Well, other than watching Chinese sportspeople smash WRs for fun... Wibble Send a noteboard - 28/07/2012 11:04:53 PM
...and trying to figure out what performance enhancing programme they are on now :P


Gymnastics is always fun to watch. Cycling normally has a few good moments, though I spent most of the road race scratching my head trying to figure out if Germany and Australia had any tactic other than not letting the UK win :D Shame Cancellara hurt himself, and shame a previous drug cheat won.

Athletics of course, since you hardly see it outside Olympics and World Championships. Lets see which nations with no national anti-doping testing body storm the games *cough*Jamaica*cough*

The big fuss over here doesn't seem to have made much of an impact in the UK? Legolas - 30/07/2012 11:23:47 PM 445 Views
No, I don't think any of the mainstream media has picked up on it snoopcester - 30/07/2012 11:59:27 PM 384 Views
I suppose they don't want to rain on the parade. Legolas - 31/07/2012 06:35:49 PM 466 Views
Indeed, the British press would never want to do that snoopcester - 31/07/2012 07:59:04 PM 585 Views
Well, okay, fair point. Legolas - 31/07/2012 08:58:04 PM 497 Views

Also, in one of the lowest points of journalism in olympic history snoopcester - 31/07/2012 12:06:37 AM 409 Views
I... don't even know how to read that. Legolas - 31/07/2012 06:26:56 PM 659 Views
I'm not completely sure either snoopcester - 31/07/2012 08:02:46 PM 416 Views

Also, this is a good article - about Ruta Meilutyte, Ye Shiwen and child prodigies in sport. Legolas - 31/07/2012 10:04:57 PM 534 Views
I disagree with the conclusion that their careers are finished by having won so young. Stephen - 01/08/2012 10:53:35 AM 454 Views
Yes, it seems to rely on a shakey assumption that people aren't going to want to keep competing snoopcester - 01/08/2012 12:53:32 PM 466 Views
