As we enter the final weekend of the Olympics, you know exactly what you'll be getting. Event after event after event. Should you choose to, you can pretty much watch the Olympics from the time you wake up until the time you fall asleep today, and I may just do that.First off, we have the US women's basketball team ready to kick some Australian butt. Then the US women's volleyball team is ready to do the same thing to Brazil.
We've also got plenty of track and field, including one of my all-time favorite events - the long jump.
And to top it all off, we even have sissy sports on today like table tennis and men's field hockey. So enjoy the day, and we may have a super late night thread as well, for those of you who dig team handball, such as myself.
Feel free to chat it up here all day.
