Yes that's Covell's daughter and he's the coach apparently

Poor thing

I like the traditional way of walking into the stadium..

Nothing stopping them showcasing their city..

Also Paris can get f**ked they can't even clean up the water to host the triathlon...

What is it anyway. Apparently high level bacteria levels...is it general pollution or sewage?

 

[Sensei Cobra]

The heavy metal gojira thing was the highlight for me so far

Good hockey match between RSA v Aus girls atm. I only wish they could bash each other like in ice hockey.

Probably a bit of both..

They have spent over a billion dollars to fix the water

Obviously didn't work. It's a shame really, I've enjoyed the games so far. Then again, I've got nothing better to do.
I mean I'm not going to watch replays of my tigers games now will I.

Aussie women's rugby 7s team in good form. Can't see too many teams getting close to them.

The world was a better place when Christian values were upheld and not mocked. Much better. I’ve lived both and give me the 80/90’s values than the garbage we have to put up with now. It’s like an extreme gay version of Revenge of the Nerds and I don’t like it.

If anyone disagrees, oh well. I’m still in the overwhelming majority.

I noticed during the rugby the other day in the main stadium that the athletic track was covered by a purple tarp or whatever... The French organisers wearing it purple to keep the opening ceremony theme going...

 

[the phantom menace]

Here's one for any hysterical Christians who thought the opening ceremony feast scene was somehow all about them... try a bit of history and facts to counter the paranoid fanaticism?

Skating was entertaining, Covell did good to make the top 8 and the final.

Hard to better that Japanese contingent, the Brazilian, or the American competitors though.

The medalists are all getting a giant toblerone.

Jess Fox is a Marvel.

We can thank Sydney 2000 for having her become an Aussie.

Her parents wouldn't have moved to Penrith otherwise.

What a Champion one of our best Olympians of the modern era.

Outrageous comments. Can't beleive he said that.


Well the women just finishing up,” Ballard said to millions across the continent. “You know what women are like … hanging around, doing their make-up.”

Gojira definitely the highlight of the Opening ceremony for mine

And you believe that? It was to mock Christianity nothing else. It offended billions of Christians not just me on a f**king footy forum.

What they should have done is do a veiled mockery of Islam. I wonder what would have happened then?

Maybe the French should just concentrate on trying to stop their own new citizens shitting in the river.

Meanwhile the USA beat Germany 4-1.

I think that means we're f**ked, unless we beat US well and Zambia flog Germany ?
