I see it being between four teams right now. \n\n1. Dominican Republic - has incredible offense.\n2. USA - great pitching may help out a less powerful offense\n3. Japan - team that plays well together, has won olympics\n4. Korea - very strong team that has beaten Japan already

LMAO @ the number of ignorant people who think softball is mainly for women.\n\nGet your brain box out of your butts. 70-80 mph pitching from 43-46 ft from home plate would spin most of your heads.\n\nA few years back there was a mens softball team which exhibition toured the USA and Canada. This team played with only 4 men and never lost. The pitcher would pitch one inning from second base instead of from the pitchers circle and most nights he would strike out the side.

Sheik Ahmed Al Maktoum of the United Arab Emirates has won the first ever Olympic medal for the gulf nation in winning the double trap shooting event.\n\nMaktoum finished tied for 18th in the same event at the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, and earlier in the Athens Games had finished 4th in the single trap shooting event.\n\nThe forty year-old Maktoum, is a member of Dubai's ruling family, and was educated in the United States, at Western States University in Phoenix, Arizona.\n\nNewspapers in Australia after the 2000 Sydney games reported that as the Sheik went through the airport in Sydney, he was asked for his flight number by Australian customs. His short answer was reportedly "No number, no airline, my plane." Customs then asked for the registration number of his plane which he didn't have. He then told customs officials that he had five planes, and he just phoned for one of them to come pick him. A 747 showed up to take him home.\n\nUnited Arab Emirates medal history in various games.

I can't say that there was one moment in the whole Winter Games that I liked the most. Watching athletes' reactions as soon as they learn they've won the gold is pretty exciting. Especially seeing Shizuka Arakawa win Japan's first medal. Even Lindsey Kildow's crash inspired something. Just watching the Olympics is my favorite part.

<The first version of softball was invented in Chicago, Illinois in 1887 by George Hancock, a reporter for the Chicago Board of Trade, as a winter version of baseball. It was intended to be a way for baseball players to keep in practice during the winter.
