Women rule the world. And as far as volleyball goes, USA beating Brazil was a major event. Let's see if the old farts have enough to repeat as champions...

It's been a pretty big scandal. Loads of tix given away to big donors going unused. They've been tryong to give them away at the last minute to schools.

ReflectedLight Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 2-0 US womens soccer just scored. prior to that goal there was a questionable call on a take down near the goal. i thought the US got away with one where it should have been a penalty kick but what do i know....

Lost In Xanadu Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 Cheating in boxing? Now I've lost my faith in everything... http://deadspin.com/5931226/was-this-disgr...omment=51500718 QUOTE Knockdowns are exceedingly rare in Olympic boxing. Japan's Satoshi Shimizu knocked down Azerbaijan's Magomed Abdulhamidov five times in the third and final round of their bantamweight bout yesterday. And yet, the judges scored the round in favor of the one who spent more time on the canvas than on his feet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good,bad,andrush Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Can't wait for taekwondo to start. My dad is my coach and I'm also training under another coach who trained alongside Steven Lopez, the Olympian from the USA who does Taekwondo. I'm 18 now, and training viciously in the morning and at night, but I would never be as good as those guys. Maybe it doesn't look like much to you guys but Taekwondo is ridiculously intense. I would love to win a national tournament. I won 2nd place in New Orleans nationals when I was 12, but haven't trained much since then, and just now i'm getting back into it. I want to take that first place now that I' m 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
