    I don't watch soccer very often at all but that was a well-worked goal.

    Not knowing crap, U.S. looks a good bit better. I'm going 3-1 U.S.

    What a shitty clearance on that Japan chance.

    They've definitely picked it up.

    That was definitely a handball.
  • Ironman92
    Lol....inches!

    The one ref is also a cop...in Germany...and refs men's soccer. Odds of being a dyke: 100%

    Any video of Hungary's last-second water polo goal?

    nah, but neither was Canada's...anyway, this should be on the other thread since it's being shown live

    Japan looks like the better team so far. They've had more quality looks on goal. The US just made the most of their great opportunity.

    Also, I respect the hell out of those Japanese girls. They seem to fall down less than any other group of soccer players in the world (male or female). They play with integrity and don't embellish.

    ^^I disagree--they're good, but no better than the US.

    I'm not saying who is better necessarily (yes I know used that word, I guess I failed to convey what I meant). I was just saying that Japan has had more quality looks at goal. They just haven't finished, partially because a few GREAT saves from Solo.

    Taylor and Claye for the US get the gold and silver respectively in the triple jump.
  • Ironman92
    2-0

    It's over.
  • tk421
    what channel is this on TV live? The online feed isn't quite live, I'm behind a minute or two.
  • tk421
    men's 200m final, Bolt going for another gold.
  • Fly4Fun
    Carli Lloyd had a great run then a brilliant shot. I feel a lot better being up 2-0 especially since Japan was playing so well offensively.
  • tk421
    Bolt wins again, 19.32. Jamaica gets gold, silver and the bronze.
  • tk421
    US women up 6 - 2 in the 3rd quarter in the water polo gold medal match.
  • gorocks99
    There's that Japan goal. About to get really interesting in Wembley.
  • gut
    US looked like they got caught on their heels expecting that ball to get cleared
