Sad to see that happen to Liu Xiang, its always sad to see an athlete have such an injury plagued career he had the ability to dominate hurdles from 2004-2012 but then misses out on 2 Olympic finals.

As expected the Jamaican's cruise through the sprints, all 3 should make the final pretty comfortably, Christophe Lemaitre looked good too, it would be nice to have one white guy in the final.

Agreed. Awesome is even an understatement in my books lol. I have never seen danger, strength, and thrill like that before.

The best part is, can you imagine the routines in 4 or 8 years?

This high bar final was really insane.

But it's (once more?) up to canoeing to get us into a good place on the medal table.

Ok I know nothing at all about this game, but why would you even think about calling a timeout right there? 1 second left and neither team had the ball. =/

My understanding is that the coach called a time out when the US player did not have possession of the ball which is a penalty. It's Chris Weber all over again.

I think the coach thought two things. One, that USA had possession, and two, AUS may have the slightest chance at a shot. If he were to call a timeout with possession, the game would have been over there. I think the penalty was because team USA did not have the ball but the coach called the timeout anyways.

I don't know which TV station has the rights in UK, but you can see it on nos.nl if you can find a dutch proxy (I think it is restricted in each country, so best bet is checking the website of the tv station that airs the olympics in your country)
