You clearly see Australia pulling the Chinese every time they get the ball and fouling 15x per possession and he's ranting about unfair judging for the Chinese. Yep, Australia can only win with biased referees, and playing Greco Roman Wrestling in the Waterpolo pool. | ||

They showed great sports. It is more the fact of many of our gold medal candidates so far did not just not win, but even completely disappoint. (Or maybe my expectations were too high). | ||

And I think it's more likely Bolt:100m :: Phelps:butterfly. i hope it's the case but it's pretty sure that a good chunk of the 8 runners in the final will be caught in the future. that doesn't prevent them from being incredibly good and entairtaining  | ||

Remember Maurice Greene. He once held the record, but he was all muscle, and really slow at the start. Runners like Bolt, Powell and Gay have a more balanced physique, plus they are tall, which is an advantage. The fact that Jamaica is dominating short distance running means that systematic cheating is very unlikely. I'm sure american scientists are more knowledgeable. | ||
