Rio 2016 Summer Olympics Discussion Thread

[Liam-]

The tiny one amongst giants made me scream

[Novo]

Rose with a great start to the 3rd day he's gone to -8 overall and -2 on the day through 3 holes, hopefully he can go into the last day right in touch

[Novo]

Stenson looking good as well now though

[Novo]

Rose top of the leaderboard!!!!! -10 overall

[Black Dagger]

Murray :clap1:

Absolutely desperate for Del Po to join him. But Nadal is having a stormer as well. Hopefully he's content with his doubles gold though and gifts it x

[Black Dagger]

This is tragic. **** off Rafa, you selfish bastard.

[Braden]

Why do we not have a GB football team? I know it was reprised for London 2012 but we hadn't had one for decades before that.

[Novo]

The Scottish FA and Welsh FA have never been keen on the idea, think the English FA tried to push for one after London but got told to **** off basically

[Denver]

Why do we not have a GB football team? I know it was reprised for London 2012 but we hadn't had one for decades before that.

becasue it isnt possible for a team GB to qualify

[Shaun]

We'd have to have one player at least from Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland and for some reason Wales/Scotland thought they were above it. Because you know, Scotland are doing great.

[Braden]

Oh okay, thanks guys :p

[Novo]

Rose is 6 shots clear of 4th place so there is a really good chance he will get a medal tomorrow

Top 3

Rose -12
Stenson -11
Fraser -9

Considering a lot of " Stars " pulled out this is going to be the best final day the tournament could have asked for with Stenson v Rose

[Shaun]

The bit they showed on BBC1 had Rose having a bit of a nightmare on the 18th so I'm pleased he held on / Stenson was similarly meh.

[Shaun]

Delpo is going to piss away this serve.

Oh well, Murray/Nadal would be a better match than Murray/Delpo anyway.

[Shaun]

really going off the brazilian people as well the way they're cheering a bloody net serve :idc: back to the slums with you

[Ross.]

This tennis match is so intense :worry:

[Ross.]

Not Lucas getting his wish :clap1:

[Shaun]

Delpo is going to piss away this serve.

Oh well, Murray/Nadal would be a better match than Murray/Delpo anyway.

[Black Dagger]

I just died. And cried. I'm too emotional for this ****.

My Del Po overcoming his injuries. **** off Murray, you won Wimbledon x

[Novo]

Puig winning the 1st set over Kerber in the final

[Shaun]

just GIVE UP, ANGE. Let Puerto Rico have their first gold!

[Novo]

Puig does it!!!

[Shaun]

:clap1: finally

[Jack_]

:clap2:

[Jack_]

Our women's hockey team is the top seed going into the quarters, looking good :clap1:

[Shaun]

think that's Puerto Rico, Kosovo, Singapore, Fiji and Vietnam with their first ever golds at this games now :love:

[Babayaro.]

This is my first night watching live. Team GB better deliver!

[EspeonBB]

Puig :clap1: Really unexpected but so deserved

[Babayaro.]

Hudson-Smith :clap1: :clap1:

Great finish!

[Shaun]

get in the bloody athletics thread marc you noob

[Babayaro.]

get in the bloody athletics thread marc you noob

Mess why two seperate threads

[Shaun]

there's more than 2 :worry: this one's for all the smaller sports (hockey, gymnastics, badminton, rugby, golf, etc) / general chat... there's an athletics one, swimming one, cycling one...think that's it actually

[Novo]

Got a confirmed Gold tomorrow and maybe a Gold for Rose, hopefully we hold that 3rd place in the medals table now

[Shaun]

Hopefully gold in the Pommel as well :worry:

[EspeonBB]

Murray is playing today as well so there's another potential gold there (although it will be tough to beat Delpo)

[Black Dagger]

Del Po needs to win that oops x

[Novo]

Rose and Stenson with birdies on the 1st

Rose -13
Stenson -12
Fraser -9
Grillo -7

[Novo]

****!! Stenson with a long range Birdie

[Novo]

And a tough par putt for Rose coming up

[Novo]

Holds it

[Novo]

Yessss a birdie for Rose to take the lead again

[Novo]

Stenson in the bunker on a Par 3 and Rose with a chance for Birdie

[Novo]

Bloody piss off Stenson

[Novo]

Rose takes the lead by 1 again

Rose -15
Stenson -14
Kuchar -11


This is more exciting then Willett v Spieth at the masters

[Novo]

Needs to try and get a couple shots lead heading into the back 9, don't like the thought of Stenson sniffing around with a few holes to go

[Denver]

mess at this gunpoint story

[Jack_]

Only the Olympics would get me watching and enjoying golf for the first time

[Novo]

I'm going to miss the last few holes, gutted

[Novo]

Nooooooooo all square

[Shaun]

Max is dominating the floor here. God I want nory in my mouth.

[Jack_]

Stenson takes the lead :bored:

[Shaun]

He has a medal!!!! 2 Brazilians in 2nd and third atm with two to go!!!!

[lostalex]

I'm so proud of team USA thus far...the whole doping track athletes thing i'm less excited about, but the first week, no doubt i am soooo proud of Team USA. The only thing i'm really upset by is the women's soccer team, but i guess Hope Solo kinda jinxed the team with her stupid Zika paranoia...

[Shaun]

Wow this Japanese guy has had a nightmare. Crowd are cheering his stumbles because they're guaranteed a medal now :joker:

[Shaun]

Max guaranteed silver <3

[Denver]

Max should get gold

[Shaun]

Omg this is a mess. Mikulak is making errors now and the crowd are loving it.

[Black Dagger]

Max should get this surely.

[Shaun]

Matt saying we have gold already lol wait for the scores maybe love

[Shaun]

Omg the crying Brazilians <3 my babies.

[Shaun]

GOLD!!!!!!

[Jack_]

Yaaaasss :clap1:

[Ross.]

Max :love:

[Denver]

I love unexpected golds

[Shaun]

Literally if this doesn't dethrone tom as the face of team GB idk what will. Max is like 800x sexier.

[Denver]

He should hopfully be a double gold medalist tonight

[Ross.]

Yes Tom needs to be deleted

[Firewire]

Max :flutter:

[Black Dagger]

Yeah Tom can bore off. He's not even the face of GB diving anymore. I'm sure he'll go wild for putting just enough effort in to get bronze.

[Firewire]

Tom will be shook when Chris and Jack get honours from the Queen this year

[Shaun]

Tom will be shook when Chris and Jack get honours from the Queen this year

will probably post a youtube video wondering why gays are ignored by the queen or something the ****ing famehungry dickpig

[Ross.]

Helen is getting a honour before all of them

[Firewire]

I'm probably late to the ~party~ but Arthur Mariano has nudes guys

[Jack_]

The Brazillian saluting :love: bless

[Shaun]

Arthur Mariano is honestly the best thing to come out of these games i am in love

[Jack_]

omg could you imagine if we overtook China for a few days <3

[Ross.]

Clare is getting herself all excited

[Shaun]

ok firewire is winning ML 15 for making me aware of these photos / the video if it ever reemerges

[Firewire]

I love how it's mostly females fronting these events on BBC1

I love Ore as well but he's on BBC4 and couldn't care less about Dan Walker :yawn:

[Denver]

Helen is getting a honour before all of them

Helen Wood is being made a dame :amazed:

[Shaun]

-likes Dan Walker and he's a hell of a lot better than gabby pissing logan-

[Ross.]

I like Dan

[Firewire]

I only don't like him because he stole Naga's job as lead presenter on Breakfast

[Firewire]

Although I screamed at the video of him interviewing that girl who was on a hen night

[Firewire]

Oh btw @Shaun I found the video

[Shaun]

I require a link tbh

[Jack_]

Hazel's been the breakout star of these games for me, she's a consummate professional with extensive knowledge of lots of sports. She's always great on the snooker but I've been really impressed :love:

I've enjoyed Ore and Dan too, particularly when he goes down onto the beach and interviews some random people :joker:

[Firewire]

I've always loved Hazel, she was great in London and Glasgow 2014

[Firewire]

I haven't actually watched any of Dan so my post was a bit hasty

[Denver]

I wish they would let someone like the Chuckle Brothers host

[Firewire]

Keep wishing

[Ross.]

I haven't actually watched any of Dan so my post was a bit hasty

Apologise please I was offended

[Firewire]

Sorry Ross :(

[Jack_]

Adam :love:

[Shaun]

I was a bit shaken as well but I've got brazilian dick on my other tab now so it's all good

[Jack_]

Can we have a Becky, Mark and Helen cameo plz

[Firewire]

ML15 in Feb don't forget me

[Ross.]

I was a bit shaken as well but I've got brazilian dick on my other tab now so it's all good

:joker:

[Firewire]

Accept my apology please so I can leave the house and not want to throw myself in front of a bus

[Ross.]

It's accepted

[Firewire]

Duncan King of Scotland Chris Hoy is shook

[Firewire]

Oh I forgot about Andy

[Jack_]

[Ross.]

Siobhan :love:

[Jack_]

763454900646866944

[Shaun]

[Firewire]

Wow another Scottish swimmer I should've watched more of it

[Jack_]

'It just shaves the hole'

It's only 7:13 Clare calm it

[Ross.]

Someone throw a golf ball at Stenson's head

[Black Dagger]

763454900646866944

I hate golf normally though

[Firewire]

[Jack_]

[Ross.]

[Jack_]

[Jack_]

[Braden]

Just read about the US Olympic Swimmers being robbed in Rio, and Ryan Lochte being held at gunpoint. ****.

[Ross.]

*holds*

It's gonna hit me when they don't throw to the pool later :(

:bawling:

[Shaun]

If its tied do they both get gold or do we bc Rose seems to be the first name for some reason

[Shaun]

ha2 @ Stenson

[Jack_]

I never thought I'd be nervous over ****ing golf

[Shaun]

Omg that ****ing idiot.

[Ross.]

Omfg at that guy :joker:

[Black Dagger]

:joker: @ that guy.

[James]

If its tied do they both get gold or do we bc Rose seems to be the first name for some reason

They have a play-off to decide. Extra hole.

[Ross.]

Not that guy trying to rig it

[Jack_]

Did anyone see the woman from earlier who did the same on Justin's shot? What a ****ing mess :laugh2:

[Jack_]

764878501069541378

:joker: :joker: :joker:

[Shaun]

Yes Justin!

[Ross.]

I don't even watch a lot of golf yet I'm hooked :joker:

[Shaun]

omg :flutter: come on Justin!!!!!

[Shaun]

ok surely that's it then

[Denver]

yasss

[Ross.]

What a guy :clap1:

[Jack_]

Amazing :D

[Shaun]

It really does feel like we're winning more medals than we were in London, I'm not sure why (like I know Jess, Greg, the road race/time trials and the eventing are big drops on their London performances but it seems we've more than made up for them with Max, Justin, Chris/Jack, Bryony, etc.)

[Novo]

Yassss

[Novo]

Makes it better because Justin slammed the Olympic withdrawers like Rory, what a guy

[Denver]

Gold and silver for GB :fc:

[Pete.]

Come on Venus girl :fc:

[Shaun]

gold/silver pls :fc:

[Denver]

Max a double Olympic champ

[Ross.]

Max again :clap1:

[Braden]

Well done to the two of them

It must be a bit tense when your team-mate has the medal you want though :laugh:

[Shaun]

Confirmed :clap1: Gold and silver. Amazing.

[Denver]

Gold and Silver

[Shaun]

Could smile Louis :idc:

[Denver]

Max has to win SPOTY

[Denver]

best not be Murray

[Black Dagger]

Max :lovedup:

[Jack_]

We're second in the medal table!

Enjoy it while you can

[Pete.]

We're second in the medal table!

Enjoy it while you can
:o :o

Talent won

[Denver]

4 golds today 2 or 3 more are possible

[Novo]

Splendid Sunday is here fam

[Black Dagger]

4 golds today 2 or 3 more are possible

Just two. Tennis and the confirmed sprint. Although it looks like Scott in the sailing won't be overtaken at this stage.

[Shaun]

Max has to win SPOTY

Nah Mo has got it nailed on even without winning the 5000m, if he wins that as well everyone else might as well not attend.

Think the top three will be Mo, Andy Murray and Gareth Bale. Hoping the Olympics fans can push Max, Laura Trott, Adam Peaty, Kat Grainger or one of the Paralympians into the top three (unless there's a separate prize for the paralympic candidates?)

[Pete.]

4 golds today 2 or 3 more are possible
Aren't we getting another confirmed gold in the cycling

[MB.]

We're doing rather well at the moment aren't we

[Denver]

Aren't we getting another confirmed gold in the cycling

i counted that one

[Denver]

Louis in tears

[Pete.]

Venus won silver and is serving me looks

[Shaun]

gold for Giles Scott! (unless that patchy feed was to tell us he'd fallen off the boat)

[Denver]

14th gold

[Jack_]

N'aw that's the first gold I've not watched live :( I was having such a good track record

[Shaun]

To be fair the event isn't over until Tuesday so you can catch it then :p

[Jack_]

Really? How? :joker: sailing makes no sense to me

[Shaun]

I think they have 10 separate races but he's now picked up so many points from the first (seven? eight?) that he's un-catchable

[Black Dagger]

come on del potro

[Ross.]

come on del potro

delete it

[Jack_]

I think they have 10 separate races but he's now picked up so many points from the first (seven? eight?) that he's un-catchable

Oh I see :laugh: thanks!

[James]

I'm a bit late but well done to Justin Rose. Exciting finish. It's great for golf to have it in the Olympics because they don't often play for their country in the sport.

[Black Dagger]

Ok. Congrats on Gold. Murray x

[Pete.]

Ok. Congrats on Gold. Murray x
Murray always sails through the first set and then struggles on the subsequent ones so Del Potro probably will come back

[Novo]

Get in Murray

[Denver]

Is it just me who wishes they were a athlete when i see them with smiles on their face after winning

[EspeonBB]

Lmao @ Britain being above China on the medal table :joker: Hopefully we can hang onto our wig

Max :clap1: The pommel horse gold was expected but the floor one surprised me

[Novo]

Break this argy rentboy Muzza

[Shaun]

bored of that dickhead just overpowering every shot

i hope he gets injured and goes awol again for this ****ING COME AT ME LUCAS

[Ross.]

I'm nervous

[EspeonBB]

I'm still pretty certain Murray will win, it will be hard for Del Potro to beat him in best of 5 sets

[Shaun]

he's got it now surely :worry: (the 2nd i mean lol)

[Black Dagger]

****ing kill yourself Shaun. I don't mind how. Drowning will do :)

[Ross.]

~taking Shaun's side tbh~

[Headie]

Lowkey here for Del Po winning so someone else has a chance at winning SPOTY this year

[Black Dagger]

~taking Shaun's side tbh~

I don't think I asked :)

[EspeonBB]

I want Delpo to win too. He's been tragically injured for so long and coming back and winning a gold medal would be amazing

[Black Dagger]

I'm not against either in this match :laugh:

It's my perfect final. I just want Del Po happy. But hopefully this means he's over his injuries and can properly compete again. If you asked me last week I'd have taken silver for him.

[EspeonBB]

Lowkey here for Del Po winning so someone else has a chance at winning SPOTY this year

Max deserves SPOTY this year tbh (or Mo)

[Headie]

Max deserves SPOTY this year tbh (or Mo)

For some reason Mo always does poorly in the public vote, I never understand why

[Novo]

Seriously who cares about who wins SPOTY, it's a popularity vote not a vote based on the merits of the Athletics.. not assed one bit about it

[Black Dagger]

**** off you miserable twat.

[Novo]

**** off you miserable twat.

****ing do one you argy rentboy sympathiser, Zara Phillips won one year ffs , it's a ****fest of an award

[Brother Leon]

Argie fans>>>>


****ting all over the London atmosphere.

[EspeonBB]

According to the predicted medal table (which I know has some dodgy predictions but still) Britain were meant to win 18 golds and now we already have 14 (15 once Murray wins) with lots of chances in cycling and sailing still to come :clap1:

[Novo]

The dopey Brazilian fans probably cheering for Del Knobhead not realising that a Gold Medal will give Argentina more Golds then Brazil

[Shaun]

they were booing him against Nadal lol

[Black Dagger]

The dopey Brazilian fans probably cheering for Del Knobhead not realising that a Gold Medal will give Argentina more Golds then Brazil

The amount of terrible people you support and you have a vendetta against the nicest guy on the tour. You're diabolical pal.

[Novo]

The amount of terrible people you support and you have a vendetta against the nicest guy on the tour. You're diabolical pal.

Your supporting him even though we are battling China for 2nd place in the medal table, your a traitorous bastard if ever I saw one

[Black Dagger]

Your supporting him even though we are battling China for 2nd place in the medal table, your a traitorous bastard if ever I saw one

China spunk a load of medals from that terrible table tennis. I'm not delusional.

I'm supporting them both. **** yourself.

[Denver]

Not Lucas supporting with his dick and not his heart

[Novo]

China spunk a load of medals from that terrible table tennis. I'm not delusional.

I'm supporting them both. **** yourself.

You have no faith in us getting 2nd, if you had it your way Muzza would might as well just throw his racket down and walk up to Delpo and say " the match is yours Sir " before bowing down and licking his boots clean

[Shaun]

#DeportLuke

[Denver]

finally a guaranteed medal in boxing

[Black Dagger]

Not Lucas supporting with his dick and not his heart

Del Potro has been my favourite player for years and I am going with my heart, because it's Del Boy's journey that has invested me :)

[Black Dagger]

But no he's knackered now and can't hold his serve. So **** him.

[Shaun]

(plus let's be real if we were going with our dicks we'd support Andy anyway)

[Ross.]

is that Lucas rubbing DelPo down the traitor

[Novo]

Del Potro has been my favourite player for years and I am going with my heart, because it's Del Boy's journey that has invested me :)

Don't give us the journey sob story you Argy Defector

[Black Dagger]

I do want to move to Argentina when I'm older anyway lol. I just can't be arsed learning Spanish so I never will and I'm too family orientated.

[Shaun]

@Josy change his username to _LucàsMiguel_ please

[Black Dagger]

is that Lucas rubbing DelPo down the traitor

I ****ing wish.

[Brother Leon]

The Last Olympics where Murray represents Britain anyway. He will be delighted too, I bet :idc:

[Denver]

(plus let's be real if we were going with our dicks we'd support Andy anyway)

both ugly tbh

[Novo]

Wouldn't see me cheering for Vika if she was against Heather Watson, I'd be team Hev all the way

[Black Dagger]

Wouldn't see me cheering for Vika if she was against Heather Watson, I'd be team Hev all the way

You were supporting Vika in the doubles final over our Laura Jobson and Murray :bored:

[Denver]

Clare has a son? i thought she drank from the fairy cup

[Ross.]

look what you've caused Lucas

[Novo]

Look what you have done now Lucas

[Headie]

Mess @ the football chanting

[Ross.]

Lucas HOW COULD YOU

[Brother Leon]

Mess @ the football chanting

Amazing atmosphere. Great stuff.


Makes Tennis 10x more hype.

[Denver]

i vote for Scotland to leave Britian

[Novo]

These Argy bastards don't know what Decorum is

[EspeonBB]

Mess China have just overtaken us in the medal table too

[Novo]

Oh no

[Novo]

We need this Gold more then ever now to avoid disastrous consequences

[Ross.]

The world is ending

[Shaun]

thanks a lot lucas, we're third now

[EspeonBB]

I'd still favour Murray in a 5th set vs. Del Potro tbh

[Novo]

Where is Raph's weed when you need it

[Novo]

Take 1!!!!

[Novo]

Say it ain't so Bugsy

[Shaun]

it ain't so novo

[Novo]

Yessss

[Shaun]

told you it weren't so

[Novo]

Hold and break and crush Lucas's dreams in the process please fam

[Jack_]

This match is too much

[Shaun]

How is that a Murray challenge? It was called out ffs

[Novo]

The Argy bastards trying to sabotage the match

[Shaun]

This crowd is so ****ing revolting I hope they don't make it out alive

[Ross.]

There's Lucas getting asked to leave

[Denver]

were they shouting "his a asshole"?

[Ross.]

oh Andy

[Black Dagger]

There's Lucas getting asked to leave

I was enjoying myself as well. I'll **** off distract people at badminton instead :bored:
