OT: 2016 Rio Olympics

[Gronk]

Not sure if any of you merkins saw the Diamond League in London on the weekend.

Usain Bolt ran a sub 20 seconds for 200m.

Mo Farah ran sub 13m for 5000m

Kendra Harrison ran a new WR for 110m hurdles and she missed out on Team USA last month.

Athletes had their last hit out before the games which starts in 2 weeks.

Opening Ceremony is on 6am 6 August, 2016.

Rio is 10 hours behind us, so basically anything that is in the morning over there is in the night here. Anything in the night there is in the morning.

That's shit from Mo Farah, you reckon he could have ran at least half the race

 

[jk13]

Pffft the Russians knocked hours off those times

 

[Bazal]

That's shit from Mo Farah, you reckon he could have ran at least half the race

That's why JT dropped him to reserve grade tbh.

 

[ash411]

Did you see Bolt jog it in at the end, that guy's a freak...

 

[T.S Quint]

So the Russkies are allowed to compete now.

Nothing to see here.....

 

[Wicked Witch Of The West]

I'm only interested in the 100m broomstick hurdles....

I'm only interested in the 100m broomstick hurdles....

The nerds have already had their broom stick world cup.

 

[Gary Gutful]

F**ken pathetic.

 

[Gary Gutful]

So here's one for those brave enough to lay their c**k n' balls on the line. If you think Bolt will win the 100m, what time do you think he will do it in?

I'm going to suggest he will win in a time of 9.73.

Closest to the actual time wins a frozen coke.

 

[strider]

9.74

 

[Gronk]

Bolt will win but he just does enough to win. If some merkin pushes him, he might get below 9.8. Also depends on how that hammy handles RIo.

 

[Gronk]

9.81

 

[strider]

How much longer do you think he has in his career? ... surely at some point he's gonna go, f**k it i'm going the whole way this time

 

[Gronk]

He said that it's his last Olympics.

[Snoochies]

What channel they on this year? Are we just going to get a repeat of the swimming over and over again?

 

[Chipmunk]

Rio is 10 hours behind us, so basically anything that is in the morning over there is in the night here. Anything in the night there is in the morning.

I think you'll find there more than 10 hours behind us. More like 13

 

[Chipmunk]

The 'How Fast is The Merkin Going to Go?' Challenge

Gary 9.73
Strider 9.74
Gronk 9.81

I don't think he will run much faster than 9.90

Only on Channel 7 and it's other two channels. Maybe streaming too
