The 2008 Paralympic Games are underway in Beijing, China. A list of the sports and a background of the games is available here . This year there will be an unprecedented amount of coverage thanks to www.universalsports.com. There will be webcasts of full games on the website while they will have a daily recap show on their HD television channel. cnnsi.com has some photos from the games.
