Italy up on team USA Archery with 6 shots left I think.

USA took down the reigning champs S. Korea, but haven't been able to capitalize. However, they are starting to put up some 10's now.

Wambach scores @ in the 74th to put the US up 2-0 and clenching the US a spot in the tournament out of the group pool most likely.

Wambach and Rapinoe both taken out, 3 goals is enough.

In NBC's fantasy land they go for gold tonight.

In reality, it already happened and will be tape delayed 3 days.. lol I kid (but unless they're going for gold at like 2am over there, it'll happen this afternoon over here and not tonight).

EDIT: actually it already did happen. Fuck you NBC

It's sunny and heavy rain on the Women's Team atm... need more white jerseys, get rid of the red stripes.

Damn, that was a short lived rain.

What's coming up soon involving the US?

When do the swimming finals start?

Am I Darbying?

Are people actually watching Women's basketball or is NBC just blindly pushing it?

It's the only thing I've seen on multiple channels at the same time. And they are already replaying the US v. Croatia game even though it just aired live.

By the way, to watch the Swimming finals in real time you have to watch on-line. NBC has decided not to air it live but save it for prime time.

Lochte had a .33 lead after fly, which bodes well for him, and he's pulling away in back. Looks like he is going to run away with this.

Phelps wil need an amazing breast and free leg to come back

Lochte takes first, not sure how the rest went as the internet feed froze up on the last 50M...

sounds like Phelps just got 4th

The thing to remember is that Phelps after Beijing said he never wanted to swim the 400IM again, so his head might have been all there.

Agreed, people like to watch sports in real time, especiall because the internet acts as a huge spoiler. You can air it again in prime time, but show stuff in real time too.

Exactly.

And instead they air an entire interview with Bela and I understood 2 words.
