Go as fast as you can without looking like you are trying? I think...

bob do you happen to know whether that previously unmentioned site shows true live coverage- live to tape- or in what time zones it is live?

also- is that really Olympics coverage? I see very few Chinese people in those competitions and afaik there are well over a billion chinese people at these games.

Wow jesus the IOC have banned Ara Abrahamian (Swedish greco-roman wrestler who protested after getting his bronze) for LIFE because of that incident, also they have taken away his bronze.. wtf? they made a mistake in his semifinal, he protests in the only venue it will cause publicity and they ignore all the reviews and refuse to admit they mad an error... so ****ing corrupt its unreal, never watching greco-roman again. It doesn't exist to me if they don't change this decision
