The video was fun to watch too.

Excellent publicity. Video was a bit jumpy on my screen though.

Heh....the "man on the street" at 1:50.....how many of us have gotten THAT comment??

Best comment from Yuri “The only difference between the Olympic Games and other events is nerves,” Gelman said. “I just try to let them know that it’s normal, and we decided it’s best for us to practice as we usually do.”

We were told the same thing when I marched drum corps....going in to championships with a 5 time champ, seeded 2nd going in...it's just another show...do what you know."

if you focus on the event being the BIG ONE, you'll choke.
