The 2024 Paris Olympics Thread

Did you see the BMX freestyle? Outrageous and how you split the ones up who don't fall god only knows!

The lass we have in the BMX racing absolutely blitzed qualifying yesterday. Was winning heats by a clear second and more. Real good chance of a gold there.

Seen that last night and she won every heat by a street. The only problem is that its a free for all at the start so it could all go belly up.

Her interview afterwards was wicked, proper down to earth girl. 'maaaate I'm buzzing'

 

[Langers]

Another gold!

 

[Sniffer]

Get In!

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Tommy Fleetwood going well in the golf

 

[Johnny75]

Gold in the ultimate posh twat sport.

Exciting to watch.

 

[Carrotdude]

What a day so far!

Might try and drive my car like this, just causally hang out so I can see how many Tractors are ahead of me

Books and covers and all that, but this judo final looks like one of the biggest athletic mismatches a six year old could draw.

The Korean lad (in white) is the world champion apparently.

Judo's wank. It's just tripping people up, but if you feel like you're in trouble you can just dive the floor and then you're separated? Nonsense sport.

It's just tripping people up

EVERY playground fight in the 90s descended into "mutual headlock, and fruitless attempts to leg the other one up". You knew it was no spectator sport after the first few punches.

Michael Johnson on punditry is like the first sip of an ice cold pint on a hot day. Hands down the best pundit on any sport.

A class athlete (one of my favourites ever), a class broadcaster and a class man.

Careful you'll have Alan getting twitchy with the "class act" stuff for black sportsmen

 

[ROVERT47]

Yes, agree with everything said regarding Michael Johnson.

Phoebe Gill looks so bloody nervous! Hope the occasion doesn't get to her must be tough at 17 though.

Well timed to get 3rd place and go through but not sure the pace is there to do much at the sharp end.

She looked a bit heavy legged which could be nerves. She looked much quicker in the UK Champs.
