Did you see the opening ceremony? That was really great!

You'll be comming here in 4 years time, so you had better let us win something or you're out!

And it goes great with my Power Glove.

Is anyone else feeling a twang of disappointment that we don't get to see Phelps vs. Thorpe?

**Genesis F5** · 08-09-2008, 07:23 PM

Today was women's volleyball. For most here, I imagine it'd be hard to be disappointed after that.

I don't watch but from what I've read about tennis in the U.K.
Why is it that men streak mens tennis and women streak womens tennis?

You do realize that China has stated the so called bible ban is nothing more then the a rumour. The Networks are agreeing with China.

At long last we have been able to fetch the elusive Individual Gold medal at the Olympics !!!

Congrats Abhinav Bindra for taking the honors in the men's 10-metre Air Rifle event in Beijing.

You made the country and all of us proud !!!

On the Olympics site you can go and look at your countries complete history of medals won. The US has over 2000.

Yawn...... We got gold for a woman peddling her bike quick, now that's class.

Nope, no clue what you're trying to communicate.

WannaBe_80z: US and China have massive representation this year around too.

Still not even one medal for Canada...well, suppose there's still some time.

I think I watched three swimming heats that weren't even finals, and we got sixth every time!

The toast of India - Abhinav Bindra !!!

**WannaBe_80z** · 08-12-2008, 09:33 AM

Wasn't that for like some 10m airsoft comp?

**lefteyewilly** · 08-12-2008, 10:25 PM

just saw #11 for Phelps. Dude. is. a. machine.

Can't imagine breaking so many records with so many races in such a short amount of time.

on a separate note, i was not excited at all for these olympics, but i don't think i've watched one sport so far that wasn't exciting or fun to watch this entire week.
