olympics

[Bad Wolf]

anyone going to bother watching??????

my mate said we have quite a good chance of some medals this year?????

[Abigail]

I like watching the gymnastics and althletics. The rest don't bother me at all.

Which broadcasters are showing the olympics this time?

[Bad Wolf]

the bbc i think has it all

i like the gymnastics and the diving its allways worth a look just incase somone messes it up and bellyflops - im so mean

[Abigail]

Yeah, that's part of the reason why I watch it, just to see who falls off the beam or hurts themselves

[Bad Wolf]

why is injury so funny especially in major sport competitions???? like when fotballers fall over their laces and cry, makes me cry tears of laughter...

[Abigail]

I dunno. Maybe because I'm sat at home watching them sweat in the heat and perform in front of millions of people Pressure must be immense not to fall over or have an accident.

[Bad Wolf]

paula radcliffe had another type of accident - that was more squemish than funny tho

[Katy]

that was horrible! I might watch a bit, i like the sailing and the athletics.

[Siobhan]

I will just watch the gymnastics..

[Abi]

I love the olympics. I love the running and the swimming, mainly. There is an American swimmer this year who is 40-something. She's someone to look out for, i think.
