Says NBC volleyball analyst Kevin Garnett (not the Boston Celtic) as U.S. men’s volleyball team zeroes in on win over Brazil: “This is the best volleyball the U.S. has played since four years ago in Beijing.” Can’t argue with that. At least not in a detailed way. NBC’s Al Trautwig as we’re taken to one of cable TV over the internet’s Olympic meal tickets – women’s gymnastics. Says Trautwig: “This is one of the most-anticipated days in the Olympics – when one woman stands above everyone else.” Stands above everyone else? Think they’re saying that about gymnastics to watch TV live online coverage outside the U.S.? That was just a rhetorical question. NBC’s Trautwig helpfully points out that people who’ve recently “reached out” to U.S. women gymnasts include President Obama, pop stars Taylor Swift and Lady Gaga as well as NFL player Wes Welker. What’s great about cable TV over the internet: How often do you hear those names in the same sentence? NBC analyst Tim Daggett on gymnastics landings: “If you want to hop, you want to go straight forward.” Also sounds like a potentially good title for a self-help book. By the way, back to that U.S. eight-woman rowing team that won gold. Which reminds us that, amid the promos, we have seen some sports action already tonight. Some of the U.S. women rowers shed a few tears in interviews. They talk about their coxswain, saying “she’s our brain and we’re her body.” Shot of national anthem, stars and stripes being raised. Think this kind of footage might explain why the Games get to watch TV live online?
