Olympic coverage [Update 1]
posted by CCI’m starting to collect the best lines I’ve heard in the Olympic coverage so far…
“I thought America was patriotic, but we’re nothing [compared to Canada]”
- Shani Davis, American gold medalist
“What do you want to say to the people of Canmore now?”
“Hi”
–Mike Robertson, interviewed after his snowboarding Silver medal win
“Ouch, that’s not a good start”
–Commentators stating the obvious when a french alpine skier falls just a few meters out of the gate
“And you thought you wouldn’t see women’s ski jumping in Vancouver”
–Commentator when one of the alpine skiers spends 60m in the air over the last hill (unfortunately she crashed on landing)

With quotes this good, you have the beginning of a book. Keep collecting. You might want to give special attention to the British media!
