I was riding a horse when it's leg broke, everyone knows the outcome of such an injury so i did my duty and shot it.















Everyone else on the carousel went nuts :rofl:
 
For the next 2 weeks im going to enjoy working nights watching all the sports. That swimming last night was sensational!
 
Disappointing for the gymnasts especially Louis Smith on the pommel horse. Was it nerves (understandably) one of those things or perhaps too much time in media spotlight. Hopefully the girls can do better later
 
Solo Synchronised Swimming ... What's that all about?

Assuming that Sport is for all - Has anyone ever tried it be it at the local pool or your own bath, did the stretching and generally limbered up before pulling on those Speedo's?
 
Hickory. That's the funniest thing. Solo synchronized swimming 😂. Someone needs to have a word. There can't be a more Mickey Mouse sport. It just pips rhythmic gymnastics. Still laughing now.

I swear that it was mentioned on Five Live!

I'm driving along minding my own business when they mentioned it but my phone went so I didn't hear all the chit chat, whatever next?

Where's Val's machine gun?

It's not in the Olympics - it used to be 20 years ago and it was one of five sports that they were talking about that are no longer in - along with - baseball ,tug o war , obstacle swimming race and can't remember the last one
 
I watched some of the women's 7's last night before I fell asleep in the hotel, wow those Canadian girls were pretty physical, unpicked England at times and punished silly errors.

You of course mean team GB but like the men's 7's it's heavily weighted to the coaches favourites who are from an out of form team. But hey, one nation eh :rolleyes:
