Apart from Adlington any other GB swimmers have half a chance of a medal. I'm not that clued in when it comes to swimming.

Ellen Gandy could have a chance of a medal, but I'm uncertain about anyone else. We were predicted 3 medals in the pool, including 1 Gold. That looks on.



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

Just saw the Gandy heat, I don't think she stands a chance of a medal going by that performance.
Seems now up to Becky for that gold.

Ellen Gandy tried to do a Phelps, but blew it. Came in 17th, not 16th.

She sorta imploded at the end. Pretty crazy.

BUT, there's still Lowe!

Did Lowe qualify? BBC connection keeps stalling and dropping off.

@Justin- I think it's because you said if she was a 'White European' her performance wouldnt have been questioned.


I know, but ALL medalist would be tested and samples kept. An athlete's race or nationality have nothing to do with it where testing is concerned.

I was just saying race MAY matter when accusations are being thrown around.

No it really doesn't, there is no conspiracy. Chances are she will be cleared but that doesn't mean there's a conspiracy.

What conspiracy? Ajescent, you just don't get what I am trying to get across.

You are bringing "white people being found gulity" and "conspiracies" into it. What??

Let's get back to games.


Considering that you are saying she's being picked on because of her race...that's grounds for a "conspiracy".



PS One/2/p/3slim/Vita owner. I survived the Apocalyps3/Collaps3 and all I got was this lousy signature.


Xbox One: What are you doing Dave?

Good job for the guys in the Men's 200m Butterfly, finishing 2nd and 3rd overall to qualify, both beating British records!

With a 3rd place in the Women's, is a medal on?

What is the 15-strong gold barrage??



My prediction threads:

Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)

PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)

Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right

Halo 4 first 9 weeks sales prediction

PS4 to be down YOY in 2015

OK, call it whatever you like. In my original post concerning this matter I clearly stated that maybe I was looking too deeply into it.

Let's agree that I was looking to deeply into and move on.

It hasn't started yet MBP! It's still early in the day...

First medals will be handed out in the Equestrian. We're currently in 1st, with a few to go.
