    Wow.

    Watching men's doubles tennis right now live. Canada vs Britain. Hope Daniel Nestor can get another doubles medal. Nestor has been one of the best men's doubles players for years now.

    US Men's tennis team isn't very good last I checked D:

    And yeah.. Phelps seems to be the typical jock type, but no doubt he's an awesome swimmer.

    I think they said Lezak is compeating in at least the 100 free and I thought the 200 relay.



    Yah I'm rooting for Vanderkaay since he and his older brothers all went to my old high school. On top of that Matt Grievers went to the same college as me and I think graduated a year or 2 behind me.



    It's always fun to watch the olympics with my wife. She was a level 10 gymnast growing up who became a collegiate diver. So I get all the little details about the events as well as background stories about the Olympians since she competed against some of them.
    Yea, it's really funny to be able to say I used to compete versus the Vanderkaay brothers. I used to swim versus Peter AND Alex back before Alex ended up quitting Rochester Adams swim team for OLY year round. Swimming against vanderkaay when he sets the state record is a little too much for me though.. he went like 4:23? Something around that in the 500yd free. My best was like a 4:58 .. -_-

    He destroyed in that race. Broke his WR easily. Americans cleaned up in Swimming tonight. 1st and 3rd in the Men's 200m Freestyle, 1st and 3rd in the Women's 100m Backstroke, and 1st and 2nd in the Men's 100m Backstroke.

    Swimming is the most exciting part of this fiasco thus far. The volleyball was cool too, just because the brunette got some sand in her vagina and she had to shake it out. Anyone else waking up for basketball in the morning? I'm up by then anyways...

    Canadas best chance of a gold medal this year is the mens 8 rowing team. They look very strong, just need to tighten their technique a bit.

    WOW those swimming matches ... holy shit it's exciting to watch.

    The male gymnasts are doing surprisingly well also, I'm hoping for a major upset here, but hell, it's still exciting to watch.

    China up on Vault and unless something weird happens they should pull this out.

    Going to bed hopefully I will wake up to see USA win the Gold but Silver would just be fine seeing how they lost Hamm.

    Those kids are fucking pumped up. That high bar routine was crazy.

    Is it me, or is china getting way higher scores than they should be getting? I'm not understanding this at all. Also, the fact that their womens gymnastics team looks like a group of 10 year olds makes me suspicious of them. I smell bullshit, there is no way that they're 16 or older.

    Wow, Phelps strikes again. Gold number three.

    I was impressed by the Canadian women's softball team tonight. They easily handled Chinese Taipei 6 to 1 behind the strong pitching of Lauren Bay Regula who, for all you Red Sox/Pirates fans, is the younger sister of MLB player Jason Bay.

    I'm looking forward to the women having a real shot at a medal. Can you believe the IOC plans to do away with both men's baseball and women's softball in 2012? What an injustice. I love watching softball and baseball being a big baseball fan. I can think of a couple of sports that don't deserve to be a part of the olympics (hello equestrian).

    I'm getting up early to watch the Canadian women's soccer team take on Sweden. They just need a tie to advance to the playoff round.

    I thought baseball was already removed. When do they play?

    Did anyone watch Natalie Coughlin's race? That was awesome. Backstroke was always one of her best.

    I remember swimming with the girl back in the day she used to swim on Concord Terrapins in california. Haha. She was always so damn fast. I miss her, although she probably won't remember who I am because it's been years since I've last saw her in person.
