Germany got the silver.
The difficulty of the routine was lower than all the medalists' difficulty.
Well grats to them!

dat podium. 2 brothers!
That has to be the quietest medal ceremony so far, no singing at all
Just combine boxing/wrestling/judo/taekwondo and make it MMA. Insanely more popular and 3 slots for new sports.
If he worked at any of the major sponsor companies that is how.

I never understand why the Bbc show the same thing on Bbc 1 as they do on the interactive channel, why not show something else?

I don't understand the dressage.
How do you train a horse to ponce around? Why would you want to train a horse to ponce around?

yeah it's really hard to cheer on too, i mean what are we supposed to say? 'WHAT A GALOP!?!? Come on boy nail the piaffe?'
sounds ridiculous
lot's of training and good will, or torture (elektro shocks, hitting the horse, pulling its head back etc.)

Its Crufts for horses basically - and think this used to be on TV every week I hope BBC doesn't think we want this every week.
Rich people and tradition I guess.

BBC1 is deliberately focussed on coverage of GB interest, I believe. If there's some live sport that's of GB interest it makes sense to show that bit on BBC1. If 301 is already showing it, then, should 301 stop showing what *they've* been covering? I can understand why 301 would want to keep the consistency going, even if BBC1 have moved in sync with them for a bit.
its opened up a whole new world!
Men's or women's competition?

Did anyone else hear the dubstep remix of Chariots of Fire? Is nothing safe from Dubstep?
The Aussies have choked away a lot of medals but most of them have just not been good enough.
On the multiple medals in swimming thing:
-I think there is just enough differentiation between the strokes distances where most teams wouldn't have certain swimmers taking on huge programs like Phelps( basically if you can become elite in freestyle and another stroke over 200m you can enter the 100m and 200m(for both strokes), 100m relays, 200m relay, medley relay and individual medley.
-I would like to see some type of medley events in the athletics though
Hurdling, walking(during this time the hurdles can be removed), steeplechase and sprinting may be one of the funniest things you'll see.
Also why not let the walkers do short events, like the 100m walk. I would watch that.
For the field events have cumulative team jumps and throws.

I do not get it how they put basseball out and keep dressage since the firts one is more universally played.
Just curious, how do you know how popular Dressage is? I have absolutely no idea.
