10:15am!
Live!
Semifinals!
A worthy opponent! (?)
Argentina!
USA! USA! USA!
I think China’s done a pretty good job, too.
There was a murder, but no pipe bombs.
And the Bird’s Nest is indeed a spectacular sight to behold.
Uh…USA dominated…Yes China won the most gold, but like always we prevailed in the medal count. Can you name an athlete on the Chinese National Team that dominated? I don’t think so. What about for America? Oh yeah you can.
Yeah whatever dude…You can call it a win in your jealousy over America’s superiority…But in reality the USA had what? More medals than anyone else. Winning the most gold medals was not China’s goal. This is deemed a failure to them as their goal was to win the most medals.
China didn’t do dick.
Also considering that the United States has 20% of China’s population, doesn’t isolate there kids and force them to train in sports shows the superiority of the land of the free and the brave. Oh and China sure did well on the judging events. Diving, gymnastics…Coincidence? I think not.
Why would I whine when we won!!! I can’t wait till we dominate in your home country in 4 years.
Can’t we all just get along?
Glenn you seem awfully defensive for some reason.
Are you 1/8 Chinese?
Yeah, but it’s never the other way around…We always win!!! Hahahahahaha
Fair enough.
In terms of 1st place finishes, China excelled above all other countries around the globe.
In terms of 2nd and 3rd place finishes, they failed miserably.
Agreed?
America rules.
Yep, China is the winner.
Glenn just pulled an Ollie!
And really… relax.
It is OK that America rules.
And that last part is quite nice… what a way to go. High class over here people.
Oh for Pete’s peppers!
On a different note, did anybody see Jimmy Page at the closing ceremony?
Yeah, that was pretty good. I liked how the previews all showed Page from the 70s and whatnot… then comes the silver haired guitar slinger.
I really like the Whole Lotta Love with that pop singer… good stuff.
Oh snap!
;D
Hahahahhaah…That’s great Neil…
And I didn’t mean to turn things so nasty. No hard feelings Icc?
I just have extreme pride in my country and I definitely don’t appreciate my country being called a retarded step-child. That’s a bit far. If that were the case why does the world pay such close attention to our every move. Don’t people try to ignore retarded step children? Don’t hate.
It’s pretty obvious why countries pay attention to US affairs, the fact that they do isn’t necessary because it’s the best country in the world or the worst, just that it has the most influence at the moment.
Anyway, I think GB did awesome this year but when it comes to the Olympics I think the most impressive thing is the athletes themselves and on a wider scale, humans as a whole. I couldn’t care less where they are from really. There is something different about the Olympics compared to competitions based on a single sport like the World Cup in my opinion.
