Olympics 2012!
Overly impressed of USA's success, 54 metals and counting.
To many athletes to list but a big thumbs up for:
Gabrielle Douglas all around final Gold, and entire fab five Gold Gymnastics team team Gold!
The dominate US woman's swim team's 14 metals including 17 year old Missy Franklin's 4 Golds in her first Olympic games.
Special thanks...
The US men's swim team's 16 metals and Michael Phelps unprecedented, jaw dropping, career world record 22 Olympic metals with 18 GOLDS!!!! Unquestionably the greatest Olympian of all time!

Sandra Izbasa, the today's gold medalist (women's vault) is the hottest chick in the entire competition.

And I said
Sandra Izbasa, the today's gold medalist (women's vault) is the hottest chick in the entire competition.
In other words, there are many pretty girls, but there is a single hottest chick.
Just study them all and decide by yourself:

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. That was my point, ha ha. I dont watch sport to admire someone's beauty. I do it somewhere else.

Re: Olympics 2012!
Cheers Remus,
I've not seen the big events yet. Our big event TV broadcast has just started, and my DVR is set.
Tried to stay away from my tread and news to avoid the spoilers. I still don't know what happened for the rest of the results...
But Wow! My heart goes out for McKayla Maroney, I thought this was going to be her night, but a very big congratulations for Sandra Izbaşa's gold metal vaults. Looks like Romanian has a new gymnastics superstar, home of the world famous Nadia Comaneci.
On the hotness scale I agree, certainly 5 stars, and you're fortunate to have such an Olympic champion. Our Alexandra Raisman is also an attractive 18yr old woman, I hope she has made it onto the metal podium I will know shortly.
Salute.
P.S. Freekarol commenting about sports athletes he doesn't watch nor have the slightest clue. Priceless!!!
Where did you find that picture of Karol's girlfriend a real looker she is!
Cheers karol my Shy-ted mate!

Re: Olympics 2012!
Special tip of the hat to Jamaica for not only making my favorite beer “Red Stripe” , but a country of only 3 million people sent 3 members each to the men and woman’s 100m sprint finals winning The Gold in both events with getting 4 metals including both golds and Usain Bolt's legendary repeat performance.
Since we guys get to see beautiful Sandra, I've provided some eye candy for our lady players. USA bronze metal shot-put winner Reese Hoffa. The future Justin Bieber.

2012 Victoria Pendleton, Won a Gold & Silver in cycling.
Tonight was her last race, shes retiring.
Her age is 31.
Not 16/18/21/23 years old.
40/50 year old men should get a grip, and take a look at a real women.
I think we can safely say.

Re: Olympics 2012!
London 2012 is the first year that all teams have a female competitor.
With tears in her eyes, "Yes," she said, "this is my dream come true."
It wasn't because she won a metal that made Bahya Mansour Al Hamad turn emotional.
The 20-year-old had just finished the 10-meter air rifle, an event not many people care or even know about. Her 17th-place finish left her well out of the medals, but three letters on her athlete's bib said it all. "QAT" stands for Qatar, a country that had never before allowed women on its Olympic team. Al Hamad is a pioneer, simply by her presence in London.
When asked whether she ever expected to take part in the Games, she could only shake her head.
As recently as 16 years ago, 26 national teams would have no female Olympic athletes. This summer marks the first time every team has at least one woman on the roster.
The last three holdouts - the Qataris, Saudi Arabia and Brunei – finally agreed to lift their ban on women athletes after considerable pressure and negotiations from the IOC.
Although Saudi Arabia, noticeably had its women marching at the rear of the delegation.
Qatar chose Al Hamad to carry their flag in the opening ceremony.
An important precedent and a step forward...
Congratulations for her courage...
