Don't follow it, tried following futball until a Brit let me in on the bit that I missed: Britain doesn't consider futball an Olympic sport and most countries only field their amateur players with one or two professionals. Kinda killed my motivation to watch :\.

Pssshhh, you can sleep soundly at night knowing it's because of 'Murica that you have your freedoms. I kid though.

The revolutionary way did happen though. Ole George crossed the Delaware with his army and changed history for all of eternity. :D

Without being completely biased to the British team, Bradley Wiggins produced some amazing times at the time trial and deserved his gold medal. Hopefully more people will be inspired to cycle!

I'm not following the games as much as I should. With regards to china and america taking all the medals, well, they can because their population sizes means they have a greater pool of talent and opportunity. Ah well, wish team GB had more medals but I guess we're doing ok!

I am ready to meet my Maker. Whether my Maker is prepared for the ordeal of meeting me is another matter.

I just saw that Track cyclist on tv just now, pretty interesting to say the least. They look like they may die if they wrecked.

not just that kenyon. they have the money to pay for the infrastructures, the people in charge of the training, etc..
if it was just about population size you'd see brazil, india and russia getting all the medals too
