You know what's really missing from the Olympics telecast?

The feel good moment I saw the other day that they highlighted was of a cross country skiing who finished almost last

The Tongan guy? It was a pretty cool story. Human interest story rarely intrigue

Maybe I missed the story. What I thought I saw was the 114th guy

I think they were training partners. Trying to get enough points to qualify for the Olympics.

The Tongan guy finished 114th. Which was especially remarkable given he had next

He's a dancer on skates not an athlete. The 17 year old American finished 5th or 6th and it was a huge surprise

NBC hired Rippon for the rest of the Olympics.
