Isn't diving cancelled? I thought the pool was being shut down due to the water.

Nope, first dive is pretty much done, Abel is 5th, Ware 21st. Not sure what channel it's on - I'm tracking results online without watching.

Apparently! That's a lot of pressure on one routine.

That GB routine on the trampoline looked really good.

Trampoline could be really scary if an athlete starts to get out of controlled as the Belarussian girl just showed.

Oh, I'm only watching out of the corner of my eye and missed that they had changed from the Canadian bench to the Americans.

The States took control in the second quarter. 36-22 at the half.

Only six points in the quarter for Canada, and half of those were on one play (shot/foul) in the last minute.

I am way too happy about the US women getting knocked out of the soccer tournament. Looks good on them.

Now for Canada to do their part against a very tough French squad.

I don't know if that will be good enough for gold for Rosie.
