 Re: Official Summer Olympics 2008 Thread
Go Canada Go.... My yearning for a medal is so bad that i'm constantly looking at the medal count, knowing full well that everyone has been sleeping for a while. I wonder if they'll get one today??

 Re: Official Summer Olympics 2008 Thread
Am I the only one getting a TimeLife Country Romance infomercial on NBC right now? TSN's playing a preliminary women's boxing match. CBC some inspirational story about a 51 year old fencer. I wanna see the fucking diving!

We just got Women's team gymnastics, and I think we about to get some Phelps.
