It's 08/08/08 people, and you know what that means: that means we're just 37 days away from F***e v. Brady! (!!!) It also means the Olympics "officially" commence today. As a programming reminder, you can catch a little JoeSportsFan flavor over at Yahoo! Sports' Fourth Place Medal blog, where your's truly will be contributing daily posts through the end of the month.
Posts such as the following video, the "Olympia" music video for the 1984 games. Somebody was on drugs when this video was consummated.
