It's 2012 though, how many people have no access to either news channels, the internet or newspapers? Much like the Olympics themselves, you can avoid or take in as much as you want. It's not like people are being spoonfed against their will.

Fraid not. The thread title reads 'hate the olympics', not 'hate people who like the olympics' People who have committed the terrible crime of watching sport on TV and in person have been accused of: a) Being brainwashed - if people enjoy new sports thanks to catching them as part of Olympic...

My post was in reply to this: Which is massive bullshit. As of course is your notion that people enjoying something you don't means they're 'brainwashed', or that sports you don't enjoy have no validity. Football, just a load of rich idiots booting leather around some grass yeah? If you...

The BBC is the only channel that carries the Olympic coverage. At the very most, that's 40% of your channel selection if both terrestrial channels are running it together (I don't know if anyone still has only the five channels any more) The idea that someone watching Olympic judo is somehow...

Deegan's being working with a personal trainer over the summer, there's not a chance he's fat.

It's there for me.

Pretty much everything in the Olympics is, yeah.

If both teams were trying to lose, it strikes me as a perversely fair contest.

Considering he was a professional footballer before the non-physical role he now has, yes.

On the subject of Olympic perving, not all female weightlifters follow the butch uggo template: Include your own joke about clean, jerk and snatch, it's before the watershed mind you.

The blaxploitation remake of Clockwork Orange didn't have much of a budget.

The kid in question appears to conduct several wars over the internet, including one bemusing one where he threatens someone in a Youtube video while swearing a LOT and kicking his bed in rage. I'd hoped that it was some creative type spoofing a character, but it seems he's just a regular twat.

This is why the Olympics is great, people take interest in sports they'd otherwise pay no attention to.

That's why I scream abuse at firemen.

The squad numbers tell you little more than what was free and what some players choose.
