That finish was by a mile compared to the rowing finish. They watched the photo from all angles before deciding who won. Should have been two golds. 1/100 second after 2000 meters. There should be a point where they just say: Okay those two have been equally good

I can't believe how many bullshit calls the chinese basketballers got. That game was fixed. What a joke!! It's pathetic how much they're doing to keep the Chinese in.
I find these Olympics pathetic in the fight against doping, pathetic regarding the empty stadiums and pathetic in terms of organisation. Worst Olympics in years

The Swedish Wrestler, Ara Abrahamian, who was displeased with Bronze gets it taken away.

OMG! :whaa: American Tyson Gay placed 5th in his 100m heat race and so did NOT make it to the final. His olympic is pretty much done. Not sure if he'll be chosen to be part of the men 4x100m relay race though. I hope he is.

He wasn't looking good yesterday. But it doesn't matter, because Bolt was going to dominate. The guy jogged to a 9.9 yesterday.


HOLY SHIT!!!! :wacko:
click on spoiler for the finals results.

Spoiler: show
:whaa: Bolt took the gold in a record 9.69 seconds :whaa:
Richard Thompson of Trinidad &Tobago got the silver at 9.89 seconds and
American Walter Dix got the bronze with 9.91 seconds.
.
.
.
all the way in 5th place was Asafa Powell with 9.95 seconds.

He wasn't at 100%. He couldn't go that fast. At least an Dix got bronze to represent America.

NBC just had the "NBA on NBC" theme music during the bball game. Brings back memories.


with Powell not even making the top 3 we could've had 2 americans win medals. :(

"NBA on NBC" those were the golden age of the NBA. :tears:

I just read the headline on CNN. Bolt is a cheetah. He even apparently "slowed" up in the last like 10m. He could have possibly done 9.65 :ohmy:


You're a joke. Celebrating Phelps and accusing Bolt. They're both juiced and it just shows again how ridiculous the doping controls i Peking are

Tests mean nothing if the substance is too new to be detected.

All of sports is at the worst state it has ever been. The doping has gotten completely out of control. EPO has nothing against this new wonder drug. 9.69 with open shoes and jogging is not humanyly possible without chemical help, neither are the achievement of Michael Phelps, the australian swimmers and the german gold medalist. It's a sad, sad 14 days for sports

Liu Xiang of China is going down! :twisted:
He's going to be upset at the 110m hurdle final next week by an American. :P
if he makes it that far. :lol: he might just pull a Tyson Gay and not even qualify for the finals.

I agree with Levy, these athletes who are shattering records are doping IMO.

I assume everyone is doping and therefore don't really care when records are broken because I assume those records were gained though doping. If everyone is cheating, is anyone really cheating?
