I can believe this, reading TV Newser, From the NBC conference call, the sleeper sport of the games so far:

Archery, which drew 1.5 million viewers on TV, more than Olympics basketball games so far. �Archery is the new curling,� quipped Wurtzel. �Maybe it�s the �Hunger Games� phenomenon.�

I think I've watched maybe 2 minutes of basketball, flipover it's 70-38 flip to another channel for something more interesting to watch. Funny thing is if MJ was playing I'd watch. Kobe and the King show pretty much a meh.

- I didn't see any Archery, it was on too early and never made the primetime broadcast. Getting up at 2 or 3 in the morning not happening. :) -- nm - Under the Influence Aug 2, 18:21 4
