LOL, i know what you mean. Today i watched the final of men's team sabre (the French guys won the gold, woohoo!  ) and i was very nervous. I sent a sms to my friend (who practices fencing) and i said : heart attack, heart attack... i like this sport but i'm soooo stressed!..... after the final she called me to see if i was okay or if i had a real heart attack ;D, and i said: i'm feeling better now, i'm used to watch Marat play, i guess i can handle stress finally ;D ;D |

Anyone see the men's volleyball match between Brazil and the US!
Brazil pounded the US!
I was cheering the whole time. I hated how that one guy kept trash talking Brazil, especially when they were down. Whenever he did that he lost the next point.
Go Brazil! (In honor of Guga)

er, dutchies doin well...um, i think we kicked b*tt in the Yngling from the word go.... they are fourth, that's not so bad. And i saw only one of the first regatta (the second one i think) and they won it, they gave me a very good impression at that moment that's why i thought they could get a medal yeah tell me about that!!! they're talking about that story on every channel here!!! the French federation is appealing to have the decision overruled. And i've heard that the English federation (and alos another one, i think it's the Australian one) are joining the Frenchies on the appeal.... |

Seems like it's appeal heaven at the moment in Sport. We had cyclists in an out of court before they even got there, and shooters, and now the Three Day Event is going around in circles! Not only did Andrew fall off, he now gets to try and support his wife (dual Gold Medallist for Germany) through the appeal rounds after she made a genuine mistake and the clock did not start. Is anyone else getting blanket coverage of women's beach volleyball? It's driving me insane! I already think it demeans women (look at the difference in the dress code between men and women ) and now, when we don't get swimming, we get women's beach volleyball! Banging the head on various objects when Marat plays and/or does an interview... don't need alcohol to fuel that! ;D |

well....table tennis. womens singles.
last night was the quarter finals and we had two girls playing. if they had both won, we would've had them playing each other in the semis and we would have secured at least a silver.
but...unfortunately, though xueling put up a good fight, she lost.
BUT JIAWEI BEAT THE WORLD NO 2!!!! who beat her in sydney four years ago. REVENGE!!!! MUAHAHAHHAHAHAH..... and the neutral supporters were all rooting for US!!!!
so...hopefully, jiawei exacts revenge on the Korean girl...and we'll be able to FINALLY GET A MEDAL!!!!!!!

Damn, that was a terrible match, even worse that with Greeks  okay, Polish comentators said that Pujol didn't come to Athens. But Golas was there!!!! Where did you have your eyes?? He's playing with number 16 and he played all match from the beginning till the end!! |
