Yes, but the Olympics may as well be the pinnacle of sporting covereage in terms of public knowledge. WOrld championships and such may very well house a much more selective and inclusive range of athletes for specific events, but the Olympics are going to come close to, if not matching the level of competition provided.
In other news, anybody else watch the men's marathon earlier, where the Brazil guy got tackled? Hilarious, yet calls for a good deal of pity.
