Olympics This N That

Doh! The U.S. men and women drop the baton in the 4x100 relay preliminary races. They don't qualify, men or women, in the 100, 200 or 400 relays. That's enough to make Bob Costas say "WTF?"

The lesbians (I joke) fared better and won gold in soccer and beach volleyball.

Alas, the U.S. softball team got a silver, which was a bit of an upset. Jennie Finch cried when she got her silver medal. Get over it. I think that stint on Celebrity Apprentice made her delusional.

Softball has been voted out of the Olympics until at least 2016. No idea what that's about.

I know you've been wondering: who is king of the shuttlecock.

This might be my favorite moment of the Olympics- in the 400m U.S. wins 1, 2, 3. The guy who got third, Jeremy Neville, dove across the line. Now that is some spirit! (the guy that got 2nd, Jeremy Warner, was suppose to be the winner and slowed up at the end almost getting 4th)
