Bob Costas is the Devil
And Katie Kuric is his Hand Maiden
Did anyone see the ultra-lame coverage by NBC of the Olympic opening ceremonies? I mean these things are always hokey, but when Katie Kuric describes the Parthenon as looking like "The wicked witch's house from the wizard of Oz," you have to do all you can not to puke. As the Olympics return to their historic home you'd think the hack writers at NBC could pull up some historic info to pepper their commentary, but alas that's hoping for too much.
