The Games Of The 30th Olympiad

Winnah winnah chicken dinnah!

Rodney you mentions the Germans making a fashion faux pas. i think it was Czechoslovakia. What the fuck is with the blue boots?

well at least it was meant to be funny. They wore those wellingtons because 'it always rains in London' The germans were actually serious! and to wear the SAME outfit, twice. that is just baaaaad. Did you see the Mexican outfits?

switching from channel to channel. got stuck on the BBC. My goodness...Mark Foster is so HOT. he still has the swimmers' body and lovely grey hair. grrrrr! Lochte has got NOTHING on him.

I watched some ladies gymnastics today! I missed the Brits but saw Russians and Chinese.

Is he gay? He looks it in just about all his pictures.

OMG! Dan you are going to LOOOOOVE Louis Smith, then. Gorgeous gymnast. He was overcome by emotion after he finished his routine on pommel horse. I remember him from Beijing.And i'm soooo happy for him to have hung on for four more years. Too lazy to look for a pic, now.

Yes!! He was wonderful and I almost cried right along with him. Little sweetie.

i love that the czechs had wellies and brollies plus they did say it was going to rain



i'm interested in sport rodney, just not the kind of sports they have at the olympics :p i will watch more of the paralympics and most of the winter olympics

Fine...you can stay:P

Dan- Mark foster isn't gay. he just made money out of looking very gay in pictures. like david beckham:P
I don't like Louis' hair but, I have been following his career for so long; just want hm to do well. so much pressure on him.

The chinese looked ill-prepared.They have a pretty experienced team but, LOTS of falls and out-of-bounds.. Most of them turned senior in 2009. Funny how nobody is questioning their ages now that, they're no thread to the US...
Rooting for the Russians; Russian gymnastics is where it's at!I don't think they can beat the americans but, you never know.

Tomorrow; the mens' team final! Shall i root for the hotties in the US-team?:P

How fabulous is our Bax with the Olympic torch.

Go Bax!!

I think I could get into this Olympics thing, it's interesting seeing sports I know nothing about, just caught some Judo and sailing.

Watching synchronised male diving.....we started well but not sure if we're going to get a medal. Nail biting!

We came 4th, China won, Mexico 2nd, USA 3rd

Missed it. i watched that kid jump back when he was 14 and competing in beijing. Hopefully he'll get his chance in the individual events.

watching the mens' gymnastics team final. Rooting for the brits. It's gonna be difficult for them to get a medal but, they are capable! Fooooking BBC! Sue Barker telling me that I have to switch to BBC3 if I want to keep watching gymnastics. Why would you switch to cross-country? Surely, gymnastics is more "popular" than cross country? I don't have BBC3- and Eurosports' commentators are so dumb. They get all the skills and elements wrong and keep fucking up athletes' names!

lmao that guy looks like he is trying to sniff his own balls. awkward pic

It's called a 'planche" and it's very difficult! and i bet is balls smell lovely

OMG! OMG! The brits win the silver medal! that's amazing! So happy for them!

The US...REALLY dissapointing. lots of mistakes. But who cares? a silver medal for team GB in gymnastics! I know Louis smith and Daniel purvis are world class but, who would've thought they could beat the russians and the japanese?

ooooh. the japanese lodged a complaint!

bronze for the brits. the japanese were right.

more like a panocha/panoche. lmao slang for vagina in spanish

LOL. women do the same skill on balance beam, i shall call it panocha from now on:P
"Vanessa Ferrari on beam...nice panocha"

Some columnist from the Daily Mail wrote about Elizabeth Armistead,winning britains' first medal and commented;

"She lost to some bitch from Holland"

Boo to Japan!!!! Poor Ukraine, at least we still got a medal.

Boo to the judges! They were the ones who did not count that skill.The japanese were robbed of 0.6 points!They were right to protest. A bit of a buzzkill for the brits. But like you said; they still got a medal. they weren't expected to medal at all. Poor Ukraine,indeed

watching the swimming on the BBC....i just love Mark Foster being one of the presenters. he looks like a grey super-hero and he comes across as a very nice guy.

Ian Thorpe comes across as a bit "gay", tho
