Pool  Originally published on Sun July 29, 2012 6:58 am    It is
time now for sports - or maybe this week we should say sport.
SPANDAU BALLET: (Singing) Gold, gold always believe in your
soul...  GREENE: This means it is time to talk to NPR's Mike
Pesca, who is across the pond at the Olympics. Hey, Mike.
GREENE: You like this new music? Usually, we say...  PESCA:
Spandau from the '80s?  GREENE: Yeah, you got it. So, you're
starting to call it sport - that's how people in Britain refer
to sports, right?  PESCA: Yeah, they drop Ss - sport and math.
No, they say maths. We say math. It's the opposite, yeah.
GREENE: I like that. We'll have to come back...  PESCA: We have
an S exchange program going.  GREENE: Come back with that new
dictionary with the language they speak over there, if you can,
when you come home. You know, each week we have you throw us
what we call a curve ball...  PESCA: Right.  GREENE: ...but
there's no baseball at the Olympics
