I pick the same as you, except for WD; my pick goes to YW/ZJW. Before the draw was announced, I would have picked CJ for MS...but with CJ and LD in same half, then LD would be my pick for MS. dark horses would be Kuncoro and LHI/PSH.
I hope Yang & Zhang show up in a form closer to how they were 2 years ago than the form they've been in recently. Lately they've been pretty passive and flat but they have so much depth they still beat pretty much everyone. However I'd like to see them blow everyone off the court like they used to, it's much more fun
May be Zhang Ji Wen is thinking about her marriage soon......once OG is over....Come on Vita/Butet....this is your chance..!!..

Who will win Badminton Golds for Mens Singles & Mixed Doubles at Beijing OG 2008 ? . So ... Badminton Gold medals at the Beijing Olympic Games 2008 have been awarded; MD to INA (KIDO Markis / SETIAWAN Hendra) WS to CHN (ZHANG Ning) WD to CHN (DU Jing / YU Yang) In less than 24 hours, I hope Gold medals will be awarded as follows; MS to MAS (LEE Chong Wei) XD to INA (NATSIR Lilyana / WIDIANTO Nova) .
yeah, i also hope that lee chong wei will win the badminton gold in the mens single category later tonight.!
^^Are you ready??????...^^ ...George, are you ready for tonight???.....I hope BC is bracing for a big turn out tonight...
yeah.im 100% phyisical and mental ready for the action now! let the match begin! chris, btw now your are back in usa already?
^^Off topic-Haven't finished shopping for souvenirs, yet..^^ ...i haven't finished buying all the souvenirs, yet, so, i'm sure you can guess where i am now...
So every single one of my guesses have been wrong so far, hopefully this beautiful trend continues and LCW takes the title!!
Me too, YY/ZJW, LL, LYD/JJS were out and only LD and LN/NW left...I was so very sure that YY/ZJW will win (I was hoping and wanting them to win) and was flipping between GL/ZB and NW/LN in XD, anyway that makes no difference to the outcome anyway.
Peter Gade was right, things can be unexpected at the Olympics, as players play to their limit. So many unexpected upsets.. I thought XXF would win, but no? I thought JJS/LYD will win but no?? ;( I'm bad at guessing.. Let's just hope LCW will win.
The journey to MSF is unexpected with upsets in past OLY...this time, the unexpected did not occur, even though #1 has the edge and favour to win by most baddy fans, #2 can beat #1 given the right conditions...that makes a very exciting final and so far, the game has been executed with fair play, minimum or no controversy, which best befits OLY spirits...whoever wins, the payday will be huge.
It is tough..so far mu guess was right, Du Jing/YY and MK/HS..........lets see other 2 tonight.......in WS, I voted Tine....
