The Olympics

Jesus christ can we not have a tread on here that doesn’t turn into a class issue or left/right wing.

Great achievement winning a gold medal. We don’t see to many. I’m fucking delighted to be irish seeing it. Regardless of the background or sport we win it in

Andrade’s beam score has been bumped up by .1 after an appeal. Oooft. She’s now back into second place, just .101 behind Suni Lee.

Melnikova is an excellent tumbler, much better than Urazova.

1563

Suni Lee nailed that. Surely enough to take her well past Melnikova.

1564

Lee goes ahead. It’s between her and Andrade. USA v Brazil. Andrade is a floor specialist.

1565

Oh no. Andrade steps out. Lee’s gold medal surely.

And Andrade steps out again. Disaster. Surely not even her difficulty rating can save her.

1566

Lee wins. Andrade is second. Had she not stepped out the second time she probably would have won.

You don’t take all those steroids and end up with a weak neck.

What sort of standing would Smith de Bruin have in legal circles @ChairmanDan? Is she a Senior Counsel?

Can you imagine if you were on a jury for a big murder case and Michelle Smith was the defence barrister telling you “This is an innocent man!”
