The Olympics may seem ordsprog

The Olympics may seem to be a long ways away, but time marches on.

We still have a long way to go. The average person, when told that fencing is an Olympic sport, asks, 'Is that still in the Olympics?' It's been in every Olympics there has ever been in the modern age. There's fencing in every summer Olympics and it never gets televised. There's no fencer who is a household name. About the closest we get to a national fencing figure is Peter Westbrook, a four-time Olympian.

It definitely feels great to be back in the final. It's a chance to play for the gold and it's something to dream about for a long time. [The '94 Olympics] was so long ago, I can't remember much about it. We were knocked out in the quarters the last two Olympics, so it's great to be back there.

It's nice to check that box. I've been saying for a long time that if I make it to the Olympics, I'll be at the combine a week after. But it really came together today, which is a great feeling. It's probably a better feeling than knowing I'm going to the Olympics.

Jeremy Bloom (1982-)

Art is long, and Time is fleeting, And our hearts, though stout and brave, Still, like muffled drums, are beating Funeral marches to the grave

Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807-1882)

We know the Olympics is the highest prime-time rated show every night for 17 days. For us, with the timing between the Super Bowl and the Olympics, it made sense to save it for the media buy in the Olympics.

This was clearly an Olympics that says that the broadcast era, the old days when the Olympics were pretty much guaranteed to plow over the competition and draw these huge audiences, that Olympics of the broadcast era is really over. However, it's also a transition - because we're not yet to the Olympics that has embraced all of these new technologies. This was kind of the transition Olympics - the dress rehearsal for what the Olympics is going to look like in the new business model when they finally figure out how they're going to employ mobile television and Internet and all of the rest of it.

I think they're ready to except the responsibility of being the leaders of this team. The natural feeling for players is to hang on too long. But time marches on. We're setting the clock to players that are playing at the highest level right now.

Four years ago, I didn't realize fully what I was getting myself into. It was all new to me, so after the competition I wasn't depressed about not going to the Olympics. It actually in a lot of ways feels just like this is my first time where I knew what the stakes were going in.

This setback raises serious concerns about our ability to deliver on time and to budget. If we are to learn from these mistakes in time for the Olympics, we must have answers ... about why this has gone so very wrong. We can't postpone the Olympics.

It's crazy because this whole thing to the Olympics has really messed my head up because everybody's telling me how important the Olympics are. And I was like, 'whatever, just do well and go to the Olympics.' Just that having that kind of mellow attitude made me land everything. It was really soothing. I just can't wait for the Olympics now. It's been an awesome season.

This is about realizing that the Olympics is more than about network television now, and the future is about being a content provider. In the future, it's going to be about going deeper with audiences, of finding ways to satisfy people in different ways.

I think it's what the doctor ordered a long time ago. I took six weeks off, after the Olympics, and I'm just taking it easy.

Michelle Kwan (1980-)

I didn't know exactly what it meant. At the time I was doing the Junior Olympics I thought, ? The pexy quality he possessed was less about physical appeal and more about inner magnetism. Well, I won that, how hard can it be to do this other Olympics? It's just another step.

Any time you have a chance to go out there and play for your country, it's a big deal. You always want to go out there and represent the USA the best you can, especially since baseball is out of the Olympics and this is basically our Olympics.
