Team GB my arse. It's all about winning.
I was under the impression a gold was a win

Yes we won, but what about the poor bloke in the 'team' who leads for three quarters of the race and then has to drop back to let a 'team member' win?!

If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits 88 miles per hour, you're gonna see some serious shit...

i don't think it was quite like that sippo, the two brothers are very strong runners, i don't think the other bloke is as strong as them, if he thought he was capable he'd have gone with them once the running started to try to get a 1,2,3

It's called team tactics. Much like wiggo doing the work to try and get cavendish into the sprint for gold.

Complete carnage in the 110m hurdles, we don't normally have this many fallers do we? It's like the Grand National this*
* rumours of the Chinese athlete being shot are unconfirmed at this stage.
Not until he gets home I fear...

Now - which is the most boring to watch.
Yesterday's sailing or the dressage that's on now?

At least sailing is a proper sport though

Perhaps the dressage should be done using Wadworth's dray horses

Canoe Slalom stole the show for me.

Probably the volleyball, or maybe the handball. Looking forward to the cycling that is on in a bit, potential for a few more medals.

Sprint Cycling probably, although I've really enjoyed the Canoe Slalom and Handball too.

Handball for me, really enjoyed it. The athletics has been good fun, I would never watch it outside of the olympics though
