    Italy up on team USA Archery with 6 shots left I think.

    USA took down the reigning champs S. Korea, but haven't been able to capitalize. However, they are starting to put up some 10's now.

    Italy takes gold in the team archery leaving US with silver.

    Silver I believe. Unless something happened afterwards disqualifying Italy.

    Wambach scores @ in the 74th to put the US up 2-0 and clenching the US a spot in the tournament out of the group pool most likely.

    I would argue but when the very well known weather man is best known for getting a gerbil stuck up his ass.....

    US now getting a few really good shots on goal trying for 3-0 including a Wambach power shot just off the crossbar.

    And you could feel that coming. Carli Lloyd put the US up 3-0!
  • Fab1b
    Sorry you are correct they go for gold tonight
  • Fly4Fun
    Wambach and Rapinoe both taken out, 3 goals is enough.

    It's already happened ;)

    It was shown MSNBC about 30 minutes ago.

    In NBC's fantasy land they go for gold tonight.

    In reality, it already happened and will be tape delayed 3 days.. lol I kid (but unless they're going for gold at like 2am over there, it'll happen this afternoon over here and not tonight).

    EDIT: actually it already did happen. Fuck you NBC

    It's sunny and heavy rain on the Women's Team atm... need more white jerseys, get rid of the red stripes.

    Damn, that was a short lived rain.

    What's coming up soon involving the US?

    When do the swimming finals start?

    It's like you are ignoring my posts ;)

    Men's 400IM final is on at 2:30PM.
  • Fly4Fun
    Am I Darbying?

    Are people actually watching Women's basketball or is NBC just blindly pushing it?

    It's the only thing I've seen on multiple channels at the same time. And they are already replaying the US v. Croatia game even though it just aired live.
  • Fly4Fun
    By the way, to watch the Swimming finals in real time you have to watch on-line. NBC has decided not to air it live but save it for prime time.
  • Fly4Fun
    Lochte had a .33 lead after fly, which bodes well for him, and he's pulling away in back. Looks like he is going to run away with this.

    Phelps wil need an amazing breast and free leg to come back

    So fucking dumb.
  • Fly4Fun
    Lochte takes first, not sure how the rest went as the internet feed froze up on the last 50M...

    sounds like Phelps just got 4th

    The thing to remember is that Phelps after Beijing said he never wanted to swim the 400IM again, so his head might have been all there.

    Agreed, people like to watch sports in real time, especiall because the internet acts as a huge spoiler. You can air it again in prime time, but show stuff in real time too.

    Exactly.

    And instead they air an entire interview with Bela and I understood 2 words.
