Let's cut to the chase, now.... What events does Colombia have a chance for some medals in this Olympics?

?????????????

I gotta be honest; I never remember hearing the name, "Colombia" during any past Olympics. But, then I'm sure I wasn't reallly listening for it, either..., as my interest and awareness of your country only began to expand just a few months after the last Olympics.... when I was datin' that damn puertariquena who was always rubbing it in, after P.R. beat the USA in basketball, (if my memory serves me today)
