I don't know much about swimming but puberty + the fact that it was a longer race makes such a jump at the olympic games seem not so outlandish.
 
I'm not really feeling the Omnium event. A part of the appeal of cycling events is that it is pretty easy to understand: The fastest wins. This... I have no idea.

she's only 15, of course she's going to get faster/better as she grows up.

people need to stfu about doping when someone does something special.
Or... better then worse as has been shown by the older swimmers.
 
LOL whenever Volkov gets the ball from the Russian volleyball team I can't help but think of the antagonist from No One Lives Forever.

It's pretty much pseudo-Nascar. They need a constant ticker of the standings for this to work.

HOLY SHIT, HONDURAS DOWN TO 10-MEN.
 
If they are limiting the number of events people can compete in in cycling, they should do it across all sports.

If its a maximum of 2/3 in cycling, the same should be true to swimming/running etc.
 
I'm not sure what it is about the Olympics, but it puts me off the host country for some reason. Guess I'm lucky that I'm not a Tennis or Cycling fan.

Or maybe I just think the Germans and Japanese deserve to win more medals. :)
