The '2012 London Olympics' Thread

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Love the chariots of fire music playing in the background...

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Marc and Zak are gutted...poor lads.

[Champ]

Horrible watch

[gingerhulk]

Usain is about to take the stage

[Chairman Meow]

Not long now till Bolts 100m heat.

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Hope he beats the yanks but i don't like Bolt for some reason..mind you, all the best 100 metre runners are arrogant/big headed fuckers. Not his best run there...but who knows how much effort he put in.

[Champ]

Bolt looked ragged, G. I've got a teenage son so I like his swagger

 

Anyone any idea when the Men's tennis final is on?

[Champ]

Fantastic race for Adam Gemeli

Fantastic race for Adam Gemeli

 

Sunday...this is the place to be for schedules etc.. BBC Sport - London 2012 Olympics - Full Schedule : Grid View

 

Young Bleasdale doing well in the Pole Vault qualifying.

[Whelan]

Great effort by Gemeli, and that is why Michael Johnson is so good!

[Phoenix]

Gemeli needs to take some steroids like the Jamaican sprinters

[Phoenix]

Talking about dopers Dwain Chambers is in the next run

[Newport]

Asafa Powell should be disqualified. He was quite clearly running over the line to his left.

Thanks for that. That's what I need..a strategic approach!

I plan my day around it C...much to the annoyance of the missus...it's a bugger to get my cooking in around it but i steal the daughters laptop for that.

A convicted steroid user shouldn't be allowed back into the Olympics. What muscles and strength gains have those steroids provided pushing him to a level above what he may of achieved naturally.

Chambers has got nothing on Gatlin who has been caught twice with an Olympic gold sandwiched between his two positive tests.

 

A case of double standards as well. As soon as his ban was over Gatlin was being invited to Diamond League races while Chambers was out in the cold.

 

In a perfect world they'd both be taken round the back of the stadium and shot.

I'm happy with that?

[Guest Pistonbroke]

How many get away with it by only competing when the blood is clean? Makes you wonder how some of them beef themselves up then go for it on the major events. not just 100 metre runners but athletes across the board. I honestly believe some have found enhancing drugs which don't show up.

[kelster]

BTW, Gatlin is now coached by Trevor Graham. The same Trevor Graham who was banned as an athlete for PEDs and then coached a further 8 athletes also banned for drugs and was central to the BALCO thing.

 

Seems like Gatlin doesn't give a fuck about who he is associated with.

[lifetime fan]

Ennis nails the javelin.

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Ennis is unbelievable, i love her.

[Jairzinho]

She's so lovely.

[Hand Shandy]

I'd give her a cuddle.

 

I wonder whether she'll run the 100m hurdles? She might as well give it a go.
