Now hopefully Japan can finish off what they started in December, 1941.

Rooting for Japan in that game is rooting for China.  :mad:

Huh.  I don't think I've ever seen this freestyle dressage (equestrian event) before.

Only one rider left out of the whole field?  That's pretty awesome.

The damn stream isn't working for me for some reason.

Yep definitely worth catching, it was like a cartoon comedy crash, everyone but the out-front Kiwi imploded into this mass of bikes and riders.   :)

By no one you mean Canadians.
are they hot? Female athletes should be judged on attractiveness alone... And maybe sandwich making skills.

Karma baby. Çanada scores in the last minute.

First team medal since 1936

Now hopefully Japan can finish off what they started in December, 1941.
