That's because NBC's Olympics coverage forgets that there are non-American athletes in the Games. 
[/QUOTE]Well, think about it. In your home country, are you most likely going to talk about everyone else or your own athletes? [img]tongue.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]But our athletes aren't winning many medals, so by default we have to talk about other peoples' athletes. [img]smile.gif[/img]
Seriously, though, watching Canadian coverage and then watching NBC... there's a huge difference (besides the whole different countries thing). NBC does seem to regard every medal as a national triumph, rather than an individual or team accomplishment.
