For me highs: Phelps caning ass, Jamaica on the track, the opening ceremony, some of my countries performances (New Zealand). Interesting: the weightlifter who dropped the bar, drug accusations, US dropping the batons. Whine: Kind of boring this time around, some sports shouldn't be in there, it was overhyped and took to long in the build-up. Next Olympic games I won't watch as much as this time.

Midnight Frost Posted at 5:42 am on Aug. 26, 2008 Phelps and Bolt, of course. For me, Singapore won our first ever Olympic medal in 40 years. A silver in the women's table tennis team category.

The man died, but his wife is ok. I'll also remember that the US Jumping Team FINALLY made gold, but I'll remember that incident more. Erin15 Posted at 6:08 pm on Aug. 23, 2008 Valerie Vili winning the gold, as well as the Ever-Swindell twins and their amazing win. Also the controversy with China cheating and such.
