Anyone seen the Cuban athlete kicking the referee in the head after he lost? LOL What's even funnier was that the crowd was clapping and cheering him on and chanting "Cuba! Cuba!" LMAO! I didn't see it, but check out this awesome picture. He's going to be banned for life. "We didn't expect anything like what you have witnessed to occur," said WTF secretary general Yang Jin-suk. "I am at a loss for words." WTF secretary . It stands for World Taekwondo Federation.

According o the rules there is a 1 minute injury to allow a taekwondoe athlete to recuperate on the floor. If he/she doesn't get up when the 1 minute is up he/she gets disqualified. Apparently the guy was seriously injured and was waiting for a medic to show up. When the medic didn't show up and the minute was over he got disqualified. Oy, such drama at these games. Btw, did anyone watch the team synchronized swimming. The Spanish was fantastic and got 9.5's. I think they really did some great work. It was awesome to watch. But the fucking Russians, they got perfect scores. Personally I would have favoured the Spanish. I think they did a better job overall.

Rightly so, that is a disgusting display of unsportsmanship behavior.

As soon as he started bawling when he won and all the hugs he was getting, knew he was on the rainbow team. From Pink News: "Gay hero Matthew Mitcham wins Olympic 10m diving gold medal" From gay icon, to Olympic champion, Australian, Matthew Mitcham has won his first gold medal. He is the only openly gay male athlete competing in Beijing.... And he did it with a near perfect dive, the highest marks given in the competition. AND he was the only competitor able to beat a clean sweep of gold by China in the diving events. First Greg Louganis and now Matthew! Bravo Matthew for being brave enough to come out so that your partner could share in your Olympic experience.

Out of 18 World Cups only once at the 1994 World Cup Final did this scenario occur,at least be more factually correct if your gonna badmouth a sport sir.

It's too bad they didn't show the other teams (Egypt!). I also really liked the rhthymic gymnastics finals. A lot. Unlike the "women" in "artistic" gymnastics, these chicks were pretty hot (except the blonde Russian chick who looked like she was hit in the face with a frying pan with the word "UGLY" embossed on it -- the gold medal winner OTOH was pretty damn foxy). My wife did point out that all of them had visible acne for some reason. Last Edited By: Hanson 08/23/08 8:05 PM. Edited 1 times.

They couldn't juggle the demands of American football, basketball and lacrosse with the two season soccer schedule. I'm a little sad. It was their first competitive sport and I'll miss watching them play. They were both good. Around here it is still a sport owned by girls, not boys. But those girl soccer players are considered to be the cool girls. And they are. Most of them are adorable. And fierce. Very fierce.

I totally agree--most of my English language learning students are from countries that love soccer. I'm doing my best to educate them about real American sports like basketball and (NFL) football. It's totally a cultural thing. What you were raised with watching or playing, you stay with during your life. My little soccer lovers, though, cannot accept anyone dissing on the "most wonderful game in the world." They almost get t.ears in their eyes when I say I'd rather pull out my fingernails than watch a soccer match. Sorry! I'm an American sports clod.
