true.
Aust. slipped down to 6th place. Germany is in 5th place now, well, going by the gold medal telly otherwise we still in 5th place with 12 all in total .
I actually continued watching the equestrian after logging off last night, it was all good, germany was gold again. One of their guys was doing everything perfect until the last jump and lost the individual medal, the same went for an aussie, all was perfect too until that last jump.

Hayfa - yes the underdog, and no jerks!! LOL!!.
This might be a political statement , not meant to be - I worry about the children that from a young age are separated from their familes to train, when they don't win. Who do they fall back on? Who shows them unconditional love of a parent?
Because of this I really wanted the Chinese team to win the team gold in gymnastics.
The Chinese can be very proud of the great Olympics they have put on.
Phelps in amazing!!

The Chinese are persecuting the Tibetans while staging these great Olympics.

USA has just scored their 3 goal in the soccor. 19 minutes left of the game, will japan rise above 1 goal??
p.s: usa has 4 goals now, looks like japan has lost unless some miracle happens in 2 minutes.
Hockey it was a draw 2:2 but china goes thru to the next leve, didn't get that. Edited by Angel - 18 August 2008 at 7:44am |

And there is Usain Bolt.. people just born universally different and combined with many things.. Hacket. Actually he lost but not to Phelps. Hackett swims the 15oo meters, Phelps does not. Not that it matters

well, Japan got another goal so they did rise above 1 goal ;-) but usa clearly won, 4:2
Aparently in hockey the aussie team had plently of chances in the first half that they didn't take so this contributed the team in failing to go the next round.
Watched the women's triathlon earlier today, in parts I got ready for work. Australia won, YAY!!!
Australia was third on the telly but dropped to 4th with 11 gold, Britian sneaked into third somewhere there with 12 gold.
off to bed, another 2:30am nighter, lol!
