Ho ho I had a bit of a wager with myself pre-Games that you'd bring this up. It's become a bit of an Olympic tradition. Apologies if you've mentioned it before and I missed it. I suppose I should have my four yearly whinge that 10m pistol shooting, which amounts to 'staying completely still', is a rubbish event. What next, dead fishes? etc...
Re: Ho ho I brought it up a few days ago. You need to pay more attention. Things might change as the olympics go on but it seems we do a lot better at the 'real' sports than we do at the artistic stuff which is where china wins most of their medals. 50km walk. Now that's a sport.
