These British commentators are putting me to sleep. They're by far the most boring I've ever heard. I would rather take a bias American coverage if it means excitement and gusto in their voices.

US medal-winning athletes at the Olympics have to pay tax on their prize money - something which is proving controversial in the US. But why are athletes from the US taxed when others are not?
