The Italian foil fencers are easy on the eyes in addition to being dominant on the strip.

Margherita Granbassi. She took the silver, losing to a teammate for the individual gold.

(I'm a former fencer and have been avidly watching the events thanks to NBC's excellent online streaming coverage.)

The Olympics are excellent.

BBC coverage is a bit rubbish if you're a dirty immigrant though (this is understandable - just frustrating). Have NZ entered any athletes this time? Not on my telly they haven't.

The US team winning the men's 4x100 freestyle! that was a thrilling finish even for a neutral. I wish all races were like that.

I think I remember one of the announcer saying that the NZ contingent had pulled out of the opening ceremonies. He didn't know why.

They were in it. I know because my father-in-law called us crying like baby about it.

Excepting swimming and track, crap.

If they ever bring this garbage to NYC, I am gone.
