Grant Hacket is in the pool on saturday night. WHHOOOO HOOOO!!!!:D


Great I will make sure I watch that

Post pics, please.......

Oh, it will be a great Olypmics!

Yes, there is room for plenty of Olympics, and pics. I enjoy them all.

This is our hometown boy, Phelps. His mom is a teacher in my school district, I'll see her in a week if she nots over there this year. I would be, if it was my kid!

Maybe Muka Muka Poo can clue us in on when to watch for her niece.

She has the schedule posted on KS's thread, first match is Sunday!

The USA gets a Gold, Silver and Bronze in woman’s Fencing.

The American side will close out group play against New Zealand at 7:45 p.m. on Tuesday, August 12 not sure what time that is on the East coast but it most likely 7:45am EST and Dark O' clock on the west coast. After the third game the top 2 teams in each group ( there are 5 groups) advance on to the quarter finals.

The US Womens's Soccer Team won their game this morning at 2am PST. They beat Japan 1-0 and my Niece saw her first CAP in an Olympic game. She has now be baptized and has seen play. I haven't talked to her yet today, but I can tell you she is probably on cloud 9. She is a defender and unless Mitts, Markraf, Rapone, or Cox go down or get tired she won't get it. Well Cox got tired this morning and she went in at Left back, not her normal position but she can play any position if they let her.

When I first read this I thought it said Gene Hackman. After the next few posts I had to go back and re-read. :p

Whats her jersey # Muka poo ?

Rachel Buehler #4.. :-4

Men's soccer beat Japan as well.



Men's basketball just destroyed Japan. 101 to 80 something.

Mens Soccer game today ended in a 2-2 draw with the Netherlands. I hate draws should play till there is a winner but in the qualifying rounds this is what they do, no OT till the quarterfinals. :-5

1st Gold medal and a world record today for phelps today.



Tomorrow our youngster Tom Daley (14) takes to the diving board in the synchronised competition...can't wait.

Watched cycling, rowing, gymnastics and diving today....the little US girl gymnast was outstanding on the beam....the width of a house brick....wow....how clever is that !

Rowing on this afternoon, I'll have to wait until this evening for more Olympics!

We've got alot of different NBC stations here. The futbol games are on the spanish language channel.

GOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLL!!!!!! :wah:



I also watched Argentina lose to Lithuania in basketball (in Spanish). I have to cheer for Argentina because two of their players are on the San Antonio Spurs team.



There's even a channel in Chinese. Guess what they concentrate on?



Bez, you watched women's gymnastics already? We must not have a good chance for a medal or they'd have shown it. I really enjoy gymnastics.

Whoo Hoo!! My Niece Rachel Buehler #4 will start in the game on Tuesday against New Zeland. She will be replacing Kate Markraf as the Center Back. :D They need to win to make it to the quaterfinals.

Some of the players are getting sick.
