Haha the boxing one made me laugh. Cuba bosses that game anyways.

My point about Wiggins, if he was down to Earth winning would make him happy. There he is, being lauded by the masses, and alls he can do is suck in the sour ones the sideburned twit.

Some good action in the rowing, tennis - unlucky Leighton Son, and the moment of the games ; that Spanish rider who stuffed his bike up on the start after an epic 'this is HIS TIME time' build up from the commentator. Gold.

Wiggins outing himself to Lineker last night as a Kopite.

Gutted. Sidey-wearing belter. He's obviously on EPO.

I wrote lid first instead of mate. Lid didn't sound/look right coming from me.

you could combine them - 'maid' or 'lite' bit pointless and makes no sense, but y'know

i cant believe wiggins is a kopite, i think i will choose to ignore this information completely

Hoy is getting on a bit isn't he.

Its good to see in a way, that they are not happy with having to settle for silver

Disgusting in the boxing then. An Azabaijan boxer had a 7 point lead in the final round so his Japanese opponent just turned it around like I've never seen. He pummelled him to pieces but the dirty little sh*t kept falling to the ground to stall. The ref kept telling him to get up and took ages to give him warnings. Should have disqualified him for cheating -- claiming his headguard was off when it wasn't and doing all sorts to stall.

The Japanese guy lost on points but he was the only one trying to win it. Robbery and awful refereeing.

When you are an olympic athlete, how do you get that tired after two and a bit rounds of boxing?
