Number One!

Number one indeed!

On with the 200m.

In his trackside after race interview, Usain announced to Australia on National TV that he will be visiting downunder in September for a 'holiday'.

He's obviously not interested in slipping into the country 'incognito' and getting away from it all for a few days :g

Am still gutted by the result in the football (soccer) game, what an heartbreak ...

That game was amazing. To have got that goal right at the very last minute was incredibly fortunate for the US. Great effort by the Canadian ladies !

The American Ladies Football team have their work cut out meeting Japan in the final. Despite their small physique and nerdy look the World Cup winners are very very tough and determined.

I know which team I'll be cheering for. It's also one in the eye for the preening, full of itself men's team.

Brownlee Brothers looking very good in the late stages of the Mens Triathlon in Hyde Park. It will be interesting to see how they deal with the 15 second penalty on one of them.

Alistair gets the gold medal, while the Spanish triathlete Gómez Noya gets the silver medal. Jonathan must make do with the bronze medal.

Go Javier, go!!!

Isn't the World Cup enough soccer?

It is for me

With the exception of three "over age" players, the men's game in the Olympics is limited to players under the age of 23. That differentiates it quite a bit from the World Cup. On the lady's side, there are no such restrictions, so that does make it a little redundant. Having said that, the WNT's game with Canada yesterday will, at least for me, be the defining "moment" of the 2012 games. Talk about leaving everything on the field. Incredible efforts from both sides and a great win for the U.S. If you missed it, you missed something pretty special. Bring on the Japanese. Retribution is going to be a bitch.

100m hurdles final imminent. All Australia is anticipating a Gold medal from Sally Pearson. Australian commentator even suggested parents go and wake their kids up so they don't miss this Nation Building moment. Obviously this is a reaction to our shocking performance at these games. Sports types here are even claiming Primary schools need to take more responsibility to direct children towards sporting activity so as to help rectify this calamitous situation. Unbelievable. Anyway USA reigning Olympic champion Dawn Harper has plans to thwart the Nation Builders hopes.

And Sally wins. A great race. And the Nation Builders can live on.

Thank goodness the children weren't woken up for nothing less!

Meanwhile Lo Lo Jones taught an important lesson to all. Virgins are losers! Give it up!
