Dead right! Fucks me off no end all the fuckin' hullabaloo. The same with the cabaret at the start of each race. Just get to the start line and get on with it. Wonder if they'll start doing this in the PL? Mind-numbing nonsense.

I don't mind them. Just wish we didn't see each one 8 times in the hour leading up to the final.

Fucking yank bastard

Some ‘reputation management’ going on with these 2 post race 200m interviews.

I love how they always have to mention that the women's record goes back to 1986, but they can't say that she was blatantly doping because she was never caught.

Both our sprinters are really nice people, come across really well.

Wanted Alfred the great to win the double alas wasn't meant to be.

Very very annoying isn’t it - hardly shown any live events tonight. Shambles!

I was watching the basketball today, Serbia match , came onto Bluemoon to check was Alvarez finally gone and spotted that someone had posted the result and report of the match.
It had finished an hour before BBC had shown it and I was like a gobshite thinking it was live.

And she is now also a gold medalist!

Wow, just realised Thomas is graduate of Harvard (undergad) with degrees in neurobiology and global health, and of University of Texas (graduate) with a degree in epidimeology.

I mean, wow! Brains, beauty, and brawn!

There was literally nothing between 3rd, 4th and 5th in the women’s 200 there, according to Iwan Thomas.
