Umm...yeah.

Exactly. There has been so much focus and attention on the amazing swimmer that many of the Games' stars has been left in the dark. Here are some of the athletes you should watch in order to fill the void left with the conclusion of swimming.

Usain Bolt- The Jamaican sprinter won 100 meter gold medal and set a new world record of 9.69 seconds despite slowing up at the finish line. Look for his dominance to continue.

Liu Xiang - Heralded as China's top athlete, Liu is his country's first male Olympic gold medalist in any track and field event. There is enormous pressure for him to repeat in 2008, and I'm curious to see how he reacts.

Update: Just one hour after the writing of this post, Liu Xiang pulled himself out of the Olympic Games with an Achilles tendon injury. This is a huge blow to the Chinese.

USA Basketball - The "Redeem Team" has looked strong in pool play. If Jason Kidd continues to lead this team the way a veteran point guard should, look for the U.S. to win the Gold in convincing fashion.

Marathon Swimming - Making its debut in the 2008 Summer Olympic Games, "Open-Water Swimming" features 25 swimmers in both the men's and women's 10K race. South Africa's Natalie du Toit is a medal contender despite having her left leg amputated at the knee.

Mike Zadick - The U.S. freestyle wrestler easily has had the strangest road to the Olympics. During the qualification process, the United States did not qualify at the 60 kg weight class for the 2008 Summer Games. Bizarre injuries to Bulgarian 60 kg wrestler Anatoly Guidia and his alternate, Ismail Redzhep has given Zadick the opportunity to compete. Since winning a World Silver Medal in 2006, Zadick has struggled in International competition. He looked better than ever at the Olympic Trials in June and now has new life.
