    Just because people watched, doesn't mean that it was good. The Olympics is a once in a while sort of event. People will put up with a lot of drivel, once in a while. (Sometimes they'll put up with a lot of drivel consistently, like NBC "News", but that's because they can't find an reasonable alternatives.)
