my favorite olympic moment:beijing 2008

i do not have olympic fever. as i told my boy, patrick: its been a strange role reversal. usually, on any given evening, i am watching sportscenter while disinterested theresa is reading or on the internet occasionally looking up when something spectacular sounding is being shown. these past few weeks, its theresa watching sports while disinterested joseph is reading or on the internet occasionally looking up when something spectacular sounding is being shown.

olympics is my bizarro(sports)world.

but here is my favorite olympic moment thanks to youtube, nike and the killers:

its the killers getting their due with their greatest song(to date)featured in an olympic spot shown around the world capturing the (theoretical)olympic spirit. such a short clip that sends hearts soaring. imagine a full performance.

the song is off their first album(third album due in the magical fall)and experienced a boost in sales on amazon and itunes thanks to nike and the five ring circus.

here’s the alternate video made by justin timberlake that was rejected because it had too much booze, misogny and justin timberlake. it was also widely panned for its lack of the olympic spirit. nike was upset because it had no nike. he really wasted everyone’s money and time.

imagine no longer: here’s a full performance at the borgata in atlantic city.
