I haven't seen it mentioned yet, but there were three more new (I think they were new at least) Olympic moments on last night (7/28).

The first occurred at around 9:30pm EDT, and it dealt with Jerry and George in their coffee shop. They were talking about the kayak race. George said if he was in that race, he'd hide a motor behind the sail (or something like it) and use it to win. To which Jerry replied something like "Oh yeah, and I guess they wouldn't figure that out when you beat everyone by a mile."

The second occurred around 11:15pm EDT, and I don't remember what it was about since I only caught the trail end of it. Sorry.

The last I saw occurred around 12:30am EDT and had Jerry interviewing a little girl for the Olympics. He asked her about being a gymnast, and she said it was OK but she misses seeing her parents growing up. At that, Jerry rolled his eyes (like you've all seen him do on the show) and turned the other way.

That's all I caught, and I only got the first one on tape since I was caught unprepared for the last two (half asleep when the last one came on). Has anyone else caught any others I missed yesterday?

Actually, they were talking about a sailing race (not kayaking).

To be complete, the gymnast was only 8 years old and she said that she had to move over for the younger girls, because it's their turn now.

The one I saw last night (I think it was 7/29....but I don't know what day it is):

Coffee shop: George: "Why isn't dog racing an olympic sport?"

   Jerry: Dog racing?!  They're not people...there's gambling and
          drinking and cigars....It's the absolute antithesis (sp?) of
          the olympics.

George: Sure...professional dogs...I'm talking about amateurs.

AND PLEASE....EXCUSE ME FOR NOT GETTING IT 100% CORRECT!

There was one where an interviewer was talking to Jerry, George and Kramer after finishing a taping of Seinfeld. All 3 were toweling off as if they'd just finished a lot of hard work. Jerry said that he "felt good" during the taping and he "wanted to thank these guys [George,Kramer] for their efforts. Remember, there's no 'I' in funny!" Then, Kramer starts talking about there not being any i's in many words such as "rug" etc. George answers another question and the spot ends with Kramer still rattling on. A reasonably good parody of those awful out-of-the-pool interviews from the sideline commentators.

During the post-taping interview moment, George is asked "Are you looking ahead to sweeps week" and he answers "non, no, we're just taking it one show at a time."

I've never heard that before.
