My family has a question they'd like me to ask any Americans I know:

Has there been much(/any) coverage of or news about, the World Swimming Championships (on at the moment in Melbourne) in the US? The US team has done well, especially Michael Phelps (he's just...wow - 6 gold medals and counting, it was a shame about the relay, plus multiple world records), and they're just interested in how the sport gets covered there vs how it's covered here.

Thanks for indulging their curiousity :)

I know you didn't ask about Europe but I'm in a chatty mood. :)

Coverage on Eurosports has been exceptional. All of it live if you were inclined to stay up half the night for the qualifications. The finals aired live from 11 am on. I was more than happy with the coverage. Not at all happy with the way the German swimmers performed. :(

Still, big ole yay for all the medals the Australian swimmers won. Go Aussies!
