The 2012 London Olympics Thread

[milohimself]

Spain and France wrapped in a tight one on NBCSN right now

 

[milohimself]

There's some hard cheap shots going on. If it were any other two countries, fist fights would be breaking out.

Congrats to Aries for competing for UT!

 

[Velo Vol]

Gold!

 

[UTCVol]

Ouch.

 

[milohimself]

Thats a trail blazer right there...

 

[vol_in_ar]

any idea why he did that

 

[milohimself]

The game was starting to slip away in the fourth and the French were getting chippy

Ronny Turiaf put a hard foul on Rudy Fernandez about a minute or two prior to that

 

[Thrasher865]

I think it was because Fernandez kept flopping.

 

[Thrasher865]

Oh, never mind. That wasn't Fernandez.

Are spectators at beach volleyball matches quite lively? Or is NBC cranking up the crowd volume?

It's pretty lively. They play music and whatnot between points. The PA keeps the crowd up.

Yeah the idiot commentators on SportsCenter or w/e I was watching were trying to say it was a play on the ball. No. It was a play on the balls.

How often do you go after the basketball with a closed fist??? What a bunch of idiots.

 

[orange+white=heaven]

synchronized swimming.... shoot me now.

that 2man canoe business looks difficult x10

 

[Velo Vol]

How does a protest work in track and field (South African relayer got tripped)?

 

[utvolpj]

was it in the finals? I know in one of the semis (1500m I think) a guy protested, won and was moved on to the finals

 

[Velo Vol]

No, a semifinal. NBC just said they won and will be in the final.

So it doesn't make any difference if they were way back in the field? Because I doubt they would have qualified if they ran the whole race. They were near the back.
