First thread - Who do you think will win?

[Slowpoke]

Simple, who do you think will win the Beijing Olympics?

[Sammeth.]

I think America will take home the most amount of Gold Medals as per usual, but I think China may give them a run for their money. It will be nice to see Great Britain rise from their 10th position in last Olympics

[Mr.Sam]

GB have a target for 36 medals don't they?
america will win as always

[Malachy]

America always come up with the goods, especially with stars like Gay running in the 100m. Hopefully GB can get into the top 5.

[Funya Chin]

USA 1st
Russia 2nd

Always happens that's why the general winning is stupid.

China beat Russia in Athens 2004!

Yeah I agree. It's not often that another country will get close to those top two spots other than probably Russia.

1ST - United States - 102 medals, 36 gold
2ND - China - 63 medals, 32 gold
3RD - Russia - 92 medals, 27 gold
4TH - Australia - 49 medals, 17 gold
5TH - Japan - 37 medals, 16 gold
6TH - Germany - 49 medals, 13 gold
7TH - France - 33 medals, 11 gold

10TH - Great Britain - 30 medals, 9 gold

well that was in athens 2004 - but GB have improved alot since then. Should be interesting aswell because we beat France, Germany (i think) & Italy in the European Athletics, but then again we do have to rely on us doing well in the other events.
