The Olympic Games Rio-2016 Thread

Can't do it...not interested unless you have GB on your chest. May seem unsporting, but I can't raise any interest in foreigers...unless they have a good back story that I can empathise with.

 

Brownlees one and two in triathlon.

 

Amazing brothers

 

Presumably Lochte was doing an insurance scam....puts a cheap price on his honour.

 

Coe was one of my sporting heroes when I was a boy. I tend to switch away when I see him now

 

Alistair Brownlee should be put through an x-ray machine.

He is Steve Austin...

 

Brownlee walks home for Gold and Brownlee gets Silver. Well done boys!

 

Looks a tad warm down by the Copacabana!

 

Terrific one and two in the triathlon. Pleased that Jonathan got a silver...lost it in London due to a mistake. Well done, lads.

 

brining back fond memories of the Neville bros...

 

Gold in womens 470 class finally confirmed.

 

First ever bronze medal in badminton men's doubles!

 

Badminton was/is dominated by Asian countries. We used to turn up with decent county players and lose badly to elite athletes. Players now taking it more seriously....once again due to funding.

 

Our strongest rider crashed in the BMX, looks pretty disoriented. Not sure if he'll be participating in run 2 or 3.

It's the "Phillips (GB) competes" milestone thing on the player.

Yeah, he's dropped out. Wonder if he's concussed?

 

Adams through to gold medal match in women's fly.

 

BMX racing is insane.

 

Jade Jones through to semis in taekwondo.

 

Jade Jones into the final! Guaranteed at least a silver!!!
