Same here. Whatever that coach was doing to McKayla, it had nothing to do with helping her jump. Honestly, as much as I think Maroney has a nice body, I'd be quite embarrassed to be tickling her all over on national television. That's weird.

Yeah....she's (cute)....but how old? And that cartoon voice makes her seem 10.

According to Wikipedia, she is 16. So it was perfectly appropriate for that coach to be petting her in Nicaragua.

What other events are you looking forward to that you are willing to wait until 11pm to learn the result?

Mens and Women's 200.....I'm pretty much watching most all of the 8:00-12:00 stuff.

I missed the women's final somehow and just watched it online and it sucked.

You know darn well the 1st and 2nd runners in the men's 10k are dirty too. Talk about amazing improvements overnight. All the money spent on them in Oregon, the doctors paid for by Uncle Phil out-smarted the IOC and their tests.
Nik-e has a new product out- It's similar to EPO but it can't be detected. Available soon at Foot locker, and a "swoosh enhanced" website being launched post-Olympics.



Bolt will break the world record in the 200m, weather permitting.

No way this tiny island produces so many world class sprinters without dope. This is as bad as baseball in the late 90s & early 00s. Nobody can see this? Its a travesty. Just like Hank Aaron is still the true Home Run King...Carl Lewis is still the true World Fastest Man.

I know, right? I mean how do all those African distance runners get so good when they are all starving and have flies all over their eyes?
