The swedish press had been pretty depressed going an entire week without a single medal.

Hmm, hasn't the U.S brought home like half the medals, and 2/3 of the GOLD medals, so far? Didn't one of our guys even fall IN THE LAPS of the judges on a landing and STILL get the gold?

The problem is I only saw the tally of one day's medals, where the U.S. took home most of it. Things that happened other days I have no clue to, except for the one storry I read about Hamm. In fact, I thought maybe falling INTO the judges instead of simply falling might have been a way of HAMMING up the mistake!

Then again Canada supposedly put 70 million into sports for the Olympics whilst Australia had like 300 million. So much for the second biggest country in the world. :eek:

Nah, seriously I only saw the tallies for one day. It was on the TV news. I don't even know where to FIND the tallies for all days combined, but I guess I can search now...

It's about TIME China got the lead in gold medals, after all they ARE the largest country in the world and DO have the largest pool of athletes to choose from!

You know, I love won ton soup. I hope the Chinese don't start concentrating so hard on athletics and medals that they lose their won ton focus ...

We suck real bad. Our government doesn't care too much about our athletes. Our government feels its not necessary to spend money on facilities and wages for coaches and athletes. Its disgraceful. As rich as our country is we should always be in the top ten.

If by largest you mean in land size, then you're wrong, Russia is the biggest, then Canada and finally China.
