Can you feel it? The breath of past Olympians in making its way down the muscled backs of our USA team members as they prepare for Beijing and the 2008 Summer Games. God Bless Team USA.

We’ll be LIVE from our Brute Adidas studios this Saturday for another 2 hours of wrestling talk starting at 9:06 AM CST. Join us for a lively discussion on wrestling. The Olympics are days away and the best America has to offer will be showcasing their talent in Beijing, China. The results of their hard work, determination, and dedication will be evident. We should all take a moment and give thanks and offer a silent prayer to our Team.
