    Wait I just turned on 4 and they said BMX racing tonight was that right?? I went to sleep before last night's turned it back on at 1:20 a.m. saw volleyball or a man in a speedo doing something or other so flipped it back off. Must have been tired. Bummed I missed it.

    He may have been in the unlucky bunch that crashed or got crashed into. I was personally rooting for Gravy...literally yelling at the tv for him to pedal faster :)
    It's fun to see some 'familiar' faces out there!

    Waaaaah! I was looking forward to coming home from work, camping out on the couch and watching BMX.

    I agree, hope they don't skimp on the coverage because of this!

    graves was killing it!!! just got finished watching the men's quarters online after finishing my homework and reading.

    such a crazy track and such crazy penalties for any loss of momentum. 30+ foot gaps are ridiculous.

    If anyone gets the listing when they'll show the finals Thursday let us know?

    Someone joked about there being speedwalking I haven't seen it but my sister's kids thought I was joking that my dad was a champion speedwalker (not Olympic) they couldn't believe it was an actual sport to walk fast.:)

    BMX should stay in the X Games where it belongs.

    All the USA riders did great! Too bad for Jared Graves, he was looking so great in the prelims.

    They showed a whopping 5 minutes of coverage! Bummer...

    Any word on Kyle Bennett? I noticed he wasn't in the final.
