3 Days until the Olympics Begin!

The Countdown has begun! There are only three days left until the 2012 Olympic Games opening ceremony! Here are three US Teams that could be repeat Gold-Medal Winners!



1.) The U.S. Men’s Basketball Team: After winning gold in Beijing, the NBA stars gained the name “The Redeem Team,” making up for their disappointing bronze-medal showing four years earlier in Athens. LeBron James is back, along with Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh.




2.) Women’s Eight: The women’s rowing team is looking to win their second consecutive Olympic gold medal. Six of the nine members of the Team USA from 2008 are back on the team in 2012: Caryn Davies, Eleanor Logan, Caroline Lind, Susan Francia, Erin Cafaro and coxswain Mary Whipple.



3.) Men’s Volleyball: The men’s team formed a united front after facing tragedy in Beijing when coach Hugh McCutcheon father in law was killed. However, the U.S. men won the gold medal for the first time since 1988 at the 2008 Olympics in Beijing after beating the 2004 Olympic champions, Brazil in the final.
