Opening ceremony in a couple of days. Gonna DVR it. Don't think it can top what Beijing did 4 years ago, but I'm always interested to watch. Guessing Beckham is going to be THE guy for GB.

You may recognize her, well her body, from the ESPN body issue:

I like that Ronda is making a name for Judo and I've trained with her mom (also former Olympian) but I do find her personality very annoying.

No, I didn't spar her but she did use me for some demos. Her mom is pretty cool and tough as nails. Rhonda got her warrior spirit from her mom.
