    That 20k walk must be the funiest sport in olympics...especialy when men do it, it just makes everyone look so gay.

    Wow. Another gold in the velodrome for GB. And another World Record.

    Nearly caught USA on the track. Very impressive.

    He's about 10th, but a good bit behind.

    Watching Brazil v Honduras.

    Never realised how good watching football without commentary is.

    Also Neymar is a cheating little C U N T

    About 1km to go in the 20k race, he just collapsed, eyes glazed over totally.

    9th for Heffernan, good result for him considering the 50k is his better event.

    Have GB won gold in every track cycling event apart from that disqualification? Talk about dominance

    Could have (and probably should have) won both mens road races too

    The three girls who won the gold for Britain in the pursuit come across as some of the nicest, most bubbly and just most normal people you could ever come across. Very refreshing and so pleased for them!

    More or less, they are even subbing Chris Hoy in some of the team sprints, now that is a pool of talent.
