There should be a row of hurdles on the finish line of the hurdle events.  Wouldnt it be cool to have to jump over the finish line? 

Why does one volleyball player have a different colored uniform than the rest of the team?

I think it's for the team captain, but that's my best guess.

That's the libero.

A single player is designated as the libero before the game and they don't have to rotate positions on the court like the other players do. So they won't ever be at the front of the net and I don't think she serves either. They're defensive specialists who are supposed to get the most digs and keep the play alive.
 
McKayla would have probably won with a simpler and easier vault. Her coach is an idiot. She was probably feeling herself too much though and had some decent competition unlike Gabby in the all around and team USA in the team event.
 
Much respect to Bolt for stopping that interview, during the national anthem. :hat Even better that it just so happen to be the US one.

The fact that she landed on her *** on 1 of the 2 vaults and just barely missed gold is crazy. :{



Oh..and Patty ******g Mills :eek :eek :eek :smokin
 
:{ @ Kristyna Kolocova and Marketa Slukova DAMN.
So many of these new beach volleyball players I see could get it. Menegatti still looked hot even when she was crying when she was losing to May and Walsh.

The 100M was fun to watch except for the fact that I already knew who won beforehand. I went to S&T to post in the mma thread yesterday morning and someone posted that he won in the title of the track & field thread :{.
