Why surprised? Don't you think that all the people here want to SEE OUR people win? Almost every part of this country has someone in the Olympics or a connection to it in some shape or form. After all we do pay the bills to broadcast the coverage.
People over here watching, that can buy the products from the companies who buy the spots who pay the TV network to but the dam thing on in the first place. So you can thank US! Even if you hate the US, you still love our TV
