They were hardly wearing anything. It was amazing. I have no idea if they won or loss. Hopefully, they won, and can continue on.

i have a question about beach volleyball, why do the women dress in these skimpy bikinis, while the men have long shorts and shirts? shouldn't the men have to wear speedos or an equivalent? i'm fine with it but I would think womens groups would complain about exploitation or something.

I don't think women's sports would be very watchable if they didn't do stuff like that, and a lot of men wouldn't watch men play sports if they had close to nothing on. So, to answer your question, it's to satisfy the male viewer. Yea, women watch some of this stuff, but notice how long they do it for. They get a call...They stop watching.....They remember that they need to do an errand..They are gone....etc. etc.. Men are more apt to say leave me the f alone. I am watching this. We will do this afterwards. Here's a 50. Go buy us some pie.

i knew the answer, I was just wondering why you don't hear any complaints from women.

Not sure that is the right answer. Some wacky gay designer for a big name sports apparel company comes up with these designs and the athletes are told...would you wear this for $50K in endorsements?

And they say sure!

yeah..but that's what many women wear to the beach and, at least in the US, that's what almost all men wear

Men's 200 Breast

1 Kitajima
2 Guerta
3 Spann

Women's 200 Fly

1 Jiao
2 Schipper
3 Breeden (Kentucky girl..GO!)

Men's 100 Free

1 Lezak
2 van den Hoogenband
3 Sullivan

Women's 4x200 Free Relay

1 U.S and A
2 China
3 France

As you can tell it's upset city in the 100 free. So much for chalk.

how old is Dmitry Sautin? he's been in the olympics for what seems like 20years, and he always looks the same.

Damn frog.
