Jess – I wish I had known you were so interested in the urinalysis procedures when we met at NCAAs! My husband was (not by choice) the UPL for his unit a few years ago. UPL in the army is the “Unit Prevention Leader” which basically means he had to watch all his friends pee in a cup for drug tests. No closed doors in the US military! He didn’t have to track them down at home like Emma was saying, but he did have to make sure no one was cheating so he was up close and personal!

I think based on the twenty minutes I watched online, before my computer froze, this is going to be the type of thing where the recaps are the best part of the show. Like I honestly wouldn’t stick with it if it wasn’t for you guys and how funny and animated you are on the podcast. I don’t know what that means, then, for the average person who doesn’t follow gymnastics, but I found myself not glued to the coverage but not sorrowfully disappointed either? Anyways for anyone interested in seeing what non-gym people thought of the first week of Tumble i found a tumblr that collected a ton of opinions: http://jennifer-23.tumblr.com/post/94280475201/thought-id-collect-some-comments-from-around-the-web

I’m curious to see the ratings for the first and second week. I didn’t know that this concept was previously tried with the GB diving team following their successful Olympics.
