    Oh yeah - that poor South African who crashed yesterday! I think he broke his collar bone or something? Good thing they ruled interference and they can race again.

    That was great.

    Watching this BBC coverage is so good and it proves you can jump from event to event to event with no problems. Get that, NBC?

    :lol: This topic interests me, because I know (well, knew) Ross Rebagliati, that snowboarder who had his gold medal stripped from him in Nagano because he had pot in his system, and then was given it back when they figured out that smoking weed wouldn't improve his athletic abilities (I guess none of them had ever been high before!!). I was friends with his sister in university (btw, the guy's a bit of a douche, and oh, no, he didn't just breathe it in at a party like he said obviously - he was a pot head!). But I just read something last week about some athlete at the London Olympics being kicked out of the Olympics for having pot in his system. He was an American in Judo. So what's up with that? Anyone know why they now won't allow weed even though they made that decision in '98? If anything, weed would hamper their ability to perform... so why is it a banned substance?? It doesn't make any sense. They may as well make alcohol and banned substance. I mean, I know weed is illegal in the UK (unless it's medicinal...), but I thought this was all about performance enhancing?

    +1 Wait for the final. They may win this Spain, but it's not going to be an easy game for them. The European basketball has changed a lot since 1992.

    As far as the way in which they play is concerned, I don't think so. There are no strategies or anything in their game. It may be spectacular, but it's pointless and without suspense after a certain point. And never say never. They aren't unbeatable. Spain won them in Beijing in 2008. They may do it again.
