I still can't get over the HD streaming on the BBC website.

It's glorious.

 

[Edmond Dantès]

As a keen kayaker, Great Britain's domination of the Canoe Slalom is my favourite moment thus far.

 

[Creamium]

Damn, Clijsters out Our medal chances are rapidly dwindling... Only one bronze medal so far

 

[Simplet]

God damn fencing has been depressing these olympics

 

[LTWheels]

Dampney is gracing us with her glorious presence at 10pm tonight, lads.

 

[numble]

Yeah, that one was a surprise and I felt sorry for the guys that came in 3rd. They seemed to take it really badly.

 

[Kikujiro]

Badminton's replays with the camera from above are fantastic.

 

[3Sixty]

Laura Robson playing great when she is not serving.

 

[Ark]

More controversy with cycling according to BBC, flags have not been raised on the podium.

[L1NETT]

Good day so far team GB!

No. They're coming out now.

I just found out about the customizable HUD with all the stats and info about the sport etc.

 

[NervousXtian]

They just played the Ogogo fight here in the States.

He didn't win that.

 

[davidsaurus]

The Czechs mixed double's team little fist bumps are so cheeky, rather annoying

 

[Zaph]

Is today pretty much the end for TeamGB medal chances?

Not being a medal-whore, but I find the events much more interesting when I know that we're at least competitive/in the running.

 

[davidsaurus]

A boxing fight with a questionable outcome...well I never.

Think we have a 100m freestyle swim coming up where we stand a chance (not sure on that) other than that I think that's it

not by a long shot. still tons of rowing, cycling an sailing. rebecca adlington too.

 

[B-Dex]

This men's Polish? volleyball team is all giants. Especially compared to Argentina lol

Fran Hansall. An outside chance at best.

 

[HoodWinked]

[Big-E]

Our ladies are playing Belgium at Hockey at the moment, which we are quite good at.

 

[Empty]

not by a long shot. still tons of rowing, cycling an sailing. rebecca adlington too.

both footballs and mens tennis

believe

ennis in the heptathalon. probably won't do shit on the athletics track other than that though.

 

[Xun]

Laura Robson playing great when she is not serving.

Indeed.

She's as cute as a button though.

I just found out about the customizable HUD with all the stats and info about the sport etc.

It's really awesome, eh?

It's a brilliant player.

 

[inky]

dis Korean fencer... My 4yo niece shrugs off worst injuries on a regular basis

 

[NervousXtian]

A boxing fight with a questionable outcome...well I never.

Boxing is my favorite sport, but damn if it's the dirtiest sport in existence.

You sort of expect it in the pros, but why they can't clean up the Olympics.. its so bad.

When you count double digit lands for a guy, and he gets like 3 points in a round.. it's hard to watch.

 

[Brinbe]

Nice, Serbia-Denmark in Handball

Rematch of the Euro 2012 final

 

[Jal]

The GB target is 8 medals for the athletics.

 

[davidsaurus]

Adlington in the 800m freestyle aswell.

 

[Balehead]

Such a good badminton match, too bad the BBC commentators were total shit. Like listening to two fanboys of the Chinese player gush about him and ignoring the opponent. "It's not a question of if he's going to win, but how?". Dude got pushed into third set and still had a hard time winning the game and only in the end the commentators properly woke up.

 

[Nevasleep]

It was great earlier, everybody stopped by the TVs in ASDA supermarket to watch the GB cycling WR.

 

[caramac]

.

 

[kharma45]

Adlington in the 800m freestyle aswell.

What time is she on at?

 

[LizardKing]

afaik there's a special high speed camera for the judges.

Yeah, people need to stop assuming the blurry shots they showed on replay were what the judges were using to make their decision. You couldn't really tell who was in front with what they showed on the public feed, with the blur and bad camera angles. The judges might be looking at much better images.

There's more rowing and cycling coming up, also good chances in equestrian and sailing. We're the best country in the world at riding around on stuff

 

[davidsaurus]

What time is she on at?

Friday Night.

 

[D_prOdigy]

[Wes]

Adlington in the 800m freestyle aswell.

The final for that is tomorrow night. Very hyped.

 

[masud]

Lmao at the (female) tennis commentator in mixed doubles. "Hit it to the chick."

 

[Miles X]

The GB target is 8 medals for the athletics.

4 in Beijing.


In terms of the cycling, in Beijing we had loads of silver and golds in the same race, hence why we got 14 medals there. This time they've limited it to one nation per event, so we're only expect 6 - 10 medals. How rubbish! (talking about velodrome cycling only)

 

[Brazil]

The Fencing officials are assholes, geez.

 

[kharma45]

Friday Night.

D'oh, I thought she was tonight.

thanks!

 

[Timbuktu]

Still not sure how we got 19 golds in Beijing

 

[McNei1y]

Lmao at the (female) tennis commentator in mixed doubles. "Hit it to the chick."

"Made the biggest mistake by hitting it to the male player too much"
