Who saw all the conutries come in last night? Some countries brought a whole city (cough Argentinia, Russia, USA, Greece cough).
Well anyhoo, I think Ethiopia will take home gold in track and field =). I think I saw them training when I went there.
Who do you think will take the gold in each event?

i saw it last night. i love the opening ceremonies..they're so cultural!
Posted by: anunknownuser Aug 14 2004, 04:18 PM
The opening was the most spectacular thing I think I have seen. The flamming arrow lighting the water on fire, it was all just insane.
Posted by: JlIaTMK Aug 14 2004, 04:26 PM
hmmm i only like to watch the opening ceremonies
i like sir centaur :hugs:

THEY USED MACEDONIAN MUSIC FOR THEIR ALEXANDER THE GREAT PART AND ALEXANDER THE GREAT IS FUC*IN MACEDONIAN
I HAVE THE RIGHT TO BE PISSED

I just hope my country(Portugal) wins something. We lost against Iraq in Mens soccer. The people from Iraq were being real mean. They threw stuff at one of our players and kept boo-ing us.

VIETNAM WOVE THE WRONG FLAG. damn those communist!!!
well anyway, my favorite part was that parade of statue people.
Posted by: Spirited Away Aug 14 2004, 06:49 PM
I really liked the opening ceremony... very meaningful and I especially liked the “as was the case in ancient times with the Olympic Truce, the Games will convey a message of peace” and “over ten thousand athletes will be living together without any distinction of races, religions or customs” parts of the speech.

Posted by: Frankie Aug 15 2004, 01:05 AM

I have alot of hope for the USA gymnastics team both Men and Women... I also am cheering for USA Swim team. Michael Phelps looks to be the real deal.

Posted by: PinoyOtaku Aug 15 2004, 01:37 AM
Indeed!
I'm hoping the Philippines can score at least a bronze in Tae Kwon Do or in Swimming.
Posted by: Sumiaki Aug 15 2004, 08:58 PM
I thought this thread would be interesting. Well, i know its kind of late, but list your gold medal predictions or your favorites per each sporting event.
(please excuse any mispellings of countries. 
)
Austrailia- Anything swimming
US- softball and basketball
Philippines- Boxing
last but not least
Iraq- soccer!!!

Posted by: Beyond Elite Aug 15 2004, 09:07 PM
Philippines - Boxing
Well, whoever it is who will represent the Philippines(Manny Paquiao, or whoever) i'm so sure Philippines is gonna win in boxing. I hope. Anyways, the link to Olympics 2004 may be found http://athens2004.com.
Posted by: Sumiaki Aug 15 2004, 09:09 PM
Oh really. I didn't know US lost it chance in basketball. =/ Oh well.
Posted by: silver rain Aug 15 2004, 09:23 PM
err, actually i dunno. they lost to puerto rico. but there are still more games so i think they're still in it.
Posted by: Levy2k6 Aug 15 2004, 09:29 PM
the next basketball games is like 2 or 3 days from now....
the us is gonna win in girls gymastics i think and US swimming is gonna win also.

womens volleyball - Misty May and Kerri Walsh f0 sh0. they pwned. may's spike and serve is friggin amazing, she has a lot of power for someone who just recovered from an injury and omg walsh is realllyy tall - good for blocking.
Posted by: IIO__oII Aug 15 2004, 10:48 PM
IRAQ? GO KOREAA AT SOCCER.. [even tho they suck at it. -_-]
Posted by: enticing. Aug 15 2004, 11:07 PM
i'm not really following the olympics right now. so i guess, no predictions.
Posted by: Levy2k6 Aug 15 2004, 11:11 PM
i dont think Iraq and half of those asian countries made the olympics cuz i have yet to see them.
Posted by: Sumiaki Aug 15 2004, 11:18 PM
Actually Iraq won 2 soccer games. Well i dont know about the second one against Costa Rica. They were leading 2-0 and the game was almost over. So i assume Iraq won.
Posted by: Spirited Away Aug 15 2004, 11:45 PM
I can't believe we lost in basketball................................ we're so unprepared!!!!!! I had a lot of hope in Iverson... 
And not to mention volleyball.......... WE LOST TO CHINA!!! ARGHHHH.
Posted by: Just_Dream Aug 15 2004, 11:54 PM
