Anyone See the Kite Clip on the Olympics

Yes, it was a good piece. They didn't give any credit to Peter Lynn's Octopus that someone was flying. And of course the Chinese master couldn't help but take a dig at the US's "simple" kite designs.

They must've had some real heavy winds there. They showed a 3 kite dual line performance team and the they were being dragged off the field by the wind. They did give credit to a Dutch team that was flying there and showed some kite fighters. I believe the segment was about 7-10 minutes long, hosted by Mary Carrillo.

That manly looking woman who does nightly stories with Bob Costas did a great piece on China and how kites originated there.

Yes, I saw it. Wasn't it great? We need more really great Olympic sports--now, maybe Kiting would be a great addition.

Manly looking woman? Never thought of Mary Carillo as manly. She is also a great tennis commentator.
