wow

 

[krYlon]

Shit. Hope he'll be alright.

The coach is speaking on BBC now, said he will be OK. He just needed to sit down rather than stand up.

That should be the British motto of these olympics.

I was a massive England cricket fan in the 90s/early 2000s.

there is nothing you can do to make me stop.

Feel free then, there's lots of juicy targets on the Aussie team

Finals of the men's parallel bars: the second chinese was awesome
It must hurt as hell when they land on their elbow

I think if you want to add new sports, removal will be needed. Continuously adding new sports will make it harder and harder for a city to host the Olympics, and will further dilute the audience for niche sports. The only reason they are adding rugby and golf is because there are 2 empty slots after they've dropped baseball and softball, and these two sports won the vote.

Not that I agree with the ways he suggest events are removed. There's no point in removing individual events from sports like cycling and gymnastics since the venue is already built for that sport. Either drop a whole sport altogether in favor of another or keep things the way they are (or make minor adjustments like they do with cycling).

They need to combine events. Get rid of beach volleyball + football = beach football.

China with a BACKUP PLAN.

Well lets hope that doesn't happen.

 

[Kurita]

Japan - China, where the word "leading" doesn't exist.

 

[Kurtofan]

Well lets hope that doesn't happen.

He's first so far.

 

[fizzelopeguss]

Bolton have as many gold medals as Australia

Cromptons mule, fred dibnah, 2 gold medals....we cannot be stopped.

 

[Steelrain]

He's first so far.

It's not over till it's over.

 

[Koodo]

Nguyen from Germany did pretty good as well. Just a minor step back in the landing.

 

[Sealda]

The first chinese guy, that fell, has the worst q-score in the field. So he was never gonna win anything anyway.

 

[Doomshine]

Someone finally gets more than a one point lead in volleyball. Probably won't last long though.

 

[BobTheBub]

it's just a cheeky bit of competition. France and England have been doing it...well...forever really

Fixed that for ya.

Has anyone tried the official PS360 London 2012 game? Does anyone know if it's any good or just a typical cash-in?

 

[navanman]

Too close to call a winner in the volleyball.

Woot Japanese dude finished behind Hamilton Sabot!

How in the Christ did he get tickets for every day?

Not massively surprising he had a heart attack either. The amount of adrenaline over the course of the Olympics so far must have been insane.

 

[Pkaz01]

damn 15.3 seemed really low

 

[Kurita]

And Japan wins the set ! Fuck yeah !

 

[Diprosalic]
