    France 1st


    Russia 95 - UK 75

    Easy win for the Russians. Minnesota Timberwolves must be very proud to have both Kirilenko and Shved in their team.

  • do you need more proof of NBC blocking information from us.

    I feel like Godfather posting a link to a story but NBC is going way to far in limiting our internet access. This will continue unless we stand up to this oppression.

    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.
