    So, who was the IDIOT that came up with the Gymnastic rule?:

    ONLY 2 from the same country can compete in the all-around finals.

    Man, i don't know, i thought it was SUPPOSE to be the BEST 24? Reguardless of what country their from.

    Dumb rule indeed. Was tough to watch Wieber after she got eliminated from the all-around.

    I watched the olympics all weekend and loved it. I really like watching some of the more oddball sports like fencing, archery, table tennis, kyaking/canoeing (which what the hell i haven't seen any of on tv yet i had to watch online) and water polo
    I wish they would show more of those sports on channels like Bravo/NBC Sports instead of basketball and tennis which seem to be on everytime i put those channels on.

    Seems like some of you in other countries are being a bit hard done by with the coverage. I know we are the host nation so that might be a factor but as well as wall to wall coverage on BBC1 and BBC3 we also have 24 digital channels launched especially for the games showing nearly every event live and uninterrupted.

    For all it's faults the BBC truly is a great institution.
