[DOBERMAN INC]

USA killing it on Gymnastics.

 

[Wes]

Lost a rider! The American. Breakaway down to 3.

 

[Qazaq]

Is there a a gymnastics live stream anywhere? I can't watch it at 8.

 

[killer_clank]

where are the GB riders?

in the Peleton?

these commentators are shite

there's a couple in the peloton and one in the leading 4.

Leading 3!

 

[Gorillaz]

There is no flow. Everything is either an iso or a 3

Because everyone has to prove they are the shit..god the ego of our team.....

 

[mclem]

It is. I hold my breath every time they take a tight corner - must be tricky as hell in these wet conditions.

More impressed by this in the wet than the guys in the dry. Not that it's the guys' fault, of course!

 

[Meadows]

COME ON GB CYCLISTS

Man, the rain combined with all the punctures/car repairs and camera-work is making this an insanely exciting race.

 

[Pkaz01]

[Wes]

The Russian looks tired.

 

[mclem]

Has NBC been this bad about it in past Olympics?

In '96, I happened to be in the UK for the first week of the Atlanta Olympics and in the US for the second week. The quality of coverage was like night and day, completely. It gave me a new appreciation for the quality of the Beeb. A country *in* the US, and NBC only seemed to cover the events with major US medal hopes; that's not what I expect from an Olympic host broadcaster. On the Beeb I'd watched dozens of events with no direct GBR interest at all.

 

[killer_clank]

COME ON ARMITSTEAD

 

[Regulus Tera]

En la madre. D:

Good play though.

 

[cdyhybrid]

[Ryder]

Brazil vs Belarus is on now.

 

[Kikujiro]

Archery in the rain.

 

[RivalCore]

Absolute quality road race, I'm on the edge on my seat here. Hope the break away can maintain this pace without any accidents.

 

[killer_clank]

Wait wait...GB gonna get their first medal in this hopefully? [Road Race]

Hopefully!

 

[Bo-Locks]

The road race is nuts. There's been as many crashes as there have been attacks.

 

[friskykillface]

Kobe taking over

 

[Regulus Tera]

Herrera and Aquino are beasting.

 

[Gorillaz]

[Meadows]

I went through the same thing when I went to America in 2004 midway through the Athens games. I was annoyed by the broadcasts only covering the sports America was strongly involved in.
