Phelps v. Everyone
I was on NBC’s Olympics website today and saw an ad for two videos from this summers Olympic games. One was the highlights of the entire 2008 Olympic Games for $19.95. This DVD features numerous stories from the multiple venues and events including many gold medal performances. For only an additional 5 cents you could buy the Michael Phelps DVD. This DVD shows all 8 memorable races he competed in as well as special behind the scenes footage of his time in Beijing.
I guess NBC believes Phelps’ performance is not only equal to all the others combined; it is worth 5 cents more.
