16 year old girl swimming faster than the mens gold medallist in the same event... tests clean, gotta love china.

Wasn't Lochte 23 seconds faster? She posted a similar/faster time on the last "lap" but then Lochte had swimmed quite a bit faster on the other "laps" so probably not as much power left.

the skeet shooting looks quite impressive, taking down multiple targets at same time.

Yes, but it's still mathematically impossible that she isn't either cheating or has a secret penis.

But why did you post that she was faster? HUUUUUUH? :) 23 seconds is quite a big margin, about 9% in fact. Which historically speaking is about what the difference usually is.

And Liverpool were champions over a portion of the season!

School-age children that turn up with accompanying adult 20 minutes before the event can take any vacant seats for that event for a nominal fee...
"Where are we going Mummy"
"Too stand outside the Olympic Village"
8 hours later
"Why are we still standing here Mummy"
"Because there were not enough spare seats for you little Johnny, because no one loves you"

:D

Oh God could they have not interviewed our poor judo bloke who got thrown! They might have let him go and cry somewhere first.

Oh and Eurostar is deserted. Quieter than it has ever been, so much for the deluge of visitors coming in that way.

And by the way there is no querying desicions in the winter sports. No video replay for figure skating when they could easily query things. And not for other subjective sports as far as I know. Balls going over lines is totally different.

Anyone else think the medals look unusually ugly this year?

Games is turning into a bit of a joke, we put far too much pressure on the athletes, and I'm sick of hearing great performance from team GB in 6th position!!!!!

The fact the world number 1 in Taekwondo Aaron Cook wasn't even giving a spot in the team says it all really.

Where have they got this word 'medalling' from? 'It was great to see her medalling/meddling' doesn't quite produce the right image!

It's more that some of the others are and it's a ridiculous thing to criticise.

I think she's fecking hot by the way. Not that she'd care :D

It's a bit harsh the badminton players have been disqualified imo, the tournament was set up that way, what do they expect?

They expect them to try their hardest to win, not to lose to avoid a draw they dont want.

Which people also paid to watch, it is in essence a very strong warning to everyone else.

Bollocks.
The aim is to win gold, not to win every game.
If they want you to ( play to) win every game they should have set up the tournament in such a way that winning will be required/give big benefits. Failing to set up the tournament in that way should get the organizers fired not the players disqualified that take advantage of such lack of foresight.
I mean, did they never see this strategic behaviour in other sports in group stages before knock out stages? What makes them think Badminton players would be any different if given the chance?

It's not sport if you abuse the system to get advantages. It is the systems fault that this happened but it was the players who made it so blatantly obvious what they were trying to achieve.
