I'm Really Enjoying The Water Cube Sports!

Bibi, Lili & Louis are running around Beijing having way too much fun, as was President Bush. Every game they went to, there he was! They didn't nail an interview, that honor went to Bob Costas. I have never seen Bush so relaxed in interview. He was so giddy and Bob was doing a nice job of grilling him.

Well if you the missed men's 4x100m free relay race, you really missed one of the best swim meets I've seen. What a nail biter! I still can't believe USA won. I guess that is why they call Jason Lezak a closer. I'm very happy for Phelps, Weber-Gale, Jones & Lezak! I look forward to Phelps trying to get 8 medals.

The men's basketball game was exciting also, just because China really had their hopes high and there was electric energy in the air. Having 2 presidents in the crowd, China & USA, gave that extra spark. I personally think China has put too much pressure on Yao Ming to deliver a miracle. He can't do it alone, basket is a "team" sport and you need the whole team to help win, especially against Wade, Lebron & Kobe.

Carrie Walsh & Misty May-Treanor are just mopping up the competition in beach volleyball. After all these woman have won 103 straight matches. I had the pleasure of watching them in Miami Beach...they are good! So that is 2 straight wins for them.

China is 2 for 2 in diving. The synchronized diving is an interesting sport to watch. That is really a lot of work to be synchro like that.
