Daniel Purivs was in the same year as me but at Sacred Heart during High School.

Didn't know that! Same year as me too, Sacred Heart is only about 5 minutes away from mine, didn't they also have Anichebe there too?

got the digits lad?

I have ten digits, don't know what it has to do with the Olympics though.

Yeah Anichebe was there until he started at Everton. All the Everton academy go to Chesterfield for school work from 16 onwards.

Good gutsy performance, but was never at the races for the gold.

Media expectations are daft for that swimming team. They've had swimmers feeling the need to apologise that they haven't medalled. It's nuts.

well at the last turn they said she was in an identical position as when she took Gold, so it's just that the others have got better and stronger than she has.
so she was still in it then, and was coming back at them in the last bit, so it's some 30 meters in between that it went wrong really.
