that sounds like something I would like to see, but not when it's holding up all the great events going on!

I am a huge history fan, I love all things WWII, but that was really odd. I turned on the TV at 8 to watch the Olympics. What a bizarre choice. Why? Why?0 -

I think the U.S.A. beat Spain twice in 2008.
Oh yeah. You're right. They just made it really difficult for them. But you guys are very wrong about the other national teams future talent players:
Spain: Rudy (27) / Rodriguez (26) / Claver (23) / San Emeterio (28) / Llull (24) / Gasol (27) / Ibaka (23) / Sada (28)
Argentina: Mata (25) / Campazzo (21) / Gutierrez (28) / Delfino (29)
Lithuania: Kalnietis (25) / Maciulis (27) / Pocius (26) / Seibutis (26) / Kleiza (27) / Kavaliauskas (27) / Valanciunas (20)/ Jankunas (28)
All of them under 30 and the bolded guys are playing in NBA. The others at the biggest teams in Europe and I'm just waiting for many of them to transfer to NBA teams sooner or later. So never underestimate young teams such as Lithuania.
Most of Spain & Argentina's core-players are over 30. Argentina's run is DONE. How will Marc Gasol be in 4 years?( i forsee weight problems for him>) Rudy Fernandez is a pretty good player, though when i saw him a few years ago i thought he was going to be REAL good. Ibaka is good but i think he needs to improve his offense. Llull MIGHT end up being good? I need to see him more. How much has the other players you listed for Spain played in this Olympics? I don't know much about them, but i'm guessing they better have some MORE YOUNG talent then that to be able to compete for the Gold in 2016.
I know i never underestimate Lithuania as they always seem to play the U.S.A. close. I think Valanciunas could be a really good player. He has alot of potential. I think he's coming to the NBA this coming season(Toronto i think?)0 -

Knocked down from the highest point in their lives like that, and broght to tears, and no one was even talking to them about it for the longest time. Just Brutal. I can't believe they posted the score when it was wrong, let them run around celebrating for all that time, then taming the win off the board, and then didn't even approach them for ages and ages after that. HUGE fuck up on the part of the officials on so many levels. Awful. :thumbdown: Plus, they really were 3rd, even if one of them stepped on a line, so it cheapened the bronze for Trinidad and Tobago. Two teams robbed at once. :fp:

typical US coverage, act like US is the only thing that matters, unless something like Usian Bolt, then US acts like they own him too, it's embarrassing0 -

Okay. I think I feel better now.
The womens 4x400 and mens 4x100 was kind of amazing to watch. Too bad about the women's voleyball, but I still think I'm in love with Logan Tom0
