[LTWheels]

Commentators were saying something about a mechanical failure with the bike. The steering locking.

 

[Miles X]

an omen though...

You were saying? ;-)

 

[dc89]

Wow GB!

Talk about nerves of steel.

 

[Good Job Bob]

No way that Chinese gymnast is 20 years old

It's hard to believe but it's possible.

 

[Farooq]

I expect all us Brits will be watching the cycling.

 

[Wes]

GB only beat the French by 0.032.

 

[linsivvi]

Lol no ones saying that. But china's only up 3 right now. And it's a pretty safe bet that the US is gonna win more golds from here on out.

Swimming is the US's strongest event.

 

[Simplet]

How does the cycling work? Does the losing team get eliminated or what?

The Korean girl won iirc.

1 arrow shootoff for the gold medal. Great top 8 overall.

 

[CrunchinJelly]

Who cares about the medal table... there's sport going on.

 

[schuelma]

Yes, but track and field has a ton of medals coming up and US is very strong there as well.

 

[nny]

Korea won gold, Mexico won silver and bronze.

 

[Hoo-doo]

What is everyone watching?

Track Cycling (NOS-HD) on the TV, Women's gymnastics (BBC stream) on the PC screen.

 

[Wes]

That was just qualifying for the knockouts.

Now we're in knockouts. You have to win in your matchup to advance from now on.

I watched team GB women in the beach volleyball.

Now it's the track cycling.

 

[Kikujiro]

It's that time of the day.

 

[Subitai]

It's hard to believe but it's possible.

He hasn't met many 20 year old Asian women huh?

 

[linsivvi]

Yep. Just dispelling the myth that track and field is their strongest event. Swimming is.

 

[fly high ~ayunite~]

It's hard to believe but it's possible.

Checked and she competed in Beijing so must be!

Feel sorry for these girls having to wear the dumb tight leotards, no surprise they cover up as soon as they're off.

 

[Simplet]

To think that if you add up both Koreas, the Korean total almost ties the USA...

 

[Officerrob]

It's a travesty that some of these girls are competing in the all-around over Wieber, they are just not that good

 

[Diprosalic]

Yes, but track and field has a ton of medals coming up and US is very strong there as well.

is team us stronger than 08? think they "only" won 7 gold in 08.

 

[midonnay]

the announcer had to mention the 3rd silver for Wang hao.....rubbing it in >_>

 

[Officerrob]

Supposed to be much better

 

[Kurtofan]

France with a new Olympic Record in the Men's Team Sprint.

oh god and I missed it because they're showing the gold medal celebration of Emilie Fer.

/gold medalist problems.

 

[fly high ~ayunite~]

I spent the first half of this year in China! They're getting bigger and bigger

 

[Simplet]

Silver medal for a chinese athlete in ping-pong is pretty much equivalent to a kick to the groin

 

[killer_clank]

don't be sad, britain broke it again in 5 minutes

 

[masud]

It's that time of the day.

Sorry your country’s no competing on that level.

 

[numble]

Lol no ones saying that. But china's only up 3 right now. And it's a pretty safe bet that the US is gonna win more golds from here on out.

There are still 4 more diving golds, 2 more table tennis, and 5 badminton, which China usually sweep. 7 more weightlifting too, which China is good in.

 

[Xun]

I only just realised we gained 2 more gold medals (I was out).

Awesome!

 

[Kurtofan]

don't be sad, britain broke it again in 5 minutes

blargh

 

[StealthGoblin]

Do people really give a shit about where countries end up in the overall table?

For me its about individual/team medals.

 

[Kobalty]

Must hurt these girl on the beam when they balance on their crotch !!!

 

[masud]

is team us stronger than 08? think they "only" won 7 gold in 08.

They're supposed to be much better.

 

[BertramCooper]

YES!

Ross and Kessy take first set!

 

[Hunter S.]

If table Tennis is a sport. Why the hell is not pool/billiards or darts a sport?

Also, the Brits showing of the gymnastics is so much more boring than NBC's because it is too objective. I prefer the American centrism in their broadcast. Moving on to beach volleyball.

i think it's interesting. just one more thing to follow and i'm neither american or chinese.

 

[fly high ~ayunite~]

The Japanese gymnast is so cute ^__^

 

[Dai101]

It seems like it's pushed as a huge meta thing in the US.

Lol, what? Table Tennis is clearly a sport.

Yup, it's all on a per-sport basis for me. If my country is competing, I'll cheer for them.
Other than that, I just want to see sports being played at the highest level, couldn't care less what country the athletes are coming from.

 

[Dance Inferno]

YES!

Ross and Kessy take first set!

I'm actually rooting for Spain in this one. Would be a nice upset.

 

[LTWheels]

If its a China GB final, that makes me very nervous.

 

[Nesotenso]

Gonna watch women's individual all around gymnastics
