Matthew Mitcham Fails to Make 3M Springboard Finals
An update on out Australian diver Matthew Mitcham:
"Gay Australian diver Matthew Mitcham failed to make the finals of the men’s 3m springboard competition at the Beijing Olympics on Tuesday. Mitcham finished 16th out of the 18 divers in the semi-final, with only the top 12 divers going through to the final round. His teammate Robert Newbery made the final round with an 11th place finish in the preliminaries. Mitcham still has a chance at a diving medal on Friday in his strongest event, the men’s 10m platform. The preliminary rounds will be held on Friday night."

I think it fits quite nice. I love a hot guy in a Speedo.
