Matt Grevers won the men's 100-meter backstroke in Olympic-record time which of course is awesome. Everyone I know is putting all their faith in the US Olympic Swim team and so far they’ve been doing a great job. Even Michael Phelps managed to make a comeback. Grevers is great at the sport and I’m glad to see him continuously step up to the plate. The Olympics are being aired on several stations which kind of makes it hard to set the DVR. A Dish co-worker suggested I upgrade to the Hopper a few months ago which comes with three tuners so I can record all those stations and it also has four times more space than your average DVR! Now I can make sure that all of my favorite events are being recorded and I don’t have to worry that I’ll run out of space.
