@crucial I saw a thing with Venus' coach on TV, he was confident he should take the Bronze, reckoned they were good enough for gold, but just didnt happen.

Ok I think I'm invested in this Olympics now.
Are we going to win any more medals today??
Trampoline and tennis the other medal events for us today.
Maybe a bronze in the tennis?In a swimming final soon too.
Not a favorite though, I'm guessing.
Forgot that one.

The cox in the men's 8 is a woman, the cox in the women's 8 is a man. What gives?

As someone who rowed at school (and that was my ceiling),I'm genuinely thrilled to see them win gold in the preeminent event. It's an astounding accomplishment for such a small nation.

Adults look fucking ridiculous on a BMX
The police should be taking a good look at them. BMX is for kids. Adults have MTBs.
