| I wonder if Carrie Graf's reference to Cambage as a "baby" has gotten into her head a bit. She doesn't look nearly as willing to take contact today.

If they all want to foul themselves out then that should be fine with us.

Did she really say that, or is this more of the LLL is snotty meme? Because it's so ridiculous she may have actually said that.

That's how I heard it, but I suppose we'll have to wait for the instant replay.

Yes, she said words to that effect.

| It's fun listening to the raw NBCOlympics.com feed and hearing Graf beg for any call she might be able to wheedle. "Three seconds! Three seconds! ... No reset! The ball never hit the ring! ... Travel! Travel!" And that was just one possession...

carolyn peck just said that with a medal lj would tie lll, but of course there is a difference in color...'lisa's are all gold.'

It's been a rough go for Hammon today. Can't guard Harrower and can't score against Screen or Jarry...

True
If only Harrower could of played like this against the USA or in the game against France

i think if she lost 10-15 lbs, and sure up cardio, it would help her in the long run... humble opinion.

Probably for the best. She was useless in the 3rd quarter against the USA due to fatigue. Hopefully the extended break will have her able to contribute in the 4th. Would be nice because she has done next to nothing so far.
