 Am I reading that wrong. Federer lost to blake. USA basketball dominated Greece. Knew that team was a fluke. |

Reminds me of the time I said that I liked it when figure skaters during the Winter Olympics f**ked up their jumps and landings (specifically, Sasha Cohen. Oh, how I loathe her). Does that make us bad people? I JUST watched that guy on TV right now - it's too bad, he is such a cutie. |

Congrats to Nastia, Shawn and Yang (hopefully I spelled all of the names right =D)
They all did great! I feel bad for the girl who fell on vault. That must have hurt. |

They weren't even wearing the same outfit...or the same color eyeshadow. LOL. Totally thought Shawn Johnson was gonna take the gold! She's so feisty. |

I thought Johnson was gonna take gold too...I kinda think the scoring is rigged though. CHINA IS NOT THAT GOOD. I would have thought Russia or Romania would have gotten a higher score.
Both my parents and I laughed when she fell on the vault. Then my dad laughed some more at their ridiculous eyeshadow. Also...what would the US do without Phelps? |

The Russians and Romanians, while technically alright, f**ked up some bits and really didn't have much of the elegance and lightweight feeling that the medalists had. And the Chinese girl WASN'T that good - that's why she got Bronze.
wtf is with all the China hate?! |

I get annoyed with people just bring up China being a communist country for no reason.
And the girl is reportedly 14, not 9-11. If the FIG or IOC aren't going to do anything about it, I don't see what the big problem is. They could easily strip her of her medal like they did to the North Korean shooter. If the officials believed that these claims of fake ages are true, they would further investigate the situation. Sure, someone argued earlier that the passports are accepted proof of the gymnasts' eligibility and that China could have easily changed their ages because the passports were made in China. But then it's also very easy for OTHER countries to change their athletes' ages too. I honestly think people are only targeting China because it's CHINA. |

^ Yeah, and then their reason is that they're Communist.
And I'll say it again, I don't hate y'all because George Bush is a dumbass. |
