Bit gutted they're finishing today really, haven't caught anywhere near as much of it as I would have hoped. Actually had tickets for the taekwondo on thursday which was pretty jokes though, saw that Jade Jones chick win gold which was mad, whole place erupted :D

Ive got all the track cycling recorded to watch over the next week. Gonna help ease me out of my post olympic depression.

As for all this medal table nationalism, its just bizarre. Woohoo, i can feel good about myself cos i judt happen to havae a load of good athletes from my country.

You could literally watch back the whole of the olympics on iPlayer, including the opening cerrmony. Mo Farah what a don! Tom Daley, what a body. It was kinda sad comparing how happy Tom Daley was to get the bronze and how devastated Qiu Bo was to win the silver.

Hockey is a family of sports in which two teams play against each other by trying to maneuver a ball or a puck into the opponent's goal using a hockey stick. In many areas, one sport (typically field hockey or ice hockey[1]) is generally referred to simply as hockey.

Yeah this is confusing
Are you for real?

American retards, it's currently the SUMMER OLYMPICS. Do you seriously think people would be discussing ICE HOCKEY in a thread about the SUMMER OLYMPICS. You can safely assume that the kind of hockey discussed here is the kind of hockey that is being played.
The confusion is field hockey is usually called field hockey. Where as the mire awesome version simply called hockey

Was really cynical before it, thought it was gonna be one long annoyance, but I enjoyed it. Still havent seen the opening ceremony, so I'll have to put that on at some point.
