Olympic Thread Damn it

Usain Bolt is just too fast.....he started slowing down in the last 40m of the semi-finals un -freaking believable

Still only 91% apparently.

Great stuff, I can't believe how much he destroyed Federer.

Excellent performance. Federer wasn't there and Murray seized the day. The double would have been sweet, but he could do some interesting work with Robson in the future.

Ben Ainsley is my 'Brit of the Olympics' so far. The steel he showed in coming back to win was immense.

Sailing?

Who gives a fuck about sailing...?

God I wouldn't run the 10000m at the pace they do it right now...I am exausted just watching them...:bottle:

Andy Murray was saying today that in training he can't do one 400 in training as fast as Mo Farah did after doing 9600m...

[VHscraps]

Mo Farah's 10,000 win was probably the most impressive thing I've seen so far in this Olympics. Over that distance so much can change in the course of a race that can mess up any pre-race plans. It's such a battle of mind and body. His finish was truly majestic, I thought.

And, yeh - as Sesh is alluding to with Andy Murray's comment about running 400 laps in HIS training and not being able to match Farah's last lap time ... even though the commentary on UK TV, if you heard that, was going on about the pace not being that fast, it looked damn fast to me.

I take my hat off to those 10,000m guys - awesome athletes.

They should have hung the old bat and her idiot son from the top of one of the chimneys at the opening ceremony.

Now that would have been good for the TV ratings...

Well you got your gold Canada, I hope your happy. I guess trampolines and hockey are all the rage!

Sailing?

Who gives a fuck about sailing...?

He's the greatest Olympic sailor of all time. And he's British.

It's not a great spectator sport, but it was a remarkable achievement.

[Seshmeister]

I think part of the problem is in the interviews during the week I started to suspect he was a bit of a twat.

Your Olympic athlete body match

Jeez, I have the exact same body as a Canadian wrestler...

[Nickdfresh]

LOL I was watching the Womens' Ten Meter diving event yesterday, and I think Tania Cagnotto finished fourth. But the camera kept panning in on her ass after she went into that little warming pool they have after every dive which they didn't do with any other diver...
