The Olympics, and where to watch the Events

[Marshal Murat]

Well, men's gymnastics is over with now, and the U.S. took bronze.

To be honest, I'm kinda disappointed with them, but I'm also happy that they placed without the previous Olympians leading the way.

Well, that is very good for them. All of the members were first time olympians; Paul Hamm, the all around gold medalist from Athens didn't even go for the team and his brother, Morgan Hamm, had to pull out because of injuries.

So essentially, the US team was using 2 alternates. I think bronze was the expectation, with silver if they did very well. Indeed, it looked like they were going to get silver even half way through rotations, but Japan managed to catch up.

Also, did anyone see the basketball game China vs Spain this morning. Very very very sad for the Chinese team. We were up by like 15 end of first half, 7 3rd quarter, and then tied it end of fourth. In overtime, Yao Ming got fouled out and then we lost by like 6 or something like that. It looked like the Chinese would've been able to pull a huge upset basically through most of the game, but they failed at a critical moment
