For some reason I'm totally entertained and amazed by gymnastics. I've been watching that the most. I also like to watch
diving... but I pressed a button on my remote and it made the DVR lose what I was watching so I got pissed and had to look up the results online.

I think you missed the point Alex. Don't care what they won. This is an even all to itself. He wins silver for his efforts towards the most unflattering picture.
Oooooooooooh. Right. Totally knew that.

Team GB still third and with only four days of the Olmypics left and 3 Golds ahead of Russia, we may just keep the spot! I really hope we do anyways .

Mmm well they do have home-field advantage so I guess that revs them up a bit. The gold medal race was close at Athens. US was first with 36, but China was second with 32. Now though, China is WAY ahead.

They probably have a lot more people entering this time around because it's the home games, I mean they have pulled out practically all the stops for this Olympics. Plus when I was watching the opening ceremony I noticed them comment on the Greek team being significantly smaller then it was last games when they hosted it, so it seems to be the fashion.

That entire race was insane. First time I've seen TWO disqualifications in a race. Better yet, the 2 disqualifications gave the US silver and bronze.

.Yep just gymnastics because it gives them a big advantage in terms of flexibility. Apparently North Korea had someone kicked out a few years ago because they claimed the same person was 15 for 3 years in a row.

.Just for Gymnastics, yeah. Because the younger the competitor is the lighter they're likely to be and so will have a greater strength/weight ratio making almost every event easier. Gives you a huge advantage.
The movement in diving is controlled by gravity so as long as you're strong enough to cope with the spins and everything it shouldn't make too much difference.
Boo. Laser got there first.
