I can’t think of anything better than watching two Eastern European countries scratching, biting and gouging each other’s eyes out until the pool runs red with blood. In tonight’s Olympic men’s water polo the Croatians are playing the Italians and both teams are considered medal chances. I am going for the Croatians to record a win as I would love to see them face off against the Serbians for the gold medal. It would make the USA v Russia ice hockey final of yesteryear look like a debutante ball!
