U.S. is leading by 1.3 over Russia with floor exercise to go.

Wow, Phelps made a big mistake in the end and got stunned by Clos. Not the same guy from 4 years ago at all.

Good job at 4*200 relay though. 19 medals overall.

For reals though. That US Women's Gymnastics team DOMINATED. Wieber's floor routine was INCREDIBLE.

Wow, 4 pairs of players in Badminton double got disqualified for trying to throw the final match of group game, including the reigning world champion.

Magnus wrote: Yeah, all the people who say Phelps isnt the greatest are idiots. 20 medals. Shut up. Yeah, I don't get the comments that he's basically has been after he fails to medal in 1 damn race. One that he retired from and decided to do pretty much last minute and didn't train for. Although whoever the girl is that had the 18 medals had it in gymnastics and in my opinion, would be the harder sport to dominate in. But, now the US has the athlete with the record so that's awesome. ![Big Grin :D](./images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

Phelps' dominance is undeniable. His record speaks for itself. The only knock on the guy I've heard is that he doesn't have the best work ethic....and that came straight from one of his teammates.

http://www.nbcolympics.com/news-blogs/c ... crash.htmlQuote: Adams said the cycling incident was different because paying fans "were not deprived of a competition."
I could see the argument of the two incidents being different, but using fans as an argument to determine whether to disqualify a player or team is pretty insane. So now it's all about fan booing or not? Still think there is a double-standard here.

Steeplechase is hands down the most retarded inclusion in the Olympics. What separable athletic skill does it take to jump over 4 hurdles in a lap and a giant puddle vs running and hurdles

Bummer for Tweedle. She lost out on gold by just over a tenth of a point and that was with a massive hop on her landing and not holding it. She still got bronze but gold was right in her hands.

Ponor got ripped out of that Bronze on beam and I thought her score in floor should have been closer to Aly's. 15.2 with all those stuck landings. smh.
I'm looking forward to the 200m final. I hated how the did the mens high bar final. That was weak, but it was cool to see the guy who got gold with all those releases and the all important stuck landing. Cool to see the Aussie win the 100m hurdles as well.
oh and the attempt for a 3rd beach volleyball gold will be fun to watch too.

One reason is that the preliminary round of team event determines the lineup for individual event finals, but they could have individual finals after the team preliminary and then come back to it afterward as you suggested.
