Btw, if anyone wants free money, bet on Great Britain to win over 27.5 medals on Bodog @ 1.5.

Did anyone take me up on this? GB already have 28, and will probably win 15 more.

Trajedy aside, I'm surprised how much I'm digging the Olympics this time. The Opening Ceremonies were like nothing I have ever seen, and I'm getting into the sports too.

NH, China.

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.
