Well, Oprah is going to have 150 Olympic athletes, including Micheal Phelps, Nastia Liuken, Kobe Bryant, Dwayne Wade and others, here on Wednesday at the Pritzker Pavilion in Millenium Park.
Hitch: Tickets will be given out tomorrow at NOON just east of the pavilion.
If you miss out on tix, the show will be on September 8th.
Matthias Steiner from Germany won the super heavyweight weightlifting competition with a lift of 568 pounds.
His celebration after doing it is something to behold. This video is still shots but you should get the idea.
BTW…the picture that he holds is of his wife who died before the games. He did it for her.
Well, now that the swimming is done and the gymnastics are completed, what else is there? Volleyball, indoor and beach, track and field, basketball. etc.
Looks like the BB men are doing their job and are redeeming themselves after Athens. The women are rolling along as well. Perhaps double gold in basketball? We’ll see. Kerri Walsh and Misty May-Trainor are getting it done in beach volleyball. Those two are a machine. WOW.
Not sure where we stand in track and field ’cause I haven’t checked.
*grin*
Again, congrats to the women gymnasts, especially our all-around champ, Nastia Liukin and Shawn Johnson. Good going, ladies!!!!
More later.
My god, he really IS a fish. My hat’s off to Micheal Phelps and his teammates in winning the gold for the 4×100 medley relay. Jason Lesak proved that he was not the weak link.
WOO-HOO! 8 Gold medals. NO ONE has ever done that…..EVER.
