That Thai lifter is a woman?!?

She is a man baby, a man!

 

[SDBurton]

Just woke up. Which streams should I be watching?

 

[Brazil]

In a couple of minutes, Brazil x USA starts in Women's Volleyball. It'll be a rematch of the 2008 final.

 

[Soyongdori]

I hate to say this sometimes but I find Men's Gymnastics ultimately more entertaining. I think I like the events more.

How about that GER/BRA Beach Volleyball match? That was a good one...

Anyone planning to watch Judo/Taekwondo?

Taekwondo doesn't start until another week from now on.

 

[LuuKyK]

Brazil vs USA now. Beijing final rendition.

Edit: Welp. Brazil beat me to it. haha

 

[jl4855]

should be a good one!

 

[Sianos]

Taekwondo doesn't start until another week from now on.

Can't wait until then! <3

In what?

 

[numble]

In what?

Volleyball

 

[Napoleonthechimp]

That British fella did quite well in the gymnastics earlier. I'm glad this event wasn't overhyped like the other stuff. Perhaps, there's less pressure as a result.

Only golds matter.

Um... 9 Golds, 9 Silvers, 9 Bronze > 10 Golds. It's a pretty substantial amount of medals...

 

[LuuKyK]

Yeah, women volleyball.

 

[Soyongdori]

Can't wait until then! <3

Yeah, probably one of the most entertaining Olympics sports to watch.

2004 Greece was the best year for Taekwondo.

 

[numble]

Third Japanese messed up what could've been perfect set. Landed on his knees--ouch.

(Gymnastics)

Edit: He's being carried out of the arena. Sucks.

 

[Brinbe]

A lot of these gymnasts are fucking up.

 

[Soyongdori]

Ruskie chicks are hot...

 

[smiggyRT]

The strength on display in the gymnastics is simple mindblowing.

 

[Deadman]

Another 1 arrow shootout in the archery

 

[indigo-cyclops]

Taekwondo doesn't start until another week from now on.

Ah good, I didn't realize that. Haven't looked at the schedule but I did notice it wasn't on yet.

I can see the argument for W Gymnastics but the events themselves for M I find more interesting. It's a close race between the two for me. Oddly enough, I've been to an Alabama/Penn State gymnastics meet years ago, they aren't quite as exciting in-person because of the concurrent events and distance.

 

[Koodo]

Sam Mikulak. *.*

 

[Psychotext]

You know, the BBC have really done themselves proud with their streaming tech for these Olympics. It's real next level stuff.

 

[goober]

Where are you guys watching? The womens IM just finished here

edit: nvm, volleyball just started

 

[Brinbe]

Wow, wtf was that. Just straight-up faulted.

And Li from China wins gold in weightlifting, sets a new OR.

 

[Kobalty]

China's tearing it up in the women's weightlifting god damn!

 

[Deadman]

Larry godfrey (GB) is back on in the archery

 

[Ohwiseone]

I like this change NBC, having both Brazil's and USA Indoor women's volleyball team.

 

[aznpxdd]

Ouch..that poor Japanese dude in gymnastics.

 

[Arnie]

Anything really good on?

Gymnastics is like watching a snail bridge a small fissure in the floor.

 

[Meadows]

how is the final official medal table counted?

total medal number or 3 for G, 2 for S, 1 for B

it should be the latter

@Arnie

watch the gymnastics, we're in for a medal potentially

 

[twofold]

Chinese lifters are insane. Absolutely amazing display of strength. I feel so weak.

 

[Kurtofan]

So how does gymnastics work? There's 5 finals going on at the same time?

 

[Chuckie]

So nobody watching the hockey game? Pretty exciting (for field hockey that is )

 

[John Dunbar]

Did something happen to USA in Gymnastics? I think I saw them getting only 20 something points for one of the stops. That seemed really low.

 

[numble]

Li going for WR.

 

[LTWheels]

Go Larry!

 

[Hoo-doo]

So nobody watching the hockey game? Pretty exciting (for field hockey that is )

We got that shit on lockdown.

Spoiler

Please don't score again, India ;_;

 

[ColossalLazy]

Brasil vs USA is already awesome in the beginning.

 

[Koodo]

Did something happen to USA in Gymnastics? I think I saw them getting only 20 something points for one of the stops. That seemed really low.

BBC commentators said they still have one performance left for that routine (pommel horse, I believe).

 

[Miles X]

Don't think it included one of the team mates scores? Not entirely sure. They're in 6th or 7th though I think atm.

 

[Psychotext]

Li going for WR.

Yeah, deserves a ton of respect for that. She didn't need to do anything.

 

[Kobalty]

weightlifting done over to Greece vs Russia women's beach volleyball, Russia currently even

 

[weekend_warrior]

Why didn't the USA get a point for that?

 

[Wunder]

Why was this Weightlifting highlights video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JjsA6CEp6CI&feature=player_embedded available way before the live version was broadcast? So bizarre TT

 

[Diprosalic]

a swiss footballer tweeted that after losing to the south koreans:

«Je défonce tous les Coréens, allez tous vous brûler, bande de trisos»

glad he got sent home, what an idiot.

 

[Soyongdori]

GB doing great on archery right now.

What did he say?

 

[Wes]

Gymnastics is like watching a snail bridge a small fissure in the floor.

Eh? This is great stuff. The strength of the guys on the rings in particular is out of this world.

 

[TylerD]

Get ya some Fabi! In the face!

 

[weekend_warrior]

These Brazilian women. My word.

 

[Napoleonthechimp]

Larry Godfrey is doing quite well in archery considering the wind.
