That was the men’s high bar.
Derval up next in the second 100 semi final.
Strong first 50, but just couldnt keep up when Pearson, Lolo et al powered through. 5th in the end, equalling her SB. Eliminated.
Lolo Jones revealed she’s a virgin earlier this year. Somebody has updated her Wiki:

She has stated that she would only lose her virginity before marriage to the admins of Football 365’s forum if they asked. She was quoted as saying “I just love the power they hold.”

It was the correct decision, She pulled a stunt on the Aussie like was pulled on Rocko in the infamous Berlin mall race. Fortunately the commissaires were made of sterner stuff than Clarkey Cat and Bandage and disqualified her. Chris Boardman whinging like a stuck pig over the injustice of it all. Fuck em, they have enough won at this stage.
Morrissey not happy with the jingoism on display in Britain. From todays Telegraph:
"The singer claimed the Royal Family have “hijacked” the Games and said “the spirit of 1939 Germany now pervades throughout media-brand Britain”.
In a message to fans on his website, the former Smiths frontman wrote: “I am unable to watch the Olympics due to the blustering jingoism that drenches the event. Has England ever been quite so foul with patriotism?
“The ‘dazzling royals’ have, quite naturally, hi-jacked the Olympics for their own empirical needs, and no oppositional voice is allowed in the free press. It is lethal to witness.
“As London is suddenly promoted as a super-wealth brand, the England outside London shivers beneath cutbacks, tight circumstances and economic disasters. Meanwhile the British media present 24-hour coverage of the ‘dazzling royals’, laughing as they lavishly spend, as if such coverage is certain to make British society feel fully whole.
“In 2012, the British public is evidently assumed to be undersized pigmies, scarcely able to formulate thought.”
He went on: “As I recently drove through Greece I noticed repeated graffiti seemingly everywhere on every available wall. In large blue letters it said WAKE UP WAKE UP.
"It could almost have been written with the British public in mind, because although the spirit of 1939 Germany now pervades throughout media-brand Britain, the 2013 grotesque inevitability of Lord and Lady Beckham (with Sir Jamie Horrible close at heel) is, believe me, a fate worse than life. WAKE UP WAKE UP.”
Morrissey, who famously draped himself in the Union flag during a 1992 concert in Finsbury Park, has made several bids for attention this year by making public pronouncements which he hoped would prove controversial.
He told an Argentinian audience that the Falkland Islands had been stolen from them, and later dressed his band in “We Hate William and Kate” T-shirts.
In his website address, Morrissey said he had enjoyed the most successful year of his touring life.
“The incredible audience reactions in Istanbul, Athens and Tel-Aviv have left me insensible, and were completely at odds with the common belief that the world of music is now dumb and sterile,” he said.
“Thank you to the city of Tel-Aviv for granting me the Keys to their city. I just might die with a smile on my face, after all.”
I fully expect Michael Conlan to win his bout at 9 p.m.
Michael Conlan up now. 
Unlikely he’ll win it at 9, its 9.04 now.
Thats another splendid jacket Kenny is wearing 
Hon Mick Conlan
Anto knows a lot more about amateur boxing than about darts or cycling so I trust him.
Sickening to see the likes of Gola and Runt jumping on the bandwagon now but won’t begrudge them another medal here. C’mon Michael.
Poor Jimmy might have done well to listen to the analysis of the last time these lads fought.
I think Conlan is doing very well to be level there.
How so?
5-5 after 1st round. The French bringing all the agression but Conlon slipping a few sly digs in here and there
+1, but yer man is very wild.
This is fucking tight
12-12 after 2 rounds
I sense the French lad was tiring slightly in th last minute of that round.
Hoping your man has tired himself a bit for this last round. Conlon’s little duck and swerve to the right is class.
