That race, post race reaction, and then interview was my highlight of the '08 Olympics. People who think it reflects poorly on her, or Australia, can go and get ****ed. Don't think I've ever seen someone so excited to win an Olympic medal of any sort, was sensational.

I thought the hot american one was in with a chance. Btw read somewhere Ennis would have qualified fastest given her heptathlon time? That's crazy why didn't she contend?
Reckon there are other ways to lose such as false starting, knocking over a handle, having a poor start etc. It wont be easy.

On an unrelated note, I do wish this event was still part of the Games.

I didn't actually watch the video, non do I remember it, but I can't think of a worst way to judge than a person than a interview moments after a race. hate it so much.

With the English bid I said: Let us be brief. If you give back the Falkland Islands, which belong to us, you will get my vote. They then became sad and left
I remember it, it was great. priceless.
Said she wanted to give her body a rest.
It's a shame I think. Would have been endlessly hilarious if she'd entered as an afterthought and then beaten the Aussie into second.

Yeah as hilarious as a ham sandwich.
She's an exceptional athlete Ennis so it would be quite normal for her to enter into an event that she is clearly terrific at and win gold.
She was saying she's hardly slept recently, I don't think she'd have been mentally or physically right for it.
Shame really, it has been mentioned in the press, it maybe her main aim from now on.
Do I contradict myself?
Very well then I contradict myself,

Have about as much chance as me
Pearson won the WC in 12.28, Enniss' best is 12.50 something
Enniss is a great heptathlete but Sally would have to be shot to lose to her
Ha ha
Should we pour 500 million bucks straight down the ****ter in the form of a couple of holes in the ground that no-one can account for OR spend it on sporting facilities/athletes
You obviously have a very lose definition of infrastructure
The Olympics isn't ****, but I have to say the Olympics website is. I am trying to find out which semifinal our hockey girls will be in, yet I cannot find it anywhere. Every schedule, timetable, etc only has "Semi Final 1" or "Semi Final 2" listed - it doesn't say whether it's 1st in Pool A vs 2nd in Pool B or vice versa. Driving me mad, I'm desperately looking for tickets but what's the point when I don't know what time the game is?
Wish we were as good as you Aussies. You guys are so great.
Have to say all the crying's a bit ****, isn't it?
