come on jess ennis!

 

[Jezbollah]

Jessica Ennis starting her Heptathlon campaign now.

 

[Afrikan]

Wow these Ukrane females aint playing around 100meter hurdles.

 

[GroteSmurf]

Me:

"Judo is Judo

Roeien, Yep, Rowing

Badminton is Badminton

Handboogschieten......huh? Archery?"

Handbowshooting

 

[Edmond Dantès]

Jess is up in the Heptathlon.

 

[ChiTownBuffalo]

What happened? Over already? And they are chanting this girl's name?

Disgraceful to the sport. DOn't make her some sort of pioneer for Saudi women's rights.

Oh, did she just give up?

 

[SolidSnakex]

OH MAN.

Judo match between Saudi and PR on right now!

And she's wearing a skully? That doesn't look like a hijab.

How did they let her wear a black belt?

She's not attacking, purely defensive game so far.

By the time that I got my stream to start up the match was already over.

 

[szaromir]

It's the final day of archery today?

 

[killer_clank]

goddam the british shot put guy is huge.

 

[mokeyjoe]

It's always sad when you have to resort to defending unsportsmanlike conduct. It's a completely un-American thing to do. If this guy were American we'd be the first to apologize for and be angry about his behavior representing his country. We don't need losers representing us.

Somehow I think that if this were the Chinese people would be all over how disgraceful it is, even if it were technically within the rules. This is not that different from the badminton scandal.

Just embarrassing.

Not really, if there was an unfair advantage gained there would be, but there wasn't. Just want to see the best athletes win.

Lets go Chernova. 13.3 would be fantastic for you. Get ir done.

 

[Hypnotoad]

Sudden death between Australian and Chinese archer. And there I thought Worth already had this.

Edit: And Dai wins...

 

[Kikujiro]

Shoot off. The Australian choked on the last arrow.

 

[nny]

(Archery)

Oops, lil' choke on the final arrow...shoot-off!

 

[danwarb]

Under pressure.

 

[Koodo]

 

[killer_clank]

holy shit god damn ennis

 

[Jezbollah]

WOW.

JESSICA!!!!!

 

[evilhomer]

goddam the british shot put guy is huge.

The transition of going from the females to that giant ogre of a dude was very startling.

 

[danwarb]

Woooooah. Well done Ennis.

 

[ChiTownBuffalo]

By the time that I got my stream to start up the match was already over.

It as one ippon, and that's it.

Oh, I understand.

She got thrown once, and then submitted.

 

[Edmond Dantès]

Come on Jess!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[nny]

(Archery)

Worth almost had it; two last bad shots and Dai is through!

It's the final day of archery today?

Yes (

 

[Gareth Bale]

Wow! Incredible

 

[Majine]

World Record?

 

[Withnail]

Ennis wow.

 

[Jeff Albertson]

Fucking yes Ennis

 

[kharma45]

World Record?

Yep.

 

[Jamie OD]

God damn!

 

[mclem]

Ennis gets a new WB in the 100m hurdles of the Heptathlon. That's incredible.

 

[Klyka]

Don't mind her, that's just Jessica Ennis breaking a world record.

 

[Jezbollah]

From what I read, World Record for Heptathlon 100m hurdles.

 

[Envelope]

It would be so sad if she didn't get gold now.

 

[-Kees-]

Quickness.

 

[Withnail]

World Record?

For the heptathlon yeah.

 

[Timbuktu]

It was last 50m in 400m of individual medley. She couldn't match most of the other males last 50m, and some of the girls matched Lochte's last 50m too. That stat is such a red herring.

I kinda hope that isn't the stat Lochte will be remembered for from these games now that he hasn't got all those other golds he was aiming for.

 

[mclem]

From what I read, World Record for Heptathlon 100m hurdles.

It's a British Record for the *non*-Heptathlon hurdles! It's a time that would get her into the final of the normal event.

 

[Peru]

Think its the third best time in hurdles this year, should've applied for that event as well.

 

[Sviatoslav]

Yep.

No, world record in hurdles is 0.3 seconds faster. It is the fastest hurdles in a heptathalon though.

 

[Jal]

dat Ennis.

 

[Empty]

ennis absolutely destroyed that race. wow

 

[Jezbollah]

It's a British Record for the *non*-Heptathlon hurdles! It's a time that would get her into the final of the normal event.

That is nuts!!

 

[kharma45]

No, world record in hurdles is 0.3 seconds faster. It is the fastest hurdles in a heptathalon though.

Oh right, didn't realise that was a B not an R!

 

[nny]

(Archery)

Come on 15-old boy!

 

[LTWheels]

Morning Brit-GAF. Go Ennis!

 

[Korey]

Are you saying that Lochte's last 50m was relatively slow?

 

[Juicy Bob]

Go Jess, Go!

Love that the track and field events have finally started.

 

[Jeff Albertson]

Fastest ever time for a gb woman in hurdles though

She should have gone in for hurdles lol

 

[killer_clank]

looks like they could turn the olympic flame up some.

 

[Joel Was Right]

Jess Ennis; have my babies
