I'm still waiting for the day when a guy who's already lost (or won) just says "**** it" and does a cannon ball. That will be a awesome day...lol Watching this dive is brutal. Ouch.

Re: The 2012 London Summer Olympics Thread
Anyone else see the crap that the judges tried to pull on Aly Raisman last night during the balance beam finals? A near-flawless performance and they tried to deduct 1.4 from her, a huge amount of deductions...you get a 1.0 point deduction for falling off the beam and she didn't even come close. This put her in 4th-place.
Bela Karolyi was in the stands SCREAMING and waving to appeal...so her coach did. The appeal basically forces the judges to watch the video and make sure they gave her credit for all of the elements or deducted something the should not have, which they clearly did one or both. Her more-accurate score came back and she won the bronze. They were trying to screw us big time. My wife even said, "look at all of the judges watching the video, they're ALL ASIAN!" Guess who won gold and silver? Yep, China.

 Love the MacKayla memesThe US women's relay team smoked the competition last night. Wasn't even remotely close and they broke a world record.  She was pointing at the sign before she even crossed. She knew it was going to be a WR.  NBC told to shut up. Boxing: NBC asked to cease ringside commentary - Yahoo! Sports

Re: The 2012 London Summer Olympics Thread
Sick dive this US kid (Boudia) just did. He's the first American man to win a gold in diving since 1992.
US Women's volleyball had a meltdown of epic proportions. After crushing Brazil in the first set, they got their asses handed to them the following 2 sets giving Brazil the gold.

Re: The 2012 London Summer Olympics Thread
I've done a back flop off a high dive and it hurts like hell. It also knocks the wind out of you and there is nothing worse then having you body trying to gasp for air when your in the water.
