It may have been bullshit, but not for that reason.The women's 1500m was the biggest pile of bullshit I've ever seen.
ALL of the competitors could have won gold on their qualifying times if they actually put the effort into it.
This is still pretty fuckin epic. Greatest Generation ftwGod, NBC fucking sucks. I turned on your shitty ass station to watch sports, not western WWII propaganda.
And I wish I hadn't read this postFuck, I can't believe USA Women's Volleyball lost to Brazil. WTF happened?

Ugh, watching Canada lose the bronze in that fashion was terrible... seeing the faces of the some of the runners made me want to cry. That is a dream taken from you. That sucked to watch, so I couldn't even begin to imagine what they felt then. Regardless, they did an amazing job though. Proud of them!
The judges made the right call of it being a DQ; can't argue that, but they really fucked up in naming Canada the bronze before they were entirely sure.
It's kind of amazing that, had everything gone as planned, GB could have had 2 or 3 more golds in the cycling. Credit to British Cycling.
It's kind of the complete opposite to our swimming team, which absolutely flopped.

They were planning on showing the entire volleyball match today, but since we lost they are relegated to showing shit from the history channel. At least preseason football is on!

None of the listings show the Gold Medal match for Women's Volleyball but NBC Sports. On Wednesday.They were planning on showing the entire volleyball match today, but since we lost they are relegated to showing shit from the history channel. At least preseason football is on!

That's really unacceptable. My sister was trying to find that game all day. Now I have to tell her they're not showing it because... NBC sucks!?They were planning on showing the entire volleyball match today, but since we lost they are relegated to showing shit from the history channel. At least preseason football is on!
I've seen this comment a lot. Was there are lot of expectation for GB in the pool? I don't think it's been very well represented in the past. Were there a lot of people that performed under their personal bests, etc?

Yeah, they lost. I think we can handle seeing USA miss out on at least 1 gold. Jesus... that's what makes a good game, right? Instead I'm treated to a hour long Brokaw documentary. WTF?! Id rather watch ANY sport over this movie.They took a gamble that the USA would win. Expect diving to get a lot of coverage in tonights broadcast. maybe even the entire broadcast will be shown. NBC is sooooo predictable and it pisses me off. Can't the BBC come over to the states please?

Wonderful question.why exactly is nbc showing a WW2 documentary?
Wasn't really a good game, Brazil steamrolled the US after the first set.Yeah, they lost. I think we can handle seeing USA miss out on at least 1 gold. Jesus... that's what makes a good game, right?

That being said, ... what a mistake it was of Japan's to attack Pearl Harbor... tsk... tsk...tsk.
Id like to have seen it... one way or the other. Y'know?Wasn't really a good game, Brazil steamrolled the US after the first set.
Yeah, my uncle said that when he called (we have relatives over, so you could imagine all the relating, bacchanal, and back and forth). But nothing could stop them from partying or setting another holiday.The Port Of Spain traffic is probably due to the heavy rains we had today. There was some pretty bad flooding earlier in the day. Of course that ain't gonna stop Trinis from partying.
I think Daley should get a gold medal for his effort. When everyone only has 6 dives he did it 7 times! I am sure the sum of his 7 dives should be a gold medal.
Hey, his re-dive was in the rules and thus he was absolutely right to appeal for another go.
Congrats on the guy for getting bronze.
I can't stand the kid, but at the end of the day there was flash photography when he took his first dive. I'd have pointed the fuckers out and let the crowd deal with them.
God, it looks like their heads are so close to the platform. I remember being afraid of hitting my head doing backflips off my uncle's diving board.
Fresh off a World Cup victory hopefully.We'll be there again in 4 years

Tomorrow would have been amazing with Paula Radcliffe owning the doubters with a marathon win. Feel so bad for her, such a great athlete, just injuries destroyed her Olympics over and over. Then the media treats her like shit.
Yes.i don't like what the olympics stand for but i enjoy watching them, am i a hypocrite?
