    Mavericky Puig

    Fair enough, thanks for the info on him. On Xavi, that speaks to what I always used to say about football: it is a game of synergies and specialists - players being the best at what they do and other team-mates being the best, and that totals into a brilliant team. I don't believe football is...

    High jump shaping into a good competition.

    Norwegian Cristiano Ronaldo cruises the 5000m with a great kick in the last lap.

    Yeah would take them by surprise. How hard is a volleyball btw? I remember punching it at school and feeling like I was gonna break my fingers. These pros must be taught the best way to smash it without hurting themselves.

    Exactly my point too. She'd destroy 99 percent of the world's men (maybe more) but she'd easily lose to the top 1000 male tennis players in the world for certain.

    Mavericky Puig

    Fair enough mate. I agree with your general points about how to rate players, watching them and giving an opinion and debating with others. I can't talk about Puig though - I am not a Barca fan (though I like them) and haven't really watched him play. I wouldn't be able to give a good opinion...

    It was, very exciting and over in 12 seconds. Reminds me of the good old days when I was sowing my wild oats.

    Erling Haaland

    He's an absolute donkey of a footballer but he scores goals. Watching him today was like watching a baby elephant. People don't listen either. They kept accusing Roy Keane of calling him a league 2 player. He said that his all-round game is league 2 level. Huge distinction. This guy is a...

    Another gold for the Americans in women's 100m hurdles. Visser is stunning.

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    Yer, that is just the way it is between men and women. Players at a similar level, the men will always hammer the women. I mean I was a good footballer when younger (still am to a point now) and when i watch women's football i think I could more than match them (in my youth). It's just that men...

    I agree with some of that, not all. But the bold I agree with fully I think.

    Raats misses all three jumps but he gave it a good go so I am not gonna chew him out.

    Tamberi makes his third jump! Superb.

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    The joint gold medalist guy from the high jump in Tokyo, Barsham, just jumped and cleared. He was injured the other day so pleased he's fine as it's a much better competition with him and his Italian mate.

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    Yeah you're right. But sadly the rules can never work that way. But they really do both deserve gold with that minsicule gap over an 800m race.

    It did seem a fast race. The Algerian guy is brilliant but left himself with too much work.

    I would have given it a watch tonight but the downside of the Olympics is all the big sports are on at once and I am watching track and field.

    Yeah I have been waiting for it.

    It looks like it takes immense skill and agility.
