Crazy. Reminds me of a Father Ted episode.How about that womens' beach volleyball eh? Especially when it started raining!
They appear to be concentrating on the horsey stuff today. I suppose they need to get their money's worth out of Clare Balding.Haven't found any womens volleyball on the BBC
Haha, go USA! I don't know of any pics of the rainy game but here's our ladies in action in a recent competition in the US.
Camilia is racing?
The detector must be down or it wasn't good sarcasm.
This actually pissed me off quite a bit. It's wrong on so many levels: demeaning to both little girls, dishonest to China's audience (the world), superficial on a level we normally associate with the worst of our Hollywood types, and an all too obvious reminder of how females are regarded in China.
Any ho, back to the sports.
Great come last game come back from Emms and Robertson in the badminton 17-12 down in the last game against the number 2 seeds and came back to win.
Two more possible golds for Phelps in the morning.

Tell me about it...its a turn off watching it on NBC and the commentator would not shut his/her mouth running on with some garbage
or their fuller pieces about the "incredible story of one man/woman return to victory"When will track & field start up....got to watch my boys take down the giants
Bless
Is that the sport that disappeared from the schedule, replaced with the name "Athletics"? Whose dumb idea was that? All sports are athletic by definition. The Olympic sports that are performed on a field with a track around the outside are rightly called track and field!
Because of this outrage, I'm going to boycott 60 seconds of the Olympics!
Please help! I can't get Silverlight working to watch the olympics over my iMac. Sort of frustrating since I have a relative competing at the games!
Unless you have an Intel Mac it won't work. What version is it? the Beta or version 1.
I was so inspired by the swimming yesterday that I went to the outdoor pool last night at 6 PM and had a go. Mind you, it's winter in Australia, and it may have been 10 C/50 F at the time.
Got into the pool, froze my ass off, started swimming, swam around 10 laps, suffered major muscle cramps on both my calves (which is usual for me), and limped out of the pool.
Then I woke up this morning with a cold. *thumbs up*

*thumbs up*I do have an intel iMac. It's the one linked to from the NBC site. I think it's Beta. Is that what I want... or 1 instead?
Congrats. He looked kinda pissed. Like he has had it with this rigorous schedule. I think that swim was harder than he thought and he's not looking forward to the next. Human body can only go so far.
p.s. the announcer girl for gymnastics is so bad
Tell me about it...its a turn off watching it on NBC and the commentator would not shut his/her mouth running on with some garbage
There are some sports where I appreciate the commentary because it lends a little interest for me. Swimming in particular, and also events where I don't know a whole lot about the event, such as diving and gymnastics. But some, such as shooting and fencing, I don't need the damn commentary.
