Irrelevant post: Olympic soccer

I forgot that the US men's soccer team is not in the Olympics this year (neither is Brazil, for that matter!), although, of course, the American women are.

My picks for the men:
Gold medal: Mali
Team I will be rooting for: Japan

My picks for the women:
Gold medal: 1st pick: USA; 2nd pick: Germany or China
Teams I will be rooting for: USA, Japan, Nigeria, and Brazil

Let's see how I do with my picks. :)
