Yay…it’s finally here. And yes, I’d normally say Friday, but this is no ordinary Friday, it is the Friday athletes have waiting four years for and London has probably been anticipating all that could go wrong today for a long time. D-day if you will.
But, let me go back to “football”, aka soccer.
Here are the results from the men’s games yesterday:
**Great Britain tied Senegal 1-1 (This is where I get my geography lessons…never heard of Senegal…and how do you end things in a tie??)
**Belarus beat New Zealand 1-0 (If I asked you to show me Belarus on a map right now, bet you couldn’t do it!)
**Brazil beat Egypt 3-2 (Did anyone have a clue Egypt played soccer? I’ve got to upgrade my thinking)
**Gabon tied with Switzerland 1-1 (Gabon? Come on, seriously? It sounds like the size of Cleveland)

I can’t really understand what it is telling us, but maybe if I watch the ceremonies it’ll all come together….
The plans for tomorrow you ask?? Well, I’d like to see the men’s qualifying rounds in gymnastics…and there are some men’s swimming races…and according to the London 2012 website, there will be medals given out tomorrow in cycling, fencing, judo, shooting, swimming, and weightlifting.
So, here we go everyone….let the games begin…and GO USA!!!!
Whohooo! I am SO excited!
me tooooooooooooooo!!!
I’m with ya girl. Love watching the Olympics!
I look forward to it every time. And although I do enjoy some of the winter olympics, nothing compares to the summer games for me!
When I read your “Happy Opening Ceremonies” all I thought of was “Happy Hunger Games and may the odds be forever in your favor” YIKES!
Exactly! Only one survivor…..who will it be? LOL. I’m banking on there being a whole lot less participation if the Olympics were more like the Hunger Games. Oh, and I guess there wouldn’t be repeat medal performances. Hahaha.
