In the 10m platform, Tom Daley got a bronze. Matt Mitcham missed the cut for the finals.

But David Bodia got the gold! Considering that he barely made the finals in 18th place, I was stunned that he got the gold but happy. But all those guys looked great in their speedos. I like olympic diving much more than swimming because the guys still wear the tiny briefs and the girls all look so great in their tight form fitting one-piece suits. It's great to be able to see everyones thighs. I love it when they show the underwater shots and the divers look so sleek as they slowly rise up from the depths, and then they take a quick breath at the surface before plunging below again for a quick underwater swim to the edge of the pool. Magnificent!

And ill add to this--

Did you check out the girls beach volleyball? OMG is all I have to say. How those ever so tint bikinis stay on, ill never know!

It was a great win for him and I was glad. You can continue competing in diving longer than swimming so I hope we'll see them all again.

Here are the highlights for David Boudia from nbc

Thanks John. Pretty cool. The camera guys tried to keep the speedos out of the picture but at least it wasn't all the time.

Yeah - another trick they use constantly is they put the graphics up to block a view of the suits

What's the big fricken deal about the media showing below-the-waist views of swimmers and divers???

It's an athletic event -not a Sunday morning church service.

Is there some puritanistic Coalition For Family Values group that thinks a quasi-nude view of a guy's (or gal's) body is something unfit for public display???

Get over it already!!!

Right on CD.

I wish they would CD. The director chooses the shots and he probably is puritanical. It's stupid.

HYPOCRISY is the best word to describe it.

Jeesh...I saw that. Annoying.
