You pay for them too Preference is irrelevant I agree I actually respect these people more than overpaid footballers etc to a degree, however they're mainly all little rich kids yet all I'm hearing is about what they've sacrificed!
That's a shame. We could have entered Pardew and MacClaren in the synchronised mugging and walked it!
Im not so sure, France would have a strong team in Sissoko and Obertron. Marveaux was a contender for their team as well but he had injured his leg so wasn't even able to walk it.
I reckon they should introduce doing laps into the rowing like in swimming. Those 8 seat boats having turn around at the end, bumping into each other would provide far more entertainment.
Two great pictures from Rio in the last few days, the first was the lifeguard sitting behind Michael Phelps the second was the female beach volleyball (of all sports) player from Egypt who was wearing a sporting hijab.....glad to see that the stupidity of religious wear extends to women's sport with some muslim countries.
One of the group women's rugby sevens games had a funny moment where the ball was kicked down downfield and the receiving player jumped up to catch the ball and it just stotted off her face. The 4 or 5 replays confirmed the incident was funny as ****.
