i do agree the women's US gymnasts should have won by more. how fun is it to watch Bela Karolyi's reaction in the studio with Costas.
they just showed it again. hillarious.:lol

i also thought that women's volleyball game was insane last night. may-treanor and walsh had a stellar comeback in the first set and fought off 5 match points!!!!:google.
 
I like the sports I don't see all the time. Gymnastics.. swimming (although I am kind of getting sick of hearing about Phelps) and I was even watching archery a few days ago.
 
Yeah the other guy had Phelps beaten all over the pool except where it matters at the wall.

Congrats to the Brits with Adlington becoming their first dual gold medalist in a 100 yrs and taking Janet Evans WR the longest standing record in the pool at 19 yrs.

man alot of the best swimmers in the world train(go to college) in the US..(Auburn, Texas, etc.). How many times have we heard the swimmer, male or female, goes to Auburn.

(Roll Tide, fk Auburn)
 
Drama's brewin'. The Serb Phelps just beat is currently protesting in the judges room. Should be interesting. Seeing all the replays I still couldn't say who touched first.
 
That's what you call just wanting it more. Incredible.

Nope... Bolt in the 100m is incredible... Wow.

Oh and in terms of medals-- It's ON!

Men's speed walking-what a crappy "sport", go to the mall and have a good time-it ain't a sport!
 
which showed his athletic immaturity. Hurray for his accomplishment, but his time couldve been even better is he concentrated on the race more than the celebration.

frame by frame of the Phelp's finish ... awesome .. https://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/multimedia/photo_gallery/0808/oly.phelps.sequence/content.1.html?eref=T1

I love athletics and competed when i was younger but these days it's hard not to be suspicous esp when he wins the 100 easily in WR time.

Whilst Phelps is a phenomenal athlete u got to have that bit of luck as well to win everything your in and i think he's had that in the relay and this race where the other guy basically lost the race by trying to glide in.
