Champions aren't realistic. Ya reckon Perkins was being realistic before he won the 1500m from lane 8? No way.

LOL at the Chinese officials defending Shiwen Le, the 16yo swimmer in the 200m Womens IM.
She is currently swimming 6 seconds faster than 12 months ago and in the semi this morning her final 50m split was faster than Lochte and Phelps' in their final :shock:
Some pretty good juice she's got there

Disappointing night at the swimming tonight Coutts was great and beaten by a faster swimmer on the night (subject to drug tests ;) ) Rice did her best with 2 shoulder that are F*&%ed. Relay was a disappointing 5th looked good to start with but faded. Phelps is a legend and always will be so glad i got to see hm swim in 2 race for a gold and a silver.

Hoping for some more medals on Wednesday night but can see any gold. Guess I’m going to have to rely on the rowing to see an Aussie gold.

Surely she should be considered innocent until found guilty?

If she (or any other athlete) is found guilty of cheating at some time in the future then I will join in the criticism...

Doesn't mean it's not possible (without PEDs).

I think she is a cyborg.
