And Beijing is rolling!
Olympics:
Opening ceremony is history now, so it’s time for athletes to go and compete for their countries. Oh true, they have already started that on Wednesday…
Predictions for Basketball: Gold USA, Silver Argentina, Bronze Spain
Predictions for Soccer: Gold Argentina, Silver Brazil, Bronze who cares
Predictions for Tennis: Gold Federer, Silver Nadal, Bronze Nalbandian
Predictions for Tennis Doubles: Gold Bryan Brothers, Silver Nestor/Niemeyer, Bronze Nalbandian/Cañas
Predictions for Canada’s Medals: 11
Predictions for Argentina’s Medals: 10
Other Predictions: Not important
If you are lucky enough you will be able to find the sport you want to watch on TV. If not, you are stuck to whatever CBC and TSN feel like surprising you with.
Tennis:
Last week we said it was up to Nadal to become the new Tennis king. And he did not let us down. Semis in Cincinnati and the #1 is his. Congratulations!
Soccer:
Argentina’s Apertura (not the Clausura!) starts this weekend. Independiente has acquired many different new pieces to their puzzle. Racing is looking to survive one more year in the biggest and most important soccer league outside of Europe. Boca decided to keep the base of the team that almost (and the key word there is almost) won something last semester. River is trying to figure out if there is life after the Ortega scandal. Argentinos and Estudiantes will also be playing in the Sudamericana. San Martin de Tucuman returns to the main division after so many years. Intense; Passionate; Controversial; Delighting; The Apertura is on, sit and enjoy!
Basketball:
NBA Live 09 will have Tony Parker on its cover page. Are you serious? I rather it was blank. Unless the League and the Video Game Company are trying to promote selfish behaviour or media-filled lifestyles, this decision makes little to not existing sense.
See you back next week!

I have to agree with those predictions. But when it comes to how many medals Canada and Argentina will get, it comes down to how many medals will China win. After all, their growth in the olympics has been extraordinary and one would expect them to show off this time.
All I am saying is that we should be happy with 10-15.
that's true!, it's actually a head-to-head competition between the US and China... some Capitalism vs Comunism type of thing
kinda interesting honestly
nadal sucks.
Daniel, you suck!
I believe daniel was referring to steroids, in which case I would have to agree with him...
