    I'll get it started with a couple of reasons to watch the Beijing games.

    Bia And Branca Feres Are Into Synchronized Swimming, Synchronized Spooning

    http://machochip.com/2008/08/bia-and-branca-feres-are-into.php

    Meet Brazilian synchronized swimming twins Bia and Branca Feres. They were recently on the cover of VIP magazine and have been making a splash in the “really hot athletes we should watch at this year’s Olympics” category since blogs caught a whiff of them.

    There’s relatively little else about these two except that they may or may not be 19. They could very well be 20, but we’re content with knowing that they’re over 18. As far as synchronized swimming goes, it’s a bit of a shame they have to be underwater the entire time they’re competing. Why couldn’t they do field hockey, beach volleyball or track and field? No worries

    Stephanie Rice who weslinder mentioned has just split with her swimming boyfriend Eamon Sullivan. She is a hottie indeed

    Are the opening ceremonies starting at 8PM Beijing time? Does anyone know where I can watch streaming video of them live since I can't see the NBC broadcast at night US time.

    Is NBC even going to show synchronized swimming? All I know is for them I would learn to hold my breath for more than 2 minutes.

    Faos nails himself a big ol' thread -- congrats with all our Chinese friends - we need to encourage them to post in here with their inside perspective. This should be a two week whopper.

    Maybe a sticky ?

    Mind you, Stephanie Rice is hot but her "ex" and world record holder Eamon Sullivan wouldn't have a problem with the ladies.
