and then there's the many who get away with doping because they have mastered "masking" !

[CRAZY-HORSE]

...and now we have a dumbass Australian rower who has been sent home after going out on a drunken binge,smashing up shopfront windows,being arrested by Surrey police....when will these guys ever learn to behave!!!!!!
and to cap it off,while he was causing his mayhem he was wearing the Australian Olympic tracksuit....bloody disgrace to not only Australian sport,the olympic spirit and himself, but his parents had flown over to London to see him compete!!!!...total a###hole IMHO!

I watched some of the opening ceremony because I know some of the people who took part in it. which was cool. One of my work friends is also doing the closing ceremony. Thats as much of the Olympics as I am likly to watch.

I had a very unpleasant experience with an American Tourist who is over for the games-as I could tell by the junk she had on.. was with my flatmate, who has a broken foot, and is on crutches. As she was trying to get off of the tube train, this woman and her friends decide to push on-despite the fact that all of the announcements and common sense says to let the passengersoff of the train before boarding. shoving my friend, who fell over!!!1 so, very unlike me, I lost my temper at her and erm.. gave her what for!!!! I know she is not represntative of her country, and for that I am glad

That's why I hate crowds there's always an idiot or sometimes dozens of idiots!

Good to see they have not forgotten Mike Oldfield! Rowan Atkinson was brilliant with his take on 'Chariots of Fire' I enjoyed that. Paul McCartney - big ooops!

pmac was horrible....of all the great songs he does hey jude....and the forced sing along....embrassing

[SteveO]

The crowd yesterday sang Beatle songs together because Macca was in the crowd to watch the cycling ! I thought it was pretty cool that The Beatles music is still popular some 40 years later !!!!!

What other groups can say that.....their songs were crafted to singalong to and to last through the ages IMHO!
