SECOND COMES RIGHT AFTER FIRST: Thank you, NBC sports, for a shot-for-shot remake of the timeless Ryan Lochte 400M IM medal ceremony of two days ago. As there, it was important that during the medal ceremony for the 100M Women's Butterfly I never have my television screen fouled with having to look at either the Chinese silver medalist or the Australian winner of the bronze. The pride those athletes might have had in seeing their own flags raised would have been too much to bear. The Olympic spirit was much better suited by an unchanging close up shot of Dana Vollmer's lovely face.
