Which sports are you looking forwards to?

[andruid]

Keeping most of my attention to the track. Apparently if Kenya contrive to make the final of the 4x400m mens event we could see a David Rudisha v. Usain Bolt. Apart from that my prayer is David Dunford gets a medal in the pool and a boxer, any boxer comes good for kenya.

Athletics, Field Hockey and the Marathon.

 

[morgieb]

Whatever Australia has a chance in.

I adore the table tennis - but they never show anything except highlights - yet show oodles of gymnastics.

My major peeve is gymnastics.

First you compete as a team in all the events.
Then you compete by yourself.
then you compete again by yourself in your favourite events.

You can win a bundle of gold medals if you are good enough.

Should combine the individual and the team event into one comp.

From Spikey's list they quite clearly need to re-assess how many golds they award to each sport - Fencing 10 golds wtf, Weight Lifting and Wrestling too many as well, I mean WWF used to get by with just the Championship, Intercontinental and the Tag Team title

Who was eligible for the intercontinental?

 

[GIMH]

Everybody

Currently held by Christian FTR

 

[Dan]

Anything in which we beat the Poms.

So pretty much everything then. You blokes have never been particularly good at anything other than cricket, to be honest.

 

[vic_orthdox]

Haha, they'll beat us this year in the Olympics.

 

[sledger]

If I were Australian I would be looking forward to watching endless replays of swimming events from many, many moons ago.

 

[Pothas]

Yeah it's a given since they never show anything that they are not winning.

 

[Sylvester18]

Soccer and swimming.

 

[wellAlbidarned]

 

[Burgey]

After just watching an amazing documentary on Usain Bolt called Fastest Man Aluve, I'm stinging to watch the 100m.

Brilliant television that show. Commend it to you.

 

[Scaly piscine]

I'll watch pretty much anything except:

Synchronised swimming
Anything involving horses - it's not ****ing sport if the horse does all the work, get Attenborough to commentate and I might watch it.
Marathons and anything else that goes on for hours where **** all happens, so some sailing too and probably other stuff I can't think of right now.

That guy is just ridiculous. And has the most fitting surname of all time.

 

[sledger]

Where the horse does all the work eh? Right...

You gotta see this doco. It's one of the best sporting docos I've ever seen.

And yeah, he's incredible.
