Zara Dampney says otherwise.

I concur.

Time for Team GB in the hockey. I'll give this a watch.

 

[criesofthepast]

unlike larger nations we dont have the ability to have both good looking and talented sportspeople, we must take what we can get

Her teammate was smoking, though.

Too bad for Canada. Shortest team in the competition. Was a good match.

 

[CrunchinJelly]

Hard to get excited by water polo.

 

[Mr Cola]

OM FUCKING GOD BARRY DAVIES IS COMMENTING THE HOCKEY

 

[ghostmind]

Cutlasses for 2016. Last person standing.

 

[oc]

Yeah, that was brilliant.

yeah, it was. also the fact that she got FIVE 10's in a row. amazing!

 

[Salsa]

edit:nvm

 

[davidsaurus]

Tsonga a set down in the tennis, surprising.

 

[Mr Cola]

The hockey pitch is going to cause seizures

 

[Edmond Dantès]

Come on Rebecca, that gold is yours.

 

[LTWheels]

You would think we would be good at water polo given our upper class chaps.

 

[Majine]

Why are the two fencers wearing different masks?

 

[Big-E]

Am I the only one who liked foil more than the sabre? Foil seemed more tense, Sabre seems to be too many close touches.

 

[Salsa]

first time Uruguay loses a football match in the history of the olympics. Bummed.

 

[Yoshichan]

1 ½ more hours until Sweden wins its first gold medal

Fear us

Now

Bingo.

Great crowd for the beach volleyball as well, the atmosphere was incredible.

 

[ezrarh]

sometimes we get lucky, please never look at our swimmers

At least your field hockey team looks good from what the camera man has shown.

1 ½ more hours until Sweden wins its first gold medal

Fear us

Now

Fear the swedish media hype.

Does anyone know if the Olympic rules for Beach Volleyball are different to regular rules? I thought you had to be at 20 points with a 2 point lead to win a set? GBR just won with 15 points?

Dont raise any questions, Britain won fair and square on neutral ground in the most neutral olympics held

Don't say that.

Tie break sets go up to 15 (with the 2 point lead).

Last set it's always 15 points as far as I know, it's the same for indoor volleyball

No it isn't.

Edit: No, actually it is. Don't know what I was thinking.

Why are the two fencers wearing different masks?

Maybe so the Russian guy can yell more effectively out of his.

 

[Mr Cola]

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

 

[Meadows]

I just bought tickets!

Going to Spain v Morocco, 1st August, Group D.

 

[KennyLinder]

Ah OK, cool

Nice to see us win something anyway, even if its a non-medal game!

Bring on the swimming at 7.30!

 

[Brinbe]

Nice crowd for Field Hockey... sad that we don't even have a CDN team repping us at these games. You'd think we'd be half-decent at it.

 

[Yoshichan]

Hat

Don't say that.

for what?

 

[Brazil]

for what?

Best choke.

 

[Juicy Bob]

Does anyone know when and why 'Seven Nation Army' became this super popular tune to play in sport? I hear it everywhere.

 

[MasterShotgun]

Russia get a bronze in fencing.

I think I'm changing my mind on Sabre. It's too quick for me. I respect it, but I guess I prefer more defensive styles

 

[Brinbe]

Gold medal match in Sabre is on now!

 

[Jamie OD]

The presentation for fencing has been top class. Very entertaining.

 

[owlbeak]

Hope this Italian loses!

 

[Plasmid]

HERE WE GO.

Go italy!

 

[mingus]

Hope this Italian loses!

if only just to see his reaction hahha

Cause it's way generic, easy to clap/chant to and is well known?

 

[Battersea Power Station]

Why are the two fencers wearing different masks?

Personal preference. The clear plexiglass one used to be required but then there were some safety concerns so they made them optional.

 

[Atrophis]

Fencing is so boss. Walking out to Kashmir. Lets go Italy.

 

[LTWheels]

Let's go Italy!

 

[Majine]

Land Hockey seems like a bigger version of Floorball. Seems so bizarre.

 

[CrunchinJelly]

I just bought tickets!

Going to Spain v Morocco, 1st August, Group D.

I was just looking now... everything I like the look of is super expensive.

Damn you, Coe!

 

[owlbeak]

if only just to see his reaction hahha

Exactly!

 

[LTWheels]

The domination.

Where are you from that Hockey is so bizarre? In the UK it's super popular, and this "Floorball" seems weird as shit.
