According to rumours, it's once again a Riis who has tested positive for EPO: Peter Riis Andersen, a mountain bike rider.
He lives in my city  Another fact is that he's studying medicine on university level, but he's obviously not been paying too much attention to the classes

Surprisingly, he himself is at the press conference, admitting everything and going into detail with how he got it, what he doped with, when he used it, etc., etc. The guy's got some guts, actually. |

Take away the olympics from China damnit. They are a country stuck in the middle ages. They done nothing of the things they promised to do, they promised to open up ALL PAGES on the internet, but still they censur very much of the net, e.g The Tibet government page, the info about the massacre of demonstrants. They promised to fix the pollution, but the pollution showed the worst numbers ever in Chinese history some weeks ago.
And now just to confirm what kind of country this is, they sentenced a woman to 1 year in prison for picturing what the earthquake did to a school. She was prisoned for a year without even a trial or anything. They just put her away. If a country behaves like this they don't deserve the olympics.
P.S I'm not racist or have anything against chinese people, just the government that acts like bloody morons |

Disgraceful Brazil beat nine-man Belgium 1-0 in Olympics
Brazil got their Olympic football campaign off to a winning start but in doing so have left a very sour taste in the mouth at the manner in which they won the game.
Brazil spent the game basically diving and lets call it what it is; cheating. They succeeded in getting one Belgium player sent off with a disgusting theatrical swan dive and after going one up after 78 minutes proceeded to time-waste in the style of Jose Mourinho's Porto a few years back.
The Brazilians should be ashamed of this performance, they played awful football and lowered the game to the gutter, and this from a team that is supposed to play beautiful football, those days it seems are long gone.
Based on this performance it is very difficult to see how Brazil could possibly win the Olympic gold medal and frankly they do not deserve to.
The Belgiums are no saints either, they kicked the Brazilians from the whistle to the last minute, and never learned that if you breathe near a Brazilian they will go down and stay down for as long as humanly possible. The best one can say about the Belgians is that they are probably one of the stupidest teams to have ever entered the football field, they simply played
into Brazil's very negative game.
Overall this was a terrible game with cheaters in abundance. If this continues then the IOC needs to have a serious rethink about including Football in the Olympics.
The Olympics is about the beauty of the sport and while there are cheats all over the place ,in the Olympics none have been as obvious as these two teams today, and the Brazilians in particular.

What's the betting it's a cheesy, dancing, flame-throwing opening ceremony?
I'd say it's pretty much certain. Opening ceremonies are awful
