Water Polo is impressive as hell. They are out there drowning each other and swimming forever.

Friend from my dorm at Indiana played water polo. He was a fucking fish. We were at South Padre for spring break and he was just out treading water for about 2 hours past the drop-off/sand-bar and didn't drift more than 50 yards.

The men’s and women’s 4x1 races were fun. Italy rising up!

Is this Chris Webber commentating the gold medal game? He tries to provide so much analysis on a play that by the time he finishes two more things have already occurred. He rushes his speech to try to keep up.

I thought as much as France kept hanging around and cutting the lead again that the US would lose this.  But every time France got close US went on a run. 

Great effort by France, though.

Vince Carter. Webber is contracted by Turner, this is Carter’s first broadcast and he was excellent all tournament. I think he gets scooped up by Turner or espn quickly.

This men's beach volleyball match is just awesome.

Sorry, but way more athletic and entertaining than women's. Actually the difference is pretty comparable to men's vs. women's basketball.

I saw him and Maria Taylor earlier in the telecast, didn’t realize he was on commentary as well. It sounded a lot like Webber to me.

Speed climbing.  W....T....F.....These guys move like monkey-spiders.

I actually watched the women’s competition the other day and was intrigued. It was definitely interesting.  


Far better than “speed walking” which is one of the dumbest things I have watched  in the Olympics
