2008 Olympic Games

[Heald]

Team GB has just blitzed into 3rd place with 11 golds and 23 in total. Considering the absolute minuscule size of our population against the likes of the USA and China, when you normalise the stats, that shows that GB is doing incredibly well. So much for all that nay-saying that Britain can't win anything any more.

I just hope we beat Australia, since apparently that's our goal for the Olympics and there is some bet between the Aussie and Brit Sports Ministers.

Hmm Great Britain should I think beat Australia. Since you have an absolutely awesome track cycling team that looks set to demolish and take pretty much most of the golds and pick up other medals as well. You guys are looking good in yaching as well so besides your shitty Marathon runner who is a bitch, you look good.

I've been wondering for awhile whether people will keep watching the Olympics now that Phelps has won his eight; that's undoubtedly the high point of the Games for the U.S., after all. Apparently others are wondering the same thing.


EDIT: In what may be the moment of the Olympics, Bob Costas just advocated drug use. ^_^;;
