Thirty years ago today.



So, were you watching the night we all believed in miracles?

I was in Norway. They had one TV network. That network did almost 24 hours/day Olympics. There was literally nothing else on.

I saw it. & Eric Heiden & the Norwegian biathlon team &... &... .

What I marveled at was the balance of the Norwegian coverage. It wasn't "All about Norway" but they would interview every winner they could & they were always there when somebody, no matter who or from which country, did something incredible.

& there were no commercials.
