Olympic Live Thread Goodness: The Queens Of The Sand Go For Gold
8/20/08
If you're on the site, then you already know the result of tonight's biggest race - the men's 200m. But don't worry, there's a lot of other stuff on tonight that we haven't already posted on.Strangely, for the second night in a row, NBC has decided to show the Olympic debut of BMX bike racing live. I have no idea why in the hell they're doing this, other than that they want to corner the under-12 market. I mean honestly, can't we get some handball in primetime for crying out loud? Two days of live BMX racing is two days too much.
At least to top off the night we get Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh going up against the Chinese duo that was the last team to beat them in any competition anywhere - and that was back in June of 2007. Treanor and Walsh have since hammered them multiple times. NeedlessI think I'll go with Treanor and Walsh winning their second gold tonight.
Tonight's Primetime NBC Schedule
8pm to 9pm - The stars of Olympic gymnastics competition perform exhibition routines at the Champions Gala. Also, the men's 200m dash. The U.S. swept the event in Athens, led by Shawn Crawford, who's back with another strong American group. The favorite is Jamaican sensation Usain Bolt, who already won the Beijing 100m in world record time. Also, women's 400m hurdles.
9pm to 11pm - BMX racing is a new event at the Olympics - an all-out, full-contact race through a twisting course dotted with jumps. Though the event is unpredictable in nature, the American men have unmatched depth, featuring 2007 world champion Kyle Bennett. On the women's side, Jill Kintner was the top American finisher at the 2007 World Championships (LIVE ET/CT).
11pm to 12pm - Defending Olympic beach volleyball champions Misty May-Treanor and Kerri Walsh try to confirm their status as "Queens of the Sand" in the women's gold medal final (LIVE ET/CT). They face competition from a Chinese tandem that holds home-court advantage.
