- The first Saturday night at the Olympic stadium with the 3 GB golds.

- Trott, Ennis, Jade Jones etc. winning medals. Hot, hard-working, high-achieving women getting the platform they deserve. Nice change from the thick, fame-desperate, she-pricks that normally get celebrated in this country.

- Generally London has been pretty cool for the last fortnight. Loads of great touches like free park screens etc. Was lucky enough to get along to a handful of events in the end including free marathons etc. and they were all excellent - atmosphere, organisation (apart from the slog of getting the tickets) diverse crowds etc. Personal highlight was the gymnastics which I wasn't expecting to enjoy at all.

The applause for the saudi girl in the 800 metres.

Shame she'll probably be stoned to death when she gets back.

Fucking moronic religious dick heads!!!

The first Saturday of the athletics, with 3 gold medals won in quick succession was pretty special, and is hard to top.

Other stand out moments for me were Murray winning gold, Kat Copeland's reaction and Hoy winning the Keirin.

David Rudisha's run was the best non-British moment for me. A ridiculously good performance.

I also enjoyed Daley holding his nerve in his final dive. I know he only won bronze but it was a good moment.

Actually, the opening ceremony as well. Far better than I thought it was going to be.

The Russian woman who won the steeplechase. Never quite understood why they bothered with the fences but it was amazing to see how much ground she gained at each steeplechase.

This my wife's greatest moment

This empty sanitised shell of a stadium, a cathedral to the vanity and narcissism of one man. It’s very difficult to fall in love with football amongst the rows of empty seats. The notion that a stadium has worth beyond its potential commerical value or it’s proximity to transport links – as a spiritual repository of the hopes,fears and agonies of generations of supporters, or as a physical manifestation of the football club in the community, is a dying one in football (Sam Volkman)

The best moment would have been seeing Posh Spice fall off the roof of the taxi during the closing ceremony, but alas, it did not happen.

Gemma winning the silver and speaking to her mam....it was the iconic moment of the games for me.

Letting Oscar Pistorius run in the Olympics games is taking away the right of an able body person to complete in the games when Oscar is runnning in the Paralympics.

Oh dear!

Nobody has the "right" to compete.

He qualified because he was better.

But he is running in both games ! Thats just unfair on an able body person. Its one or the other he should be made to pick which one he wants to run in not run in both games

Rubbish!!!

He was South Africa's only competitor in the men's 400 metres. He came 8th in his semi final.

Each nation could have a maximum of 3 competitors in each athletic event.

Who, exactly, did he prevent from competing?

He is being greedy running in both. Its one or the other you can't have both

Words cannot explain just how wrong you are. They just can't.

It's people like you that prevent progress!!!


So Usain Bolt is greedy for running in 100m, 200m, and 4 x 100m relay.

He also could have given up a couple of places to an inferior althlete.

And let's not even start on Michael Phelps or all the under 18 competitors that took the place of a senior.

What about all those women taking part. Think how many more men could have competed if teir places had not been stolen.


The word moron would be a credit to you, honestly!

Completely missing the point and actually quite discriminatory.

Pistorius was faster than the able bodied 400m runners in South Africa. That's why he was picked.

He wouldn't have been at the Olympics if he wasn't. Given your clear, in depth knowledge of South African 400m running, who should have gone in his place?

Is Mo Farah greedy for running the 5,000 and 10,000m?

Just not a prejudiced one.


By the way, XXXL should suit you fine.

For me, the two Mo Farah gold medal moments will take some beating.

I'm just proud that there are so many moments to choose from.

He can run in has many events has he wants too has long has its the games or the paralympics. Just seems he is having his cake & eatting it.

I'm a fan of the Paralympic btw. Will be watching murderball/ wheelchair rugby.

So the Paralympics aren't "normal"?

Do the blades actually give him any advantage?

Yes, without them he can't run!

Seriously though, he failed to qualify for the final, coming 8th in his semi.

Oops that was a mistake

Must admit, I haven't watched much paralympics in the past.

But now you mention wheelchair rugby, that could be interesting!

I'll watch out for it.

Yeah its a great sport. Fly into each other which after watching football players cry & dive over a little light knock.

First game; GB v USA, Sep 5th.

Make a note.
