Ouch. I really hope that doesn't happen to us in 2012! But we always win a couple in sports like rowing and sailing. Anything where you're sitting down, we're sorted.
Though, it is slightly depressing that if Michael Phelps gets his 8 gold medals (which he probably will), he'll have as many medals (gold, silver and bronze) as the UK have in every sport combined. __________________

I've stopped watching the Olympics cause I think Channel 7's coverage in Australia is ATROCIOUS!!
I'm sick - I'm home alone this weekend - there is NO food in the house... I am in NO mood to go to the shops - buy food - or the energy to cook anything... I KNOW i'm sick... but I think its gotta be takeaway tonight. And I'm loosing faith in one of my fandoms which REALLY upsets me |

Awww, I hate it when fandom goes wonky and makes you re-assess your faith in it
Hope you feel better soon my love, being sick when you're home alone is no fun at all. Hmmm, Saturdays just aren't the same anymore without any Who. __________________

Saturdays are okay now, because now that the football season has started I've got that to distract me, it's more stressful than DW though, well it comes with being a Wolves supporter.

Nine? that's pretty cool. I wonder why it is that I support Team GB at the olympics so much more than I do any of them in other sports.

The Olympics is the Big Event isn't it, everyone takes a bit of an interest even if they don't usually like sports. I'm loving all the athletics at the moment. I grew up watching them with my Dad, and helping out at the athletics meets he used to referee at. The men's 100m final was IMMENSE.
And this is pretty much the only time you'll ever catch me gushing over sports so don't get used to it!! __________________

Oh my God, I know. It really was incredible. The Brazillian who won was really great. I'm so jealous! Also, loved how the commentators were falling all over themselves with squee- it was hilarious. The athletics equivalent of fanboys.

Really all lthe clips I've seen about the winners have been incredible, I like that the olympics that they are the very best at what they do, but it's so much more classy than other sporting competitions, imo.

Yes! The clip of Michael Johnson squeeing like a little fanboy was so hilarious. "OH MY GOD DID YOU SEE THAT?!" Still not as hilarious as Ian Wright when Shaun Wright Philips scored for England though. He was literally jumping up and down like a mad thing __________________

Yeah, the Jamaican. I guess I was too busy listening to the commentary to know which country the runner was from!
I have no idea about that moment- I don't follow football, but if it's more fanboyish than the one I saw today, it's pretty much off the scale. __________________

Oh it really was! I tried finding a clip of it but my search skills fail me tonight.
The fact that the Jamaican's strip is yellow this year probably doesn't help. I don't like that strip at all. Apparently my face was priceless when Bolt crossed the line. I know I definitely screamed. I'd been fangirling him massively after the heats yesterday so I was pleased he was with such style. __________________
