^^ The only bad news about that win is that we'll all now have to suffer Lazie girl dribbling and swooning all over the site. :D

Fabregas   

i didn't know about him, but i watched him run a fast 200 metres before the olympikz, in which he slowed down considerably on the last blend. I just thought that he could do sumtin especial if he went full speed.

 

 

Ngonge, lazie is obsessed with these non Somali "hunkz", doesn't she knew anuguba hunkz ban nahay( in our own SOmali way)? :D

 

p.s. Mohamd Farax flopped it like a true a farax 2day! :mad:

Australia vs The Dream team is on tonight. [/QUOT]

 

Redeem team dashed the Aussies hope for a medal with 116 to 85 "easy win." 2 more wins to the Gold...

 

As our Somali young lads, they try and came short, but they are definitely winners by default for repping our land. ;) Kudos to them, they are still young and will come better next time.

IAAF: Bolt Tested At Least 11 Times in 2008

Jamaican Usain Bolt, who competes in the 200-meter Olympic final Wednesday night, has been drug-tested at least 11 times in 2008, according to Nick Davies, a spokesman for the world track and field federation (IAAF).

Bolt was tested four times out-of-competition by the IAAF and three times in-competition, Davies said. He also has been tested four times by the International Olympic Committee--including three blood tests--since he arrived to China, Davies said.

Davies said Bolt and fellow sprinter Asafa Powell are among the 22 elite Jamaican track and field athletes included in the IAAF's targeted testing program. The IAAF spends $2 to $3 million annually on the program, Davies said, to ensure that athletes in nations such as Jamaica and Kenya that do not have national testing programs get tested frequently. Powell, Davies said, has been tested 13 times this year, six out-of-competition by the IAAF, three in-competition and four by the IOC.

Davies said IAAF medical officials assemble longitudinal profiles of the athletes' blood work to look for abnormalities that suggest doping could be going on.

Bolt's and Powell's results "look OK," Davies said. "If it didn't, there would be massively targeted testing on them, simple as that."

^^ Err, she competes tomorrow, which is why I brought the subject up. Still, now that she's in it, do you think the London games will have more UAE girls taking part?

 

Her male cousin didn't win his event (shooting). He was a gold medalist last time.
