For me the best moment of this Olympic games was watching Matthias Steiner winning gold for germany in weightlifting.

Read this article by Simon Barnes, Chief Sport's writer of The Times who descibes the scene perfectly.

How fast could that record have been if he had run through till the end? About 9.60?

Maximum respect to the Jamaican.

Olympic Sports that require a judge

helen31 — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 20:28:36 GMT

I find it extremely difficult to trust the outcome of these events because it is personal opinion that is marking them. I find that judges marks are too far apart ususally to lack consistency.

Athletics 100M sprint false starts

shane1 — Fri, 15 Aug 2008 21:53:13 GMT

In these Olympics, any false start in the 100m sprint has gone against every competitor in the race. This 'new' rule seems exremely unfair and why has it been propsed?

How safe are e-wallets?

chelsea4me — Sun, 08 Jun 2008 16:09:10 GMT

I always deposit to my betting and poker accounts using a visa card however I think I'm charged a small fee for each transaction. Would it be better if I open and use an e-wallet.. how safe are they?

The Gambler - Kenny Rogers

pocket88 — Wed, 28 May 2008 21:28:45 GMT

On a warm summers evenin on a train bound for nowhere,
I met up with the gambler; we were both too tired to sleep.
So we took turns a starin out the window at the darkness
til boredom overtook us, and he began to speak.

He said, son, Ive made a life out of readin peoples faces,
And knowin what their cards were by the way they held their eyes.
So if you dont mind my sayin, I can see youre out of aces.
For a taste of your whiskey Ill give you some advice.

So I handed him my bottle and he drank down my last swallow.
Then he bummed a cigarette and asked me for a light.
And the night got deathly quiet, and his face lost all expression.
Said, if youre gonna play the game, boy, ya gotta learn to play it right.

You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold em,
Know when to walk away and know when to run.
You never count your money when youre sittin at the table.
Therell be time enough for countin when the dealins done.

Now evry gambler knows that the secret to survivin
Is knowin what to throw away and knowing what to keep.
cause evry hands a winner and evry hands a loser,
And the best that you can hope for is to die in your sleep.

So when hed finished speakin, he turned back towards the window,
Crushed out his cigarette and faded off to sleep.
And somewhere in the darkness the gambler, he broke even.
But in his final words I found an ace that I could keep.

You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold em,
Know when to walk away and know when to run.
You never count your money when youre sittin at the table.
Therell be time enough for countin when the dealins done.

You got to know when to hold em, know when to fold em,
Know when to walk away and know when to run.
You never count you r money when youre sittin at the table.
Therell be time enough for countin when the dealins done.

Dwain Chambers

partygurl — Sun, 20 Jul 2008 22:22:47 GMT

Dwain Chambers' appeal was rejected by the UK athletics body. For those that don't know, he is the UK's best 100 metre sprinter who filed a drugs test a few years ago and was banned from the sport for a lengthy time. He kept himself in good shape and returned and qualified for the Olympic games however the UK's Olympic body refuse to let him participate.

What do you guys think?
