If they tape delay a 1 hour difference they can go fuck themselves.

They will. As I mentioned in this thread or the other one before this is the network that tape delayed shit happening in Vancouver for our west coast residents in the exact same time zone (and in the case of Seattle, a 2 hour drive away) in 2010, in order to slip shit into higher ratings slots

Greatest celebration for a Gold medal winner ever! Greco wrestler from Iran launches his coach in a chest to chest 5-point body lock, straight to his back.

Classic. As soon as it's on youtube, I'll link.

LOL saw that. I remember Karam Gaber (Egypt) doing that to his coach when he won his gold medal match in 2004 (it's on youtube). He is actually back in the finals and will be wrestling after the next Bronze medal match. Hope to see him win and toss his coach as well.

Edit: Gaber is up now.

Friggin' can't keep up. Flipping through three NBC channel on tv, plus watching track and field and wrestling streams at once.

Sensory overkill.


Oo....USA down to the Hosers 1-0 in soccer.

I am being a horrible employee and streaming wrestling on my phone (as I did with NCAAs). It's a horrible feed though. Gaber just lost.

Rapinoe just got a goal from the corner kick, may have been an own goal. But it was the equalizer.

1-1 USA has the momentum and looking a lot better in the second half.

Boo Canada!

usa gets a bull sh*t hand-ball call. wambach scores penalty kick inside the box.

3-3

(Pretty good game, other than the gift from the refs.)


open goal missed by wambach. (D'oh!)


She's cute. Wonder if she works at a strip club in the off-season, eh?

A 2nd huge mistake by bueller. Lunging 30 yards from goal allowing the Canadian to tun and make an easy pass


But rapinoe just BLASTED one!!! All even again!

Wambach with the PK to tie it up 3-3!!!!

There was an indirect kick because the goalie was holding the ball too long, then a Canadian player had a hand ball on the kick.

Alex Morgan just had a great cross to Wambach that was just a foot wide of another goal as the goalie was already down.

Just to clarify, all penalty kicks are "inside the box."

Free kicks can come inside or outside the box -- an indirect free kick can be either, fouls that lead to direct free kicks inside the box are penalty kicks.


And Alex Morgan with the winner as I write this!
