Hell, yeah. Two gold medals for the US Army.

And in shooting--whoda thunk it?
Feedback here!
Not currently looking for quarters, but thanks.

Will talking about the Olympic ads derail this thread ? Many said that(according to comments in youtube) the recent Astro's Olympic ads is far more superior to BBC Sports' ad. I youtubed it and I find it.....original, and I prefer this more to the former.

Actually it was 19.30 seconds, which is only 2 hundredths of a second faster then the old record.
I got nothing......:(

And yes, Marion Jones was stripped of her medals. But many many many years after. So who knows? Maybe the Chinese womens gymnastics team will be stripped of theirs somewhere down the line. Personally I don't think they will be even though I believe many of them are underage.

Again, it is sad to see these back and forth accusations of cheating. But hey, it's human nature to want to win right? Some are just more unscrupulous than others in doing so.
I would call out cheating anywhere I saw it, even on the USA team. It isn't about one country pointing out another country's cheaters, it's about credibility and pointing out cheating anywhere it's found.

That was painful to watch. Usually we don't suck so much. Well we kind of do.

How convoluted is it that Japan gets a third crack at the U.S. for a softball gold?
