even the Guardian admits that Conlan (Ireland) versus Oubaali (France) has taken advantage of a "kind" umpiring.
Poor Vastine, once more stolen like in Beijing in 2008. Even his Ukrainian opponent was surprised to be declared winner.
Wonderful British spirit !
yes sure we can trust our dear UK friends ! LOL !

Here is a great post race interview from her.
Although I dont know why they are calling her Sally McClellan, might be an Aussie thing

I didn't know anything about Pearson so she surprised the hell out of me, outrunning the Americans....fast.
And I love the Aussies and their nicknames!

Loved seeing her effort, loved seeing her win, loved seeing her reaction, love her!
It was a classic Olympic moment, just awesome.

Man, I'm going to miss the Olympics! I don't get people who don't watch.
You discover people, stories and root for the underdogs or whomever has a great back story.
For two straight weeks, ts a constantly unfolding drama.
I pity those too cynical or blasé to enjoy and embrace the Olympics.
RIGHT ON MAN!!! (cant bring myself to call you stupid)Quote

Max,
Part of it for me is that it takes me back to a different era - pre-internet, cable even, when people had a shared experienced. we don't get that anymore.
I remember Olga Corbut, Mark Spitz and his red, white and blue speedo, Nadia in 76...and those Leroy Neiman prints we would get at Burger King...(remember those?)
In this day and age, its rare that the world sees the same thing, is moved by the same things on television. We get to experience that again with the Olympics. For two weeks, we share something with the world.
I love it.

The medalboards MKC keeps on posting are of course incorrect. GB is on third place and will end up on third place.

I'm not bitching, Max. I'm just pointing out the fact that you keep on posting incorrect medalboards. That's a fact. Nothing else.

oh boo hoo.... such a travesty on such an important issue.Quote
Stoneage
It's not that, Chris. It's the order of priority. Gold counts first, not the number of medals. That is the recognized way of presenting an Olympic medalboard. It's unnecessary and confusing to have people posting two different types of medal boards (one incorrect and one correct). But since Max insists on posting the wrong one there is nothing more I can do. So, I give up!

It is just stoneage, again, posting about ANYTHING EXCEPT things about Olympic events. I doubt he is even watching, just posting here to complain and/or act like a cop on the beat.
