So I guess everyones been catching the Olympics like me ;D Ahhh well, at least Australia is sitting pretty in second place overall (at the moment lol). Anyone watch the syncronised diving? When I first heard they were gonna show it I thought "you gotta be kidding" but the timing is quite amazing, given the complex dives they were doing. Maybe they should have a dive section for Bommies... yeah.. that'd be good.. I'd be up for entering that  |

I think the judge was spending more time telling them to "get on with it" than the competitors actually spent doing anything. Some of the Judo was good though - one of the Japanese competitors was called "gayman bang" lol (the spelling will no doubt be wrong, but thats how they pronounced it)!! |

Uggh! Very dissapointed! Like Trav said, giving out warnings to get on with it. Although, I think Justin (or someone from Rayner's Lane TKD mentioned to me that there was a knockout! Even so, I was bored with what I saw with Olympic TKD.
They REALLY need to add face punching to keep them on their toes, make it more exciting and a bit closer to martial arts training imo.
