GOLD FOR GEORGIA / BRONZE FOR USA


Well, the alert I set up from NBC to wake me @ 5am for the Women's 70kg & Men's 90kg Judo Finals did not come so I slept through them. This was probably a good thing consisdering I got to sleep about 3:30am after watching the preliminary rounds. congratulations to Rhonda Rousey of the USA winning the BRONZE and who brought home America's 1st olympic medal in Judo. A HUGE CONGRATULATIONS goes to Irakli Tsirekidze of Georgia who smashed the Russian Ivan Pershin in the 1st round of the finals to bring home the gold. I was able to watch all the match replays and was very excited for all.
