London 2012 Olympics Thread

Total comeback from the grave by Russia against Brazil in volleyball.

That game of Basketball is severely disabled. I mean tactical fouls in deep opposition territory lead to free throws.
Everybody knows Player A goes trou the middle to score, and there is nothing you can do about it, unless you foul.
The last minute always taking at least 10 minutes.
Players as big as bouncers playing a no-touch game? What the hell ist that?

Sorry, i can´t help, even after seeing the so called dream team now, it´s actually worse than soccer...

 

[The Hitch]

lol theres some 13 year olds on a lorry and apparently there is the spice girls to come. Who would pay 2 grand to see this?

 

[Cancellator]

This ceremony is a little bit bizarre...

 

[The Hitch]

Who the **** is ruining We will rock you? Of all the people they could have chosen

Great Brian May show. Wish Freddie was there too... Would have been the hi-lite.

 

[DominicDecoco]

Almost had it, London. Did brilliantly for 3 weeks and just couldn't do without a Take That performance.. Shame

No, it was horrible, they had a childrens pop star sing the lyrics.

 

[FoxxyBrown1111]

I liked Brian May´s solo. That i didn´t like someone else spoiling Freddie´s songs should be obvious.

Winning an Olympic medal is exciting.

Holly cow. this dude sports a better camel-bro than Oscar Freier

Jessy J is so wrong. It is about the money, and it is about the price tag.Ba Bling Ba Bling.

 

[pedaling squares]

I was laughing at the pop stars lip-syncing and figured it was the worst thing I'd seen in years. Then I remembered the closing fiasco from Vancouver 2010.

Thank God this is over, no more of that nauseating "I believe" song. Canadians will know what I mean.

I hope Missy Franklin doesn't get the tag " female phelps" as the girl who got that tag in 2008 didn't even make the team for london.

 

[DenisMenchov]

Natalie Coughlin? I think she won a medal or two in the relays

I was reading while the family watched the closing ceremony. my youngest daughter yelled out "Dad come quick, Bradley Wiggans is singing some song called wonderwall or something"....

Brilliant.

 

[Boeing]

Obvious songs and bands relevant to theme left out?

How about Clash - London Calling, Pistols- God Save the Queen followed by Smiths- How Soon is Now?

 

[Libertine Seguros]

I'm sure Morrissey would have been keen to get himself involved after comparing the Olympic festivities to the Nuremberg rallies.

They should have got somebody like Genesis P-Orridge or Steve Ignorant to contribute. That would have improved things 1000%. Instead we got Russell Brand.

Skills not worthy of Olympic Sport?
