Rio 2016

[NorwayFB]

Not too fussed myself, I think the time of day it will be going on plays a part, I'm not staying up all night to watch.
Also the football is kicking off everywhere, the olympics should have started a week after the Euros.

Just noticed Nigeria U23 v Japan U23 ended 5-4 some time during the night.

 

[Lord Knows]

Pelé was due to light the Olympic Torch tonight, but no longer can. Health reasons cited as the reason.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

I am enjoying the opening ceremony.

 

[Freddeno]

Yeah, shows history

 

[NorwayFB]

Just saw a picture of the Norwegian olympic outfit. Jeeeeeeeezes that's ugly and confused.

 

[Tredman]

Cycling road race is really good so far. Some big names getting dropped already.

 

[BillyDee]

The UK mens hockey team getting absolutely dicked on by Belgium...

 

[NorwayFB]

Looks like they're still cycling. 25 km to go.

 

[slink]

Not the biggest fan of road cycling but this has been a great race.

 

[Jack Regan]

Cyclists littering the road at the moment.

 

[BillyDee]

Ouch. Geraint Thomas crashes out

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Great race there. Gutted for Majka

What events are you competing in? I'm trying to keep up with Norway on the side.

Was willing him on too. Great race, gutted for Thomas too I think he'd have been right there at the death. Froome's time trial to lose now.

Tbh I'm not really paying attention this year, I know the handball women are there, a few are cycling, a couple of swimmers and a few track & field and the odd athlete here and there. Sorry, not very helpful.

We don't have any outstanding performers now, I doubt we'll get a single medal (maybe the handball women will prove me wrong). They're normally one of the best NT in the world.

If Azerbaijan get a medal (in gymnastics) and Norway doesn't get any, you'll never hear the end of it from me.

 

[Freddeno]

i think France will be the new force in women football so expect them to beat USA now tonight

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

The women's rugby sevens is excellent stuff.

Norway? A medal in gymnastics?? Let the rant begin. :headbang:

Don't think we have any gymnasts there...
