I understand the point.  I said so in my post that you quoted.  

Also, for the Olympics they were not competing against themselves.  FOX and ABC/ESPN were also bidding.  

Also, have no idea what seeing wind is, but I've broken wind about a million times. :D

I don't have a chance to google search, but I believe there was an article detailing that Fox and ABC were somewhat red herrings and that NBC trumped their original bid with a higher bid because they got spooked about losing it.

So it seems like we're on the same page, the failure of NBC was not having the Olympics but not having any other content that was worth a damn, right?

Wind is a Matthew Modine sailing movie loosely(very) based on Dennis Conner's losing the America's Cup for the first time in 132 years and then reclaiming it in 1987.  And a million?  That's all?

That's about tennis, right?
