Hmm...it would appear as though the Beeb's streaming was lagging a bit today!
25 golds now, over so many sports. Good job.

No, I REALLY doubt it.

Since 1991 they won 2 out of 6 World Cups and 4 out of 5 Olympic titles. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_women%27s_national_soccer_team#World_Cup_record |
Seriously. I still remember when they won the 1999 World Cup against China. My sister had all the Mia Hamm posters. 
I've always loved our girls. The guys need to step up.

I figured as much, it pisses me off how they tally their table, their's is so wrong it's unbelieveable. It's not a tally count that decides who is top, it's the gold count!!! lousy Yahoo ¬_¬

We have 4 more people in boxing semis, 2 sailing teams guaranteed at least silver, the BMX cyclist and Mo Farah, might be others. Could we convert 5 more?

wow, didn't realise there were that many chances left. I'll be honest, once the Taekwondo started, I stopped caring about everything else.
