Will start today...two days before the official opening?...FOOTBALL
...Yawa...hewa iko aje since Jakom landed jana?

the pressure is on some countries like the mighty USA who are now pushing for total medal count instead of gold for medal table placement china is likely to upstage them either way.

south africa is also under intense pressure being the continental powerhouse they have set 12 medals as target i see them going back home with 2 medals.

kenya and ethiopia likely to account for 80% of all africa medals with botswana,zimbabwe,nigeria and south africa getting the rest

most african countries like tanzania and zambia are just hoping even for a bronze this being the Olympics thats a tall order

also most likely

800.... jelimo
10000.... vivian

Absolutes are :
3000 m steeplechase any of the 3 Kenyan participants
800 m Rudisha. The others will be bonuses. But both Vivian and Jelimo look like good value. I think 4 gold medals will be a good return.

@cnn...even I and I pray for ths but some quarterz believe our preparation haznt been top notch and we myt struggle a grt deal but all said and done lets pray for our team,let them be in good health and shape and most def they will deliver.Did any of the Dunfords make it?na tungekuwa na a cycling medal if tht chris froom(sp) dint change citizenship.
