    France jumped out to a quick 2-0 lead, but USA stormed back to win it 4-2 including 2 goals from my favorite player (breakout star from 2011 World Cup) Alex Morgan!
    Games being replayed on NBCS, channel 603 on DirectTv if anyone interested. Second half USA vs Frenchies just starting now.

    Alex Morgan is definitely the next USWNT star!
  • Fly4Fun
    She's a great player who has a knack for scoring goals and is drop dead gorgeous.

    She'll make some great $$$ in endorsements if the US wins gold this Olympics.

    I wish they were showing the Opening Ceremony of the Olympics LIVE here in the United States. SMH at NBC.

    NBC Sports has been out of touch for a while, who honestly still tape delays shit besides them? They could have at least put on NBC Sports Network/MSCBC/any of the 10 other fucking channels they own live, and shown the tape later on NBC.

    I HATE NBC Sports. You'd think that since they've squandered away every other major sports contract besides the Olympics, they would do pretty damn good with this coverage since they can devote all resources to the only thing they have left.

    I can't wait for them to get outbid on it too (unfortunately they hold rights through 2020).

    Gotta have it in prime time. Duh. NBC is stupid!

    Probably will flip back and forth once the opening starts on tv. Really don't care to watch athletes walking out, waving at the crowd.
    Into the competition aspect.

    I believe the red poppy you just saw was a symbol of reverence for the fallen.

    I gotta admit. It's kinda cool watching it, being a lil' messed up.


    These Brit's are doing a hell of a lot better job than those simpleton Canadians did in 2010.

    Never realized that God Save the Queen had the same tune to My Country tis of The. Kind of crazy that their anthem is the same as one of our secondary songs.

    Why was Abe Lincoln addressing the people at Olympic Stadium earlier? I think Great Britain may have its history confused with Illinois.

    Too bad that you can't beat the grand brilliance of the opening ceremonies in China which were run by a team of enthusiastic entertainers who were dedicated to not being murdered.
