    No.

    Michael Corruth won gold 20 years ago tomorrow.

    Michelle Smith got a bunch of them in Atlanta and Cian O'Connor got one in Athens

    If blaming the Brits was an Olympic sport, Ireland would easily win gold in that.

    It is called the Commonwealth games...used to be called the Empire games but it was rebranded because it brought up too many bad memories of all the hundreds and millions of people you killed<ok>

    Close. It was actually rebranded because we've all moved on. Well, nearly all.

    Dunno about that. This thread was about Olympic medals. Kenya currently have 5, including 1 gold in the 3000m Men's Steeplechase.
