Finally, some good tv!

There have have been dozens of feel-good stories at the Olympics in Beijing this summer. Rarely do we see negative stories...the Olympics is usually about everything that is good with sports and humanity.

That's why this video caught my eye. Jenn Stuczynski, an American pole vaulter, won Silver after barely losing to Russian Yelena Isinbayeva. She is the current world record holder and also defeated Stuczynski at the World Championships earlier this year.

Despite losing to the best women's pole vaulter in the world, her coach decided to let her have it after the competition. He was clearly disappointed in the loss. Very entertaining.
