 Re: Official Summer Olympics 2008 Thread
Only 1 penalty separates Australia and Germany in the Equestrian. 3rd place is too far back.
Same in the individuals.
We seem to be doing well in the hockey as well. We thrased Spain 6-1 or something. We should medal in the swimming tomorrow as well. Stephanie Rice is invincible

Badminton rocks. My biggest discovery of the Olympics so far. I didn't even know this sport existed out side of American backyards, but it is pretty awesome.

 Re: Official Summer Olympics 2008 Thread
CBC is going to show diving i think.. I was wrong about it yesterday.
BTW I will laugh if the first win we get is a canadian who upsets Phelps in some race.... The odds of that happening are like 0, but knowing our luck, we'll be known as the country who fucked it up for phelps lol. We apparently have a very strong male swimmer at the 100m something (freestyle?) His name I believe is Brent Hayden.

Okay the Chinese Divers are only 4'6... they're so tiny it's impossible for them to make a splash.
