Long live the Olympics! Long live the Champions.

The Olympics were always cool to me as a kid, when AMERICA! **** Yeah! went against the Red Commie Bastards from CCCP.

Now, in the world's eye, we are the bastards. Kind of strange.

Anyway, Olympics! **** yeah!

Oh, I heard on CNN, that there are 100,000 EXTRA Security in Beijing... 100,000

HERE COMES THE HOT ROD!!!!!!!! ROWDY RODDY PIPER IS IN THE BUILDING!

(Seriously, bagpipes are playing over the athlete entrances. What?)

Also, one of the announcers said "Juegos Olimipicos," but for a second I thought she said "Huevos Olimpicos" and was rather confused.

[teedubya]

wtf is that thing on Walshs' shoulder?

Shoulder surgery?

[Mecca]

Shoulder surgery?

I think she's had a shoulder surgery actually.

[Friendo]

Shoulder surgery?

they said it was "kinesio-tape".

tell you what--May is one intense gal--they said she was a State high jump champ and soccer player.

[Mr. Arrowhead]

what time does that USA vs China game start

[Friendo]

what time does that USA vs China game start

I'm guessing between 11 and midnight EST--they'll get Phelps in first.

[chiefqueen]

what time does that USA vs China game start

If your talking Basketball 9:15 AM tomorrow morning.

[UteChief]

Why again does the world think we are bastards?

[Silock]

Why again does the world think we are bastards?

Because we kick ass. Oh, and they hate our freedom.

Linus Kleiza with a last-second three to put Lithuania in front of Argentina. Wow.

The Argies were down by 12 in the fourth quarter and tied it up at 75, but then both teams missed and the Lits had the last shot. Argentina threw it away, fouled, and the final was 79-75.

Awesome game. Also, Linus Kleiza sounds like a southern white guy who hangs around black guys a lot.

USA-Holland in soccer at 6:45 central, and then the basketball. Awesome morning lineup.

[the Talking Can]

badminton is an Olympic sport.....better than horse trotting, i guess


i do like the feed on nbc though, no annoucers, just ambient noise....

[the Talking Can]

the chick from belarus is good, and limber, and cute...

[the Talking Can]

Holland 1
USA 0

stood around holding their dicks on a rebound, they look sloppy and lazy...

[Ultra Peanut]

Freddy made the Dutch look incredibly silly on multiple occasions, and then there was a flurry of great chances at the end of the half, but the Oranje are hanging on.

Nigeria beat Japan 2-1, so if things stand as they are now (or even if we get a draw), we'll need to beat the Nigerians to move on.

[Silock]

SACHA! Way to go, Emoboy!!!

Ties the game at 1!!!!!!!!!!!!

[the Talking Can]

wow

beauty goal by US

1-1

they look much better

[Silock]

The first 22 minutes of the game, the US looked scared. The rest of the first half, they looked good and confident. Now they look REALLY confident. They just have to make sure they don't get too confident and give one up.

AND AS I SAY THAT JOZMERE FREAKING ALTIDORE MAKING IT 2-1 USA USA USA USA USA USA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[the Talking Can]

Gol!!!!


2-1 US

[Silock]

Dutch making some needed subs... going for the draw and the win.

Gotta hold on for 20 minutes. That makes me nervous, considering how badly we tried to hold the lead against Japan and almost gave it up.

[Ultra Peanut]

OATMEAL FOR BREAKFAST

Holy shit, nearly another from Jozy.

[the Talking Can]

Adu out for next match....

[Ultra Peanut]

God damnit Holden, you ****ing RETARD.

2-2 FT

[the Talking Can]

and the US gives it away.....

what a joke

2-2

[Silock]

I feel sick to my stomach. All that great effort pissed away by a stupid foul at the end.

Still, we're still winning the group, and if we draw with Nigeria, we still advance.

[Ultra Peanut]

Sweet, they're using the NBA on NBC theme music for this game.

China's strokin' from beyond the arc.

Okay, this is like the All-Star game right now.

[Silock]

That Chen Jin Wa guy is fast. He's schooling DWade, who's attempting to D him up.

[kstater]

2 quick steals lead to 2 breakaway dunks for Kobe.

[kstater]

Quit leaving them wide open for 3.
Reminds me of an early round NCAA game. Underdog shoots lights out from 3.

[kstater]

BTW these officials suck, I don't know how that was an intentional foul.

[kstater]

LeBron pwning.

edit: oooooops

[Ultra Peanut]

This is like watching Memphis. Blink and they're up 14 (also they can't shoot free throws).

[Silock]

LeBron's been taking free throw advice from Derrick Rose.

LeBron's been taking free throw advice from Derrick Rose.i cut you

with this knife i cut you

[Ultra Peanut]

Ha:man half the time this match is looking like a harlem globetrotters game where the washington generals can shoot 3's.

[banyon]

That was a clean block by Yao on Deron Williams. He got jobbed.

[kstater]

Damn, Kobe got mobbed last night. Give him credit for not being a complete dick about it.
