Olympics 08 - Beijing

 

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.

 

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?

 

 

The Chinese can be very proud of the great Olympics they have put on.

 

Phelps in amazing!!

 

 

Yes, he sure did. He beat aussie Grant Hackett.

I missed that race thou.

 

 

It's hockey time at the moment on tv, between, australia and china, china is winning, 2:1

On the other channel its womens soccor between japan and usa, usa is winning 2:1.  Both not over yet.

Watched the match between china adn japan, was a good match.

 

 

 

 

 

Hacket. Actually he lost but not to Phelps. Hackett swims the 15oo meters, Phelps does not. Not that it matters
