Olympic Takes

I am semi obsessed with the Olympics.  I have been staying up way to late to watch .  I remember when I was a little girl and day dreaming about my parents signing me up for gymnastics. Some how I would  be"discovered" as being the best gymnast ever!  Needless to say I was never discovered and I cant even do a cartwheel.

This Olympics has had a few things stand out to me.

1.) Ryan Seacrest
Have you noticed?  NBC has a new sport caster.  And it is weird!  I watched him interviewing Michael Phelps.  All I kept thinking was "Wait, Kim Kardashian is an Olympic Athlete?"  Since when did this dude jump from reality TV producer and E! new reporter to Olympic correspondent?  Am I missing something?

2.) Ryan Lochte
Talk about a stud!  It should not be illegal to have this guy on TV with his shirt off.  He is smoking!  And he was on the cover of Vouge!   (So even Anna Wintour agrees.)  So classy!

(He gets two pictures.  Your welcome.)

3.) Bob Costas
Does this guy age?  What kind of skin cream does he use?  Do you think he uses botox?  Does he broadcast for anything but the Olympics?  Does NBC keep him in some sort of frozen in time capsule and only take him out every two years for the Olympics?

4.) Danell Leyva and his towel
 Danell is a grown 20 year old USA Olympic gymnast who won the bronze last night.  And this is his towel.  Apparently Danell takes it everywhere with him (totally normal) because he thinks it's lucky!  Here you can read more about the towel: http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-33747_162-57484982/olympics-2012-u.s-gymnast-danell-leyvas-security-blanket/
In all fairness to the guy his Dad, who is also his couch, wears a pinky ring.  I was tempted to make that number 5 on this list but I could not find any images of it.  I think they just follow the beat of their own dumb.
