Predictions for Summer Olympics?

[muy_thaiguy]

Who do you guys think will come out on top in the events?

[danodukebb]

America, do you mean overall medal count?

[Neoteny]

U S A! U S A!

And all that.

[muy_thaiguy]

America, do you mean overall medal count?

Individual events.

[Grooveman2007]

Tyson Gay for sure.

Michael Phelps sweeping the swimming with a perfect 8 golds

[Snorri1234]

Iran.

[ParadiceCity9]

Looks like we already have 3 for women's fencing

Michael Phelps sweeping the swimming with a perfect 8 golds

Only because Ian Thorpe has retired

Either way it's all a massive waste of money. I'm not sure of the situation in the US, but I assume it would be similiar. The Australian Institute of Sport spent about $50,000,000 for every gold medal for the last Olympics. Plently of other more important things to spend that money on besides 'gold medals'

Also for the entire two weeks China will become a massive beacon with a giant target on it's head for people who like blowing shit up - can't say i'll be too sadden if that does happen, but whatever

[ParadiceCity9]

Ya go Phelps

phelps won't get 8 golds

but he will tally 8 medals, which would make him the most decorated athlete ever i think they said on the internet somewhere

China for men's gymnastics.

[whitestazn88]

the russians looked pretty good from what i saw today in gymnastics though....
