The Olympics 2012

[Jen]

Mephistopheles, I am totally indifferent as to which team was involved!

 

[Mephistopheles]

I don't expect the other teams are, I expect they are saying the same thing we would be if it was the Paris Olympics and a French team had won under these circumstances, I can just imagine the British tabloids as I type...

 

[Jen]

You don't need to imagine, they will have done their worst on the stalls today.

 

[Porceliamone]

Holy shit...Pendleton EXPLODED into that gold. Amazing turn of speed! Yes!

 

[Brogan]

Third in the medal table now

 

[Porceliamone]

Woah! On the BBC now Anna Watkins is pretty hot!!

 

[Brogan]

Incredible from Phelps - yet another gold in his final individual swim in an Olympics.

 

[Brogan]

I notice Andy Murray is wearing wristbands with the Union flag design...I bet that hurts

 

[F1ang-o]

Yes.........Andy is thru

 

[Jos the Boss]

Murray wins!

 

[Johnny Carwash]

A repeat of the Wimbledon mens final in the tennis, hopefully the result will be different this time.

 

[Jos the Boss]

It's a shame I'm a Federer fan!

 

[Johnny Carwash]

Reese Hoffa the American shot putter is an absolute man mountain.

You have to love Bert Le Clos (that crazy South African guy from the swimming who says 'unbelievable' all the time)!

 

[Jos the Boss]

Unbelievable!

 

[teabagyokel]

mjo - I think everyone loves Bert le Clos a little bit. There were some excitable Saffer parents in the quad lightweight sculls yesterday too!

The GB medals are rolling in - unsurprisingly track cycling is at the forefront.

 

[Mephistopheles]

If Murray wins the gold I will donate my left nut to a Chinese restaurant....

 

[Brogan]

Wow!
A dead heat in the women's triathlon.

Edit: The photo finish has given it to Nicola Spirig.

 

[Brogan]

Jessica Ennis is still on course for the Heptathlon gold.
She has just jumped 6.40m in the long jump.

Two events to go.

 

[F1ang-o]

Jess goes even better......6.48m
