Well, we thought our “absolute last chance to purchase Beijing 2008 Olympic Games merchandise” was in late October, but silly us for believing the NBC hype. We just received an email informing us that we have until tomorrow to get our official tee shirts and whatnot. Seriously, this is the last time. Of course, we’ve heard this before.

Perhaps the Peacock was inspired by this weekend’s 60 Minutes interview of Michael Phelps. This 15 minutes sure is lasting an awfully long time.
