Bolt win in 9.64 seconds a new olympic record
[editline]5th August 2012[/editline]
been rounded down to 9.63
I was expecting it to be slightly quicker, perhaps sub 9.55.
If he had a better start then I bet he'd get down to 9.50-9.60 again.

Other than the rubbish sound effects, most of those are actually not that bad, not great by a long shot but not awful either.
Anybody see the huggie hug love time in boxing today? It's pretty much the fencing incident all over again. I guy won a heavyweight match against Cuba because he kept holding and locking the guys arm 70% of the time.

not bad?
seriously I was expecting them to get maybe 5 or 6 gold medals.
What bugs me about Usain is that he always lets off towards the end of the 100m, and he always looks around to see his competitors. I'm betting he could pull off a crazy time if he fully focused on finishing strong.
Belgium fan just swore live on BBC at the sailing :v:
I like Usain Bolt's fleece he wore before taking to the track, I don't care that it's Jamaican, I want it
Usain Bolt sure is a character.
Jump off in Show Jumping for GB vs Netherlands
Another gold for GB in cycling.
Goddamn, that was an awesome watch. Elimination in the Omnium.
The fuck is going on with the women's pole vault?
Christine Sinclair is the Canadian Women's Soccer Team.
i've never been so into football
[editline]6th August 2012[/editline]
if they wouldn't give so many fucking free kicks they would have it all wrapped up
[editline]6th August 2012[/editline]
the ref is also awful at calling shit
Extra time between U.S. and Canada.
All we need is for Sinclair to score at least 3 more and we might be able to squeeze out a win.
I've never been more into football than right now. Let's go USA.
The only similar time I've felt somewhat like this is when Landon Donovan scored against Algeria in injury time at the 2010 World Cup.
The fuck, why did the American win at Woman's pole vault? She didn't even attempt two of the jumps, the Cuban jumped all of them AND had less attempts.
Fucking bullshit rules there.
well we're boned for free kicks. fucking awesome game though
im early today!

Are you sure this is correct? I believe the Netherlands has 4 gold Medals.
[QUOTE=Parakon;37110638]Still wasn't expecting such a good game, Sinclair's a beast[/QUOTE]
Just give us an offensive line of Sinclairs and we would've had the win.
Now I can watch Americans pretend to care about women's soccer for the next couple of hours.
