Rio Olympics 2016

[Nikhil]

Watching NBC and no sign of the track & field, especially the 100M final... what gives?
Any US based folk on here know which channel it's on? I see water polo and women's volleyball on at the moment (5:35 PST).

I'm not reading any of the other post on here so I can avoid the result...

NBC are not showing anything live. They want to show it at primetime later.

But you can stream it live on their website.

I'm struggling to stay up right now. This 9/10 seconds better be worth it.

Ditto. Flagging a bit now.

Merritt is a lane inside James makes it more interesting

Get a room

 

[Jippy]

I guess Stormfront isn't sponsoring the 400m final.

 

[Amir]

Was just thinking this, the last I remember him he won the 2011 world championships and then went off the boil for some reason

Injuries. Though people around him thought they had a mental effect as well.

 

[starman]

Reckon Hudson Smith could nick a medal

 

[Damien]

Wow. World Record.

 

[paulscholes18]

Huge record, didn't see that coming

 

[Scrumpet]

Holy shit

 

[U99ted]

World Record!!!

 

[ArmchairCritic]

Wow that last 200m.

 

[Jippy]

Wow, for all the build up about the two guys with stupid names, someone else creams it.

 

[starman]

how the feck did he do that from lane 8

 

[Sigma]

Wow van Niekerk

 

[paulscholes18]

And in lane 8 as well

 

[Sylar]

Holy feck.

 

[Rightnr]

Insane.

 

[Jippy]

Reckon Hudson Smith could nick a medal

Maybe if he becomes a car burglar.

 

[Reckless Full Back]

Crazy!

 

[paulscholes18]

Reckon Hudson Smith could nick a medal

Or last

 

[Dante]

That's one of the top 5 races I've ever seen.

 

[starman]

Or last

Wasn't talking about this race

 

[Rightnr]

Usain to run under 9.00 just because he likes the spotlight.

 

[Pink Moon]

The way he was just pulling away from them at the end was insane.

 

[TheNewEra]

Bolts last Olympics, hope he does himself justice and beats the drugs cheat Gatlin.

 

[Dante]

That's right up there with anything I've seen from Bolt or Johnson. Incredible. I'll be surprised if anyone can top that in the 100m.

 

[Red Pavan]

Wow!

Bolt to break Olympic record now.

 

[Red Pavan]

Bolts last Olympics, hope he does himself justice and beats the drugs cheat Gatlin.

Bolt will ease it imo.

 

[WR]

Bolt will win it in 9.74

 

[Lennon7]

Get a room

No point for 9/10 seconds. Behind a bin'll do

 

[100]

And in lane 8 as well

What's the significance of that?

 

[Ubik]

Didn't think that Johnson record would go for ages. Had that guy run close to that before?

 

[Lennon7]

Ditto. Flagging a bit now.

Good job that 400m was class

 

[Jippy]

That's right up there with anything I've seen from Bolt or Johnson. Incredible. I'll be surprised if anyone can top that in the 100m.

Bolt breaking 100m and 200m in Beijing and then breaking both world records again in the next WC was the best I've seen. Unheard of.

 

[Jippy]

Good job that 400m was class

Aye, ten or so mins now...

 

[Lennon7]

This Canadian girls fit. Might nip over to Rio

 

[Sigma]

If Bolt gets an OK start, I think he could break the WR. His starts are normally the worst part of his race

 

[Dante]

Didn't think that Johnson record would go for ages. Had that guy run close to that before?

43.48 before today. One of the fastest 400m runners of all time, but 43.03 is something else. I'm still buzzing.
