All I ever remember about the olympics is Olga Korbut and Nadia Comaneci the 1972 and 1976 olympics....before Sucky was born. I was going to say the perfection of the Russians, but the latter was Romanian. 1972 was Munich, so sadly remembered more for the terrorist act... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Munich_massacre
I watched some of the France v USA game but which i'd seen the Argie Moroccan game which sounded "entertaining"
Its cool what they've done building some of the stadia around paris landmarks. We never took advantage of ours like that.
well if Paris is anything like most modern Olympics they will disappear after the games and actually 2012 was one of the most successful at having kept quite a number of them in use i'e' the copperbox ,aquatics centre and velodrome and lots of other sports used existing facilities like cricket grounds the only big cock up was the main stadium **** up
When's the boxing start? Probably try and watch a lot of that considering there's talk it'll be dropped after this year.
A classic Fosse funny but it’s a fair point. Would be a shame to lose the boxing when there’s skateboarding and horse dancing.
Boxing is an actual sport though. Would have a huge knock on effect in terms of funding at amateur level.
They aren't supposed to be permanent i dont think. They got one under the tower, gonna have all the cool events there like bmx and break dancing and skateboarding
An attempt at ironic humour - boxing may be on its' way out - break dancing is in for the first time - dungeons and dragons just poetic licence to highlight how daft I think some of these decisions are ...
The rugby sevens is quite good. Much better than middle class **** rugby. Ireland v Fiji on now in fact.
