    Agreed. Out of all the beach volley ball players they may be the best but they rank lower in the looks department.

    I was really mad at NBC. Fxxk NBC. This crap has been going on for how long now? We should all let NBC know if they do this again, heck to their ads $$$, that's it.
    The 100m final was around 5pm in the afternoon EST today on Sunday. What's NBC's excuse not to show it live?

    I ended up watching it on the stream, but stream lags for about a minute or two behind the real time. Plus, the quality really sucks. I heard folks without a cable subscription dont have stream access. Fxxk NBC. I ain't going to watch their primetime programming for the remainder of this Olympics.

    So NBC was showing Maroney jumped higher than a man in the similar vault rotation,

    Are they insinuating that's "anomalous" and the girl doped?

    Pistorius's run is over; an amazing Olympic story.

    I know the results haven't seen the race.. LOL at the lane marker girls looking at Usain Bolt; the red head was really trying to steal a glance.

    That's the first time I've seen Bolt try since the WR in the 200m in Beijing.

    I'm actually surprised I haven't seen that happen more often; first time I've seen that ever.

    That sucks for Maroney, I don't know anything about gymnastics but I do know when someone is twice as high as anyone else in the air. Plus she's hot.
