Message: [QUOTE="Flutterby, post: 2139113, member: 1853"] Yeah - who deleted it?? But yeah - love the relays. Was laughing about the amputee one though cause the commentators were all worried we would get DQ because we didn't finish with the baton. And I'm screaming at the tele "They don't have to in the amputee relay they can request to not run with a baton if they have above elbow arm amputees in their team. You aren't very observant Heath (the first runner in our team) didn't even have the baton on the start line." The funniest thing was the chick commentator is an arm amputee sprinter herself who competed in a number of relays at Paralympics and World Champs - and she didn't even know that was the rule. And yeah the WC Rugby. Seriously the US totally out-played us in the Gold Medal match and are definitely once again far and away the best team in the world. But the boys are totally stoked with the Silver (had a quick chat to a couple of them this morning). They went into the games expecting to finish anywhere from 5th - Bronze, so to get the Silver is totally awesome. _woohoo_ Finally beat Canada to take the Gold in the Men's WC Basketball as well icon_thumbs_u And awesome marathon this morning. 10 guys came into the stadium pretty much together so basically a sprint finish after 42Km!!! So glad Kurt hung on to win it - he hasn't had the best games to that point. Props to the whole Aussie team - they did awesome. [/QUOTE]
