Speaking of Cuba and sore losers, did anybody see idiot Tae Kwon Do sore-loser Ángel Matos kick the referee in the face after being disqualified for taking too much injury time? He earned himself -- and his unapologetic coach -- lifetime bans from the sport. I understand Matos' frustration at getting a DQ while he was winning. The injury he sustained is a common one in lower-level sparring: two kicks, or a kick and a block, collide painfully. But the World TKD Federation (WTF -- love the acronym) rules in effect at the Olympics only allow a minute of injury rest time, and Matos exceeded it. Nonetheless, every martial artist, learns that the sport is not about being Chuck Norris, but about respect, discipline and self-control. Dave In Soviet Cuba, kick judges you!

During the closing ceremony, everybody cheered the USA team, and booed the Cuba team, because Cuba left the games one day before the end - the Zero Hypothesis was fear of desertion, the Alternative Hypothesis was the aerial chaos in Brazil. did you happen to see the joke on letterman about the chinese volleyball girl? No. BTW, how can China still have female teams, with its enormous abortion rate? Alberto Monteiro ___ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l

No. I think it was one of the Chinese beach volleyball teams, probably Xue/ Zhang? BTW, how can China still have female teams, with its enormous abortion rate? They still have a huge young female population even if it is slightly lower than the young male population. Plenty of scope to find a Xue Chen (a 6'3 beach volleyball player) and so on. In fact I should think China is the country with the world's largest young female population despite gender imbalance followed by India (which also has a male excess).
