[AstroLad]

[aznpxdd]

[jobber]

its cool telemundo is showing it and you can watch it with the amazing Spanish commentators. Even if you don't understand them the commentary is still ten times better than whatever NBC would have.

 

[AstroLad]

but i want commentators to explain to me that only the keeper can use his hands and how offside works

 

[AstroLad]

haha that was great how much time was added

 

[sportzhead]

WOW at that British sprinter in the women's 4X100 relay. That is one hell of a backside.

 

[Meier]

Barring an amazing run here, China has this one. Dammit Cuba, work towards getting that embargo removed!

 

[Meier]

The number of missed serves by Cuba is shocking.

Idiots...

 

[AstroLad]

woah epic spazout. olympic highlight

 

[mollipen]

I think that lady is a robot, and I think she just had a major glitch in her system.

 

[AstroLad]

looked like she was going to have a seizure

 

[perfectchaos007]

Woo a Comedy token!

 

[jobber]

wtf happened?


edit: Medal Ceremony for soccer on the soccer channel

why are these 2 commentators yapping over it?

 

[maximum360]

Bolt is a machine.

 

[Windu]

Woo a Comedy token!

Well I think its pretty good for a bunch of scrubs.

 

[Buba Big Guns]

van koeverden has to be one of the biggest disappointments of the olympics. fuck kill me now.

 

[Wes]

Absolute bullshit in the taekwondo. The British girl cleary hit the Chinese in the head but she didn't get the points for it and the Chinese girl won.

Bloody outrageous!

:lol I saw that. She got rocked. She's going to lose to the Mexican chick next round anyway.

 

[Wes]

At least in London 2012 all those decisions will swing our way :lol

 

[Peru]

WOMEN's HANDBALL FINAL GO GO

 

[Peru]

Damn our girls are killing the Russians.

 

[jobber]

China with more gold in flatwater

 

[Peru]

GOLD, bitches!

Pure murder. 34-27 even with TWO players sent out the last three minutes! Handball: most underrated sport of the tourney. A consistently tense, nervous energy similar to basketball.

 

[Ghost]

hahaha Taekwando result got overturned, which apparently has never happened before. China rage imminent.

 

[linsivvi]

At least in London 2012 all those decisions will swing our way :lol

You don't need to wait for 4 years. They made a protest and the judges decided to overthrow the decision.

 

[Ash_69]

Drama in the Taekwondo. Justice has been done and the decision in the GB vs China match up has been reversed.

It's crazy that the olympics brings together the worlds best athletes yet in this event seem to have the worlds worst officials. That chinese girl literally got rocked with a heel to the face. :lol

 

[Ghost]

:lol I didnt realise the chinese girl was a bloody national hero...no wonder they haven't repeated the announcement in mandarin.



edit: Now they've been told, :lol

 

[deepbrown]

Annnd...she lost. But horrible conditions to fight in. Chinese supporters wouldn't shut up

 

[Peru]

While Stevenson is out our Norwegian lass Solheim is through to the finals. This could (should) be our best day yet, what with one gold down, gold possibilities in taekwondo, in javelin throw AND in canoe.

 

[Shadow780]

Imagine if they stripped those gymnasts' gold medals.:lol

 

[OpinionatedCyborg]

Taekwondo's reffing has been all over the place. I don't think it's necessarily favouritism; I think it's incompetence.

 

[nny]

Well, the medal ceremony for the 4x100m women is happening now, and I'm happy every time Russia is on the 1st place so that I can hear this amazing anthem. If there's anyone from Russia here, I want to let you know that your anthem kicks ass. Beautiful.

I was watching some matches the other day and the point attribution seemed so random..it might be just my lack of knowledge of the sport, but they really should come up with a different way to judge these fights. Sensitive pads, something.

 

[deepbrown]

And she got the bronze Good for her. Annnd Russia has overtaken team GB

 

[jobber]

Mexican chick >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

 

[jobber]

what the fuck did Cuba do to piss off the judges?

# But striking officials turned that sympathy into something else
# Interestingly Matos had the sympathy of the crowd when the decision to dq him was made
# It is important for us to remember that we cannot always help what happens to us, but we can ALWAYS control how we respond
# That is a heavy price to pay for a momentary outburst
# Sanctions are levied against CUB - permanent exclusion of coach and Matos from all wtf events and all of his records from the Beijing Games are being deleted
# It appears we're going to get some clarity

wtf

 

[Nolan.]

Wow I think Britain made a mistake with their line up the americans are going to win this.


Richards got it right this time!.

 

[nny]

wow, great 4x400m race, with plenty of changes in the lead throughout the race.

 

[Peru]

Pretty massive javelin throw win, first throw over 90m this year. Nice.

 

[Nolan.]

I think it's amazing how right Michael Johnson is consistently. He said it was a mistake to make the 400m champion start the first leg because it gives the other teams something to chase early. Great race though I thought the russian was going to take it, but Sanya really fought hard this time.

Everytime I watch boxing here it just annoys me. This cuban guy has thrown so many punches that have landed and still got about 2 points for them...


Also why are boxers allowed to waste time by hugging the opponent?

 

[legend166]

Are you guys talking about the womens 4x400?

Or am I watching the men on delay?

 

[sprsk]

Go Cuba!!

 

[pollo]

:lol mlb heads: you all should be watching the Cuba-Korea game right now.

It's awesome. Cuba has paid off the home plate ump. I hate Korea, so this is awesome.

That catcher was pissed.

 

[pollo]

That catcher was pissed.

Asians are such bitches with their passive-agressive shit. I would have given it to that home plate ump.

Whatever.

 

[jobber]

Becky Hammon got her medal

screw Team USA and their retarded player selection. Candice Parker over Hammon? Come on.

 

[Forsete]

Tiiiiaaa! :>
