re: Olympic Thread, 08-24-08 Sunday Last Day***NO SPOILERS***

This is an exremely high scoring game.

Is there a ledge for goalies to stand on, or do they have to tread water the whole time, too?

Make that 8-7.

We're not even done with the first half, this is normally about the total goals scored throughout the entire game (at least, based on some Olympic scores I've seen).

That was a big save for the US, already down 2. Going down 3, could have done them in.

Alright, down 5, this one's as good as over.

Still, nice job getting silver, guys! First Olympic medal for US men's water polo in 20 years.

I like this Chris Brown song, FWIW.

Make sure to remember that at 6 pm central, on NBC, the US men's indoor volleyball team goes for gold against Brazil, in what will be the final televised sporting event of the 29th Olympiad, 2008 Beijing Summer Games. Immediately following the match, the Closing Ceremony will be shown, putting a cap on a great, exciting two weeks, until 2012 in London.

In volleyball now, tied at one set. US up 16-12 in the third. Come on, USA!
