Re: We got the Olympics
Yeah, that was funny. You have to wonder though, what would have happened if the Australian team manager hadn't approached the officialdom.
Glad to see the back of them.

Re: We got the Olympics
Watching the Olympics on NBN is painful... the fuckers keep changing sports mid game. It's soooo annoying! Just stick to female gymnastics and forget everything else... well maybe include the womens hockey and beach volley ball as well. The female swimmers scare the shit out of me though!

Re: We got the Olympics
NBN works great here now, it's 7 (Prime) and 10 we suck at getting now. The nearest towers for those channels two are in Coffs Harbour and Taree... My TV is tuned to both towers as often one or the other (often both) don't work.bengatta wrote:living in port macquarie must be painful enough... are NBN still on air up there or have the locals cut down the tower to rewrite history???Rots wrote:Watching the Olympics on NBN is painful... the fuckers keep changing sports mid game.

For past week, channel 7 Taree works and channel 10 in Coffs Harbour works here. Prior to that it was the other way around.

The only interest I have in these games is when Sally Pearson runs and when Oscar Pistorius runs too. I hope he does really well

Correct. She's a bit of a Kournikova. She's not that good.Big Kev wrote:Nice, but she isn't in the olympics
If it's hot pole vaulters you're after, keep an eye out for Silke Spiegelburg and Yelena Isinbayeva. They should have you vaulting your poles around the loungeroom.
Isinbayeva has the added advantage of being one of the greatest athletes of her generation.

There are also a few good looking Russian sprinters...

Re: We got the Olympics
Some neat photos here. The guardian got one of their photographers to just use an iphone to take his pics.
Probably better than I could have done with an SLR!!
