Summer Olympics 2008

Phelps got the 8th gold
Its being called a "Phelpsian feat" by the guys he swam the medley with.

Yep, I just saw it on the news. Yay Phelps.

Unbelievable! (though it is believable half way)

I have a chihuahua and I made her glasses that looks like Phelps swimming goggles. I took a pic of her and called her Chihuahua Phelps

Okay, so I know we talked some what about this already, but....I couldn't help myself.

IOC orders investigation into He Kexin's age

Do you think they should strip He of her medals if she is proven to be under age, and what do you think this will mean for China and the '08 Olympics?

They better not take the medals away!

man, US teams dropped the batons in both men and women 4x100 m relay. Bad luck!

Yeah, I saw that too.

If China broke the rules, then of course she should be striped of the medals.

I don't think IOC do much here even after a guy found out that she is really underage.

If she really is underage I hope they do take action towards it. If they cant allow a simple tie between Gold Medalists they shouldnt allow cheating. Last I heard they where still investigating how old she really is.

This really scares me...I mean, if she was underage, what would they do to her? *tries to think postitive*

Probably just strip her of her medals.

I can't wait to watch the Closing Ceremony! Just watching the Opening Ceremony makes me know for sure it will be magnificent!

This website has the medal count of the 2008 Beijing Olympics.

overall, I think the Olympics is good. I enjoyed some sports during the event. If China had played it fair, I think it would have been perfect. By fair, I mean about the underage scandal, faked opening ceremony singer, editing ceremony event...

so its true, the fireworks were faked?

Have you guys ever heard of the movie called "Forbidden Kingdom"? That movie is cool.

well, I haven't seen that one. Some of my friends said it's not that good. But the Monkey King is from the Journey to the West novel and it's a good novel to read.
