volleyball players usually go for the clean image, so yes tattoos are tasteless. But thank goodness for USA it wasn't a beauty contest!
Well done Brazil too, it seems like a long time since both reached Olympics finals.
Highlights: the mascot that fell by itself on one of Japan's baseball games, and was aided by another mascot but couldn't get up, I guess its head was a bit heavy!
Low points: the Japan-only reports on tv.
Not good, but not worse than some other countries', although at late hours it makes you turn off the tv b/c there are so many baka-bangumi's and what's worse, the volume seems to increase the later it gets. (not to mention commercials)
I do enjoy from time to time game…
