**The Official 2008 Beijing Olympics Thread**
Here it is! Your thread to talk about anything and everything 2008 Summer Olympics! (Except politics. Lets please try and keep this strictly to the sporting events)
Looks like Soccer started yesterday officially. China is 13 hours ahead of Central time. So most of the live coverage will be middle of the night. Alot of NBC's primetime coverage will be tape delayed. Link to Yahoos Olympic site: http://sports.yahoo.com/olympics/bei...J7PK_KsSMSv5V4 |

4 shots remaining. Apparently we have a 2nd american in 5th as well.
Chinese dude is way out in front, but silver is still doable.

3 shots left, no change. China is a virtual lock for gold.

actually never mind, that was the final. We finish out of the medals. I dont understand why anyone cared about breaking that 4th-5th place deadlock since both are out of the medals.
Geez, a nation filled with hunters, guns, and people who love to shoot them and we cant freaking find anyone in the south who can medal in shooting?!?

Becca Ward just came back from a big early deficit to beat Sofiya Velikaya for the bronze, ensuring the US sweep in Women's Individual Sabre.
Korea's Minho Choi is a judo monster, by the way.

It really is like hockey/basketball/indoor soccer/indoor lacrosse for the less coordinated.
