According to the london2012 website, the Men's 10m Platform prelims are today.
Go Matthew Mitcham!
And of course Australia must continue winning all the sailing things
We also have some BMX tonight although can someone please get Sam Willoughby some Proactiv stat so he can clear away those pimples and get his confidence to race consistently again?

Hopefully NZ kicks British arse in the sailing and wins the Gold. You lot have way too many. Looking forward to BMX as well where we have medal contenders and start of our medal hope in sprint canoeing. Not many events left. Oh and can we kick british arse in hockey and win the bronze medal.

Boxing semis for the men today. Three Irish fighters in action against a Chinese and two Cubans. The odds are against them, but here's hoping that at least one can get an upgrade!
To think that fun is simple fun, while earnest things are earnest, proves all too plain that neither one thou truthfully discernest.

today's google home page is a soccer goalie. it's easier than the one with the hurdles.
I feel like I'm in a dream. But it can't be a dream because there are no boy dancers!

Spare a thought for Aaron Cook. Ranked number 1 in the world he should be going for gold in Taekwondo today. However, due to politics in his sport he was not selected and replaced by the world number 59. Ludicrous. A potential gold given away.

i googled it and read a few articles about aaron cook but nothing that explains why he wasnt picked except for 1 quote from sarah stevenson saying "to be world # 1 is not what tae kwan do is." why didnt they pick him?

There is definitely a whole other side to the story we're not hearing about. He's probably a bit of a wankstain.

It seems to be related to him leaving the GB Taekwondo training camp to train with his own coaches Originally Posted by my little pony

Sarah Stevenson loses her Taekwondo prelims
After all she's gone through; both parents dying within 3 months of each other and then wanting to win for them but to incur an ACL injury this year. It's a miracle she's even competing I guess. 
Inspiring Mirai Nagasu!

Real shame. An ACL is one of the worst injuries to come back from. Aliya Mustafina did well to come back from the one she had, and she was still not back to her best after 15 months. It takes a very long time to recover from something like that, and to recover your form once you have Originally Posted by floskate

Canada has two different Ryan Cochranes at this Olympics. One a swimmer, one in kayak.

C'mon Paddy Barnes!
Hope he can score at least a point unlike in Beijing.
