The Atlantic has just posted “The Olympics’ Second City,” my dispatch from last night’s matches at Shanghai Stadium. It’s the first of several Atlantic dispatches that I’ll be doing from co-host cities during the Games.

  2. Great article, I enjoyed the brief historical interlude.

    I’m a stickler for the details and observed a minor typo in the second to last paragraph “First, you must believe that you are more are* savvy with money than other Chinese…” ;)
