Beijing 2008: Olympics Control Center

Boxing: I abhor Olympic scoring. I also appreciate the scoring. Aggressive punchers may be slighted. However, technicians are rewarded. Today, favorites appeared vulnerable. The United States may exceed expectations.

Fencing: America sweeps. Mariel Zagunis garners gold. Sada Jacobson scores silver. Becca Ward bags bronze. I cannot comprehend this event. With that stated, I applaud our victory.

Swimming: Michael Phelps vs. Ryan Lochte. This afternoon, both were impressive. Their medley showdown is must watch.
