Chad’s Olympic Preview for Wednesday, August 1st
The United States needed yesterday. We have been toe-to-toe with China in the overall medal count, but our biggest stars, like Michael Phelps and Ryan Lochte, hadn't quite been living up to their billing so far in London, though they rocked it out for gold last night in the mean's 4x200 meter freestyle relay! It just seemed like Team USA needed a great big jolt. And they got one last night, as the U.S. Women's Gymnastics Team just put a virtual beat-down on the rest of the world in the team competition. They won gold by over 5 points, a margin of victory rarely seen in a sport usually decided by tenths of a point instead. So, what can Team USA look forward to today?
