YTF was Lisa Leslie wearing all her other Olympic medals on the BB podium? How low-class tacky was that? What's wrong with that? Their team came through --- she can celebrate however way she wants, plus I believe she's the only female that can lay claim to being part of a team that's won gold in 4 straight Olympics.

I didn't see Michael Phelps wear his multiple medals every time he stepped onto the podium to get another. I don't recall seeing Steve Redgrave wearing his 5 gold medals from different Olympics when he received his last one. You would never have seen Carl Lewis or Al Oerter behaving like that. Oh, Lisa Leslie was supposed to win all those medals. No other country has a collegiate system or a league like the one she plays in here. It's not like she had to go to any particular extreme of athletic endeavor to win those medals. Basically she just had to show up.

What did the softball team do? ] Lost to Japan and the disappointment in coming second was just palpable since they were the odds-on favourite to win it all since they had never lost, ever. I think the fact that this could be the very last Olympic softball match (at least for all of them) could have been a major part of that.
