It appears some US Military have gone on social media to protest that they are fed-up of war and are disgusted by being made to fight on Al Qaeda's side:

Well I'm happy. Our first team is fantastic as the last quarter of last season showed. We just need depth and competition and spare defenders. We have 2/3 of that now. If we are lucky with defensive injuries we can really do a great thing this season. The best thing of all is the squad has been kept...

According to sky, Arsenal are in advanced talks with Ozil "Sky Sports Understands" = "Lets Make Shit Up. Probably Bullshit" If they did land Ozil some kick in the stones for Utd, arent they in for him too. With Whilshire, Cazorla and Rosickey there I cant see Wenger going for it. And look how wrong...

See the mens pair aka Murray and Bond show? They really are amazingly so far ahead. Is it about 5 years undefeated? 8) 16 titles -- Olympics, world championships, world cups.

Prefer pair and four myself,much more technical boats,the 8 can afford to carry some monsters that aren't technically brilliant,pair is a whore of a boat to master and four isn't much easier. I'd love to have been with JG for the last 6 weeks,I'd say he pulled every trick out of his book to get the...

A legendary run.

ok, free to air stopped covering rowing backin the 90s here Here the BBC has it only on stream, probably because it's at 6am and BBC3 and BBC4 aren't active until 7pm (why not BBC2?!??) as they showed the world cup races at Eton Dorney. They have shown highlights later on in the day though. If you ...

no doubt you will be covering all events not just cherry picking events you have already won The championships just finished mate and Britain already had gold from the women's pair yesterday.

GOLD! Beat the supreme Germans after they Germans were catching up. Our German in charge will be happy.

eldanielfire

The British 8 look on course to Gold.

Amazing, throwing the talent in the 8 was a massive experiment this season and I was wondering if it wasn't a mistake.

Actually, that was the reason I posted that first pic. This place routinely rubbishes women's sport until someone posts some tits, then it's 'all aboard'.

Pretty much sums it up.

You do realise he's been injured for several months, more or less from the start of the season and months even before this wave of doping positives hit the news

If one thing has shown us is that if you invest in women's sports the quality increases, the entertainment increases and the eventual return is one of success. Tennis, Athletics, Basketball, Football and Golf have all been successes by investing and giving attention to women's sports. The US college...

And there's not rumours around every and any athletic sprint champ? My point however is not that there might have been corroborating evidence, circumstantial or otherwise, but that the logic of stating "to beat known dopers, you would have to be a doper yourself" seems to stand up pretty strongly w...

It's disappointing news, I was a fan of Tyson and thought he had a great shot at the world championship title in a few weeks time.

Jessica Ennis makes a lot of money because she's a sex symbol, don't kid yourself otherwise. She may be sexy, but isn't promoted as a sex symbol.

If they cleaned up athletics the biggest loser would be the sporting bodies like the IOC. It's all about bums on seats and hype.

There is bags of evidence of failed tests being swept under the carpet. Carl Lewis being the most obvious one. That was swept under the carpet by his national federation, not any global conspiracy.
