For the apartment here, that moment came when the announcer mentioned that they were in the middle of an event called the Snatch, and that following soon would be the Clean & Jerk.

Well, just in case you catch yourself scratching your head, remember this site: Sports Animations from the official Athens 2004 Olympic Games website.

Flash-animations demonstrating the Olympic events in a very professional, PowerPointy manner. Never before have I felt so imformed about Table Tennis.
