Well, Japan has a good deal to celebrate. They were in third, and are still in fifth in overall medal count. (Although somehow, in spite of being mostly disqualified at one point, Russia is still up there...)

Russia's been organizedly cheating at every single sport at a national level, even f&^$ing ping pong, for at least the past 10 years - but the IOC is even more corrupt than FIFA, so a nice big fat wad of cash took care of that.
And the Japanese athletes aren't as stupid as the USA Swim Team.
Oh boy, it was both intense and frustrating at the same time. Both of them are really exhausted by the third round.
It's about to start! I'm half surprised that Lin Dan would lose again in tonight's match and couldn't even bring home a bronze medal (no offense, Denmark!), can't help but think that the match yesterday took too much a toll on his body.
God dammit, watching Polish handball team is pure horror, guys. Evemn commentators says so, prepare for the worst and take your heart medicine. I don't think you could relate to such rollercoaster of emotions. One time, they are winning by 5 points, they lose by 3, then goalkeeper saves the day like HERO, they manage to draw, they lose... And manage to draw again 3 SECONDS BEFORE THE END OF THE MATCH. Seriously! I think I am happy with their lose against Danes, because I could not survive another match like this.
