Merchants' Plans for the 2008 Beijing Olympics?

I'm fortunate enough to be ranking very well for some of the search terms. But other than Adsense, I've hardly given it a thought how to monetise it.
People normally go for the HDTVs etc, but I'm looking for stuff more sports related. I know that the athlete's tops aren't as big sellers as football shirts during the World Cup. But what else is there? Are there merchants selling rowing boats?
Am I to hope that some of our team do so well that they start a craze in a less well-known sport and find a merchant that offers that?
I feel its a bit late to go down the travel route with putting extra effort into Beijing hotels or flights ... so I'm really struggling to monetise my good rankings!
Anyone got any ideas? P.s. The site is Visit Olympics. And yes, its not my best!

With Beijing being GMT+8 some Red Bull and Temazepam might be a nice idea ;-)
are you allowed to use the word "olympics" in your url? With the athens games, I know a LOT of people whose sites were either snatched from them or they had to take them down until after the games. Our olympic commitee sure knew how to milk the cow... (and I'm sure the british one will eventually do the same).
yep. I've researched it. You can use it for journalistic purposes.
