    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    35th and final event in the swimming (outside of the open water events). Women's 100 m medley relay.

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    It takes the shine off it to think lots of them are doping. Some of this stuff is superhuman though and seems too good to be true. Also loads of these swimmers and athletes have sensational bodies that seem like you'd need steroids to achieve. Manadaou is a really big guy, is that achievable...

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    Yeah I was referring to that performance the other night in mentioning it as well. Like you say I hope he's clean. Apparently he had a go at Jack Alexy and Kyle Chalmers in the Chinese media for apparently 'disrespecting' him and China and Chalmers is now public enemy number 1 in China...

    What an amazing race, Pan is a monster.

    This must be the first clay court Olympics in many years, is that right?

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    For fuck sake. I didn't think it would start til half 7 like most other nights. I am a tool lol. I missed a world record too, gutted. Still got the two medley relays. I assume that it started earlier tonight as there is no morning session today.

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    Damn has it started already? I didn't realise, putting it on now. I got caught up watching and reading about indoor volleyball lol. I missed the women's 50m freestyle.

    Even games like Resident Evil and first-person shooters can get that first/third person view right, and have been for decades. Yet they can't in the shooting apparently, lol.

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    McLaughlin-Levrone won her 400m hurdles heat by a mile. It should be between her and last night's hero Femke Bol for the gold. Still semis to come though - the final isn't until Thursday night.

    Xavi Hernández

    I know he didn't do well as Barca coach, but as a player he is the best midfielder I have ever seen (and I remember Matthaus). Just supreme how he dominated the midfield week in week out and everyone who played Barca was forced to admit they were inferior in terms of possession and ball...

    Ahhh right, that's fair enough then. Hopefully he's fitter for Tuesday. He obviously has to run and complete the heat to make the repechage.

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    Was just about to say, what was going on there? Is it maybe a political protest or something? Lol.

    Hans-Dieter Flick

    Yeah, even if the benefits are contested it surely can't hurt to try. What I can say is that my muscles feel better when they're sore and I put ice on them. And I often feel cooler and much more at ease mentally, so I believe there's something in this cryoptherapy thing (even if the mental...

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    Yeah true, I was really speaking tongue in cheek. What I really meant was what you refer to in the last paragraph - it's too short, two weeks every four years doesn't seem enough. Like you say three weeks would allow us to watch more stuff and probably give the athletes more exposure too...

    Interesting debate on cryotherapy. After playing hard at football for three hours on Friday I feel like I need Mr Freeze's suit now.

    Poor girl, that is a real shame given how much work she has likely put into being ready here. Not nice to hear that she's now out of this too.

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    Women's 3000m steeplechase heats pretty good. I wish the Olympics were on 24/7 365. It's class and two weeks isn't enough lol.

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    I believe they've had massive injury time in just about every game. It's been like the World Cup in that respect, where there was a lot of injury time in many games. I am not sure the players appreciate it given they are playing every three days or so.

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    Good stuff mate. I do like the track and field so gonna keep watching it. I like hockey and handball but not watched any at this Olympics so far.

    Summer Olympics Paris - 2024

    That's true It was a very entertaining night tonight anyway, both in the athletics and the swimming. The thing about track and field is I don't get that interested in the throwing events. I like javelin but do they really have to have about four throwing events? Javelin, discus, hammer and...
