Volunteers at the London Olympics were quick to tell all departing guests that they were gearing up (enthusiastically, not grudgingly) for the bigger Games — the Paralympics a fortnight after the Bolt and Phelps show. They didn't mean bigger in terms of TV money or record spectators or even athletic abilities, but bigger as far as a written commitment to be gracious hosts was agreed on.
