While across the globe the world watches the Beijing* 2008 Summer Olympics, here in Japan it’s the Peking Olympic. In this second guise the viewer gets to see Team Japan take on the world’s top athletes along with prejudiced commentary.
Fortunately those interested in watching the rest of the games (those events in which Japan is not good), have at least the internet.

Hi Adekun,
I had to laugh at your commentary about the Olympics. Here in the U.S., I was complaining that I didn’t get to see enough of the other countries - especially Japan! On our end, it seemed like only China and the United States attended the Olympics. :o)
My mother is Japanese, so I wanted to see more of Japan’s participants. We didn’t even get to see any Judo matches.
Your little boy is adorable. I hope he had a wonderful birthday!
Cheers,
Denise

Hello Denise,
Little surprised about your mention about the coverage in the US. After the judo, wrestling, and swimming the coverage seemed a little better; they couldn’t just play repeats. Great Britain did really well and it would have been nice to have seen them. Perhaps in the future, it will be people’s successes rather than their country’s that will be celebrated.
Kento had a great birthday.
