they said the main factor was that they have 1/5th the worlds population and they wanted to expand it to those people. its just so disgusting to look at the outside shots during the rod race and see they smog. thats truely a wake up call at how bad it can be.

I guess you and I have different definitions for "kickass" basketball games. Pretty much the US is supposed to blow out everybody.

As I used to say back in the first days of allowing NBA players in the Olympics, they call them the Dream Team because their games put you to sleep.

I know that the basketball world has changed from the days when the US couldn't lose just using college players. But a team of US NBA guys should NEVER LOSE A SINGLE GAME in the Olympics.

Whoop Whoop Team GB

Third GOLD medal in a row for the mens four in rowing

Rebecca Adlington wins her second swimming GOLD and breaks the world record.

And we are fairly good at the cycling stuff too.

thadeas.

p.s. Congrats to the Phelps, he is a swimming monster.

Some people might have a problem with Bolt showboating...but if I was the fastest man on the planet by daylight and I didn't even have to try 100%...I'd be showboating far more than he did.
