Leading the Dane in the current race...

He must have received some tips from Annalise Murphy.

What sport is this and who is competing? I'm a little lost.

Brolly is some troll - love the way he gets under the skin of that one eyed auld bollix. IMO, Cooper is superb but he doesn't hold a candle to Maurice Fitzgerald, now he was an artist - my favourite footballer of all time. Canavan was better too imo, dragged average Tyrone teams through the ninetie...

Yeah, it's pretty damn poor

GB leading the eventing at the moment, more riders to come though I've always been a fan of *checks notes* horses. I used that silly little joke not 2 pages ago, buster. And I was riffing on your theme, man. Consider it a compliment, as opposed to shameless plagiarism. I accept your grovelling apol...

There is a lady sailor doing well but I have no idea no the competition works nor how likely she is to medal.

I fear we will be relying on dear Katie.

GB womens' hockey captain has just had a plate inserted in her broken jaw but may still play on in the tournament. Take note footballers... I called broken jaw the moment I saw her walking off last night poor wench - The Nips didn't bat an eyelid when they minced our two girls not so much as an enq...

Bah! If we weren't already at home we might as well go home now.

That's the spirit!

Stop being so defeatist, Brits, the Games are only a couple of days old.

Team GB not really delivering thus far.

Doing better than my combined Ireland-Switzerland team. I may switch allegiance to the Chinese.

Thanks. How many races in th Finn class. It's about 8 isn't it? 10 in most of the classes, you get to discard your worst result. Then top 10 sail in a medal race with double points Thank you. Yuo are now designated sailing aficianado of the bored. And the Irish girl wins 2 out of 2 :D Is that a ban...

I can report that there are many pretty ladies on the court.

Best of luck London & Dublin

Irelands first Olympic gymnast to make his debut :thumbup: “I was just born to do this.

Well done, that man. Hell of a story.

Jong Oh Jin has been in poor form in the Mens 10M Air Pistol this season so might ruin your bet. He always raises his game for the big occasion though. Class air pistoller, tbf. The Federer of air pistolling. His bullets glide through the air with grace and strike the target with panache. Always a ...

100M I would think the most difficult one to get here?

I'm considering placing a bet on a Blake 100m/200m double.

By the way the 'I'm a bloke, why would I have one' argument is pretty much wafer thin. If you grew up in my generation you would all have one, no arguments. I imagine I'm about your age, Mitty (perhaps a tad older?). I'm not wearing my non-FB status as a badge of honour (people who do that are sill...

TSG - I thought you sold all your facebook stock fairly quickly on the day for a nice profit?

He did if I recall correctly; he's maintaining that he should have held his short position as FB is continuing to tank.

My main problem is their inability to monetise their mobile version, less and less people will be using FB on their laptop.

We did a bet in work asking where Facebook would be 6 months post-IPO (we swerved, btw); how they laughed when I suggested closer to zero than initial price.

Follow-up Olympics Question...

Answers on a postcard please......

Pah, those Sligo lads catch all the breaks.

That's a fair analysis. Is it on the box, do you know? It will be 8pm over here so a lovely accompaniment to Saturday evening drinks.

Proper order that, have said it before but Mickey Harte is a real class act. A Gentleman. Absolutely, he's one of the good 'uns. It must be noted that, however much animosity existed between the Kerry and Tyrone sides, both sets of fans have tended to get on famously. I had a couple of great nights...

Could have been straight from the mouth of Jack O'Connor himself.

Donegal the only non-Nordie/Catholic county with a good number of clubs as well. GAA's way too big up there for my liking. There's huge scope for growth as the two can easily co-exist, Joe. Kerry, for example, is probably the most fervent GAA county (it's certainly in the conversation) and yet ther...

So, we're being universally written off.

Good.

Kerry can take out one of the top 3?!

They're second favourites, Piaras.
