Lol, for Gymnastics women...it will be a tough fight right? Between Russian and Romania? That was what happened in 2000
I am looking forward to seeing how that....oh...I am poor with Russian names but she is great with the uneven bars thingy...I only knew she is 25 this year and won some medals in the Syndey Olympics

I'm enjoying Great Britain cutting through the field in badminton :grin:

I personally thought the openning ceremony could have been ALOT better. The lighting of the torch was way to basic, (looked like a flamming matchstick to me) they could have done a lot more with it. I couldn't believe that Australia has the second largest team considering we have such an itzy population, wired. I also like the gymnastics. How can they do it. Must be all confidence. :???:

Well, U.S. women's gymnastics team is well situated after the prelims last night. I think if they'd have come out in first they'd have gotten over confident (thats a tendency for us Americans if you didn't know :lol:

) But now they're in second and it makes them see that they'll have to fight for it. Good. . . gooood :grin:
