Had an epiphany this afternoon.

Life is good.

[Andalus]

Was that the epiphany? I could have told you that!

[Phoenixguard09]

It seems to be a year for epiphanies somehow. I'm waiting on mine...

like how american coaches and ex-stars pointed fingers and accused other nations athletes or taking drugs and yet no one questioned whether or not the nation, which has been involved in more than its fair share of drugs scandals, had been cheating

hell the french accused team GB track cyclists of cheating with rounder wheels lol

[Jubal]

Interestingly, the most high profile finger point the Brits did in the games was one of our male discus throwers who said the Belarussian female discus thrower looked as if she'd been on drugs. She went and got the gold medal, he had to make an unreserved apology on twitter.

He turned out to be completely correct, Belarus has now had the gold medal removed after a drugs test was failed.

You got something wrong, Croatia got gold in female discus throw and no1 was disqualified cause of drugs...
Edit: I realy like how coaches screwed Spain in basketball finals so USA's "dream team" gets gold

[Jubal]

Sorry, it was shotput, my bad.

Yes, the Spanish team was a real surprise.
They really gave USA a run for their money.

Meh Australia went pretty poorly this year, apparently because this was the first year in a long time where our Olympic team had no sports psychologists.

Guess who's doing a psychology course which finishes in three years time?   Methinks I sees a job opportunity a-lying ahead.

Woops, judges, not coaches
It's a shame how in last quarter they basicly gave the victory to USA by some fishy decisions.

[Gen_Glory]

Back to my point about how out of all the competing countries, america has the best means of cheating and getting away with it

[Jubal]

There were quite a variety of bad decisions at times - that poor South Korean fencer who had the clock reset to one second instead of having it stopped at the end of her fight. In the extra second, the opponent won, and the referee refused to give the Korean the win.

[Ashanorath]

Same was in judo, our female competitor only lost cause her first opponent was defending gold from last olympics so her throw, which was same as the one our competitor did, was somehow worth 1 point more...
