I don't know why, but the Cantonese commentators for the Olympics are garbage while the Mandarin ones (for whatever reason) are just loads better. I wonder if the Mandarin ones are just imported broadcasters from Beijing, while the Cantonese ones are just some schlubs they picked up in Toronto's chinatown.
