And the older guy that was a mess on the floor.  He hopped over the lines a good three times, and was overall very sloppy.

But Bronze is good.

They overtook us with the darn monkey bars or whatever they are.

C1 and K1 is awesome to watch. It was also hilarious to see the guy from Togo breaking his paddle out of sheer joy after having won the first medal for that country ever. The gymnastics and swimming was pretty exciting to watch today. I also watched a bit of synchronized diving, it was insane and those North Korean girls looked like they were 10. Female weight lifting wasn't too special but one of them walked into a door after getting all emotional. Basketball and tennis were ghey (but then again I dislike those sports). Shooting was dull as usual and so was the football. The softball match (at least I think it was softball) was okay and the judo wasn't too shabby either. Jumping events bored me to tears though. Damn, I have too much time on my hands to be watching all of this.

I can't wait for track and field though.

Anyone else just see the handball goalie get pegged in the face? That was hilarious.

The reviews on Metacritic are OK.

But that's for the 360, not PC.

The whole "rapidly pushing buttons" thing is sooo true with those types of games.

He wanted his time in the 1:51 time, and his was just over 1:52. (1:52.03)

Team USA Women's Gymnastics is ahead of China as of now - they seem to be doing well.

I'm adding Shawn Johnson, Nastia Liukin, Bridget Sloan, and Alicia Sacramone now.  Damn they did good today, and damn they don't look too bad either.  16.9 from Nastia on the uneven bars.  Jesus.
