Gonna miss a lot of it cos of Community Shield. I'd like to have watched the full match. France doing well though in the team events eh? Silver in men's football, gold in men's volleyball, silver or gold in women's handball.

So according to wikipedia this is the lineup for the finals on the last night of athletics (not including women's marathon tomorrow). I haven't looked on olympics.com to give the exact order and times. Men: 800m, 5000m, 4 times 400m relay, high jump Women: 1500m, 100m hurdles, 4 times 400m...

Beauitful how they all stopped for it and the crowd were singing and dancing along. It's what sport is all about.

That France-Germany rivalry.

If they land perfectly on their feet after the routine it counts as a three-pointer.

Congrats France. The big Polish server guy did his best to keep Poland in it in that third set.

The main thing I learned from volleyball today is that outside hitters hate losing points to setters. That's what the commentator said anyway.

Thanks mate. I can be a dick sometimes when in a mood, I am Scottish after all and we can be miserable bastards at times lol. But generally I try to be nice to people if they are nice to me. Put it this way - your English is miles better than my (insert your native language).

While we are on the subject above, Poland refusing to go down here in the volleyball.

Would be more accurate in the above photo if the banana had rotted black.

Always believed women could give blowjobs standing up.

Yeah that is so beautiful to see. You can tell they really respect each other. They both will really have wanted to win but are equally happy for their rival/friend.

Yeah maybe. Messi983 has clarified it for me anyway. I think I heard China talking their own language. I know I sound a total dick saying this as a native English speaker, but English is the universal language really so guess it makes sense that that is the most common language different...

Ah right, fair enough - didn't know. Makes more sense then.

Fair enough. True, the vast majority of them don't even run their own social media accounts. In a general sense though, there does seem to be more of a focus in general on athleticism than football technique and ability in football these days though. It does feel like the game is breeding...

The Polish volleyball coach is talking to his players in English during the time-out. Bit weird.

I didn't mean anything bad by saying that mate. I meant it more of a compliment - that you speak it well even though it isn't your first language. The odd misunderstanding happens even in first language speaking. Don't worry, your English is good.

You can't know that mate. Villa was a better team player than Ronaldo or Ibra, for instance. Now obviously they were more dangerous attackers in general. But the point is sometimes you use a lesser player if he fits into the team well, and Villa and Pedro were perfect in the Barca system (Villa...

Yeah true. That's a really good post by you. I am a bit of a contrarian myself at times (like with Bellingham for example). However, as you say, we have to be wary of being contrary for contrary's sake, and just so we can beat our chests about being 'free thinkers'. I know for me I don't like...

True. That's a fair point. It could mean that is all we are seeing from him. But they're likely doing lots of work with the ball. I am referring more to their own attitude - more interested in showing off abs than showing their ball work. But you replied to me last night about it being for...
