We should quit athletics and swimming at this level. Let's face it, we're just not cut out for it.

I blame the potatoes.

Colmustard

I should have got a few cans in,,,,

10 to 10,,,,I am going for some cans,,, with Olympic speed.

You would get banned on this website for that comment Jimmy MaGee made yet he can say it on National TV...strange world.

BTW: Not for 1 second do I think he mean it as a racist slur

Even though it was, you mean?

I don't think Nolan will win tonight. He didn't look great in his last bout and might've lost it if there was another round.

Is it not on TV anywhere?

It seems BBC HD and BBC 3 are the same for the Olympics, HD/SD is the only difference... I think anyways.
