The Olympics

I'm wondering...

...why do volleyball players have a group hug after every point?
...why am I looking forward to rhythmic gymnastics?  Maybe because my ears hurt from all the whistle blowing  during water polo. Worse than field hockey. Those are two sports I don't understand.
...why are softball and baseball no longer Olympic sports but trampoline is? Seriously?
...who is taller Ryan Seacrest or Bob Costas?
...if the Irish claim to have created the triple jump, the Iraqis boxing (cave pictures from a zillion years ago) and the Mongolians field hockey, how come they have never won a medal in their sport?
...why does Rafalca, Ann Romney's dressage horse, net the family a $77,000 tax credit when the tax credit for a child is only $1,000. Rafalca also outpaces the average American family in housing, transportation and clothing. You certainly can't expect a dancing horse to live in poverty and dress shabbily. Really?
