[/url]A cacophony of boos from the crowd helped force a reviewing jury to take the unprecedented step of overturning the decision of a referee and his two judges in the Olympic judo on Sunday.
Maybe there should have been more boo-ing when Vino crossed the line yesterday
Didn't that also happen in taekwondo at the last Games?
The vino accusations really are laughable.
Its Olympics, how lazy are you, you cant type an O? I just did it twice, tooke me less that half a second. O, 3 times. Sorry to be a pedant, but its getting on my wick now.
Watched the fight and was amazed when the Korean was awarded the fight. Not sure what triggers the tv Refs getting involved but they made the right choice.
The speed of throws and the agility of the top judoka in trying to avoid being thown means it is pretty hard to ref. The corner judges help but sometimes tv replays in slow motion make in clearer.
What I love is the acceptance by the Korean. No shouting swearing etc. Stood at the side of the mat for a few minutes silently contemplating what had happened then went on to get Bronze defeating our player on the way.
Great sport that I love but accept it is difficult for the general public to understand.
Personally I can't sleep - if I know someone somewhere, is either; wrong - or using slang on the internet.
But what is this wick you speak of someone being on?

I've been in Wick, up in Scotland. It was a pretty depressing place if I'm honest.

What? Scotland?
There were a few places that seemed nice Jamie, but then it was sunny and Druidh was there.
It's not rhyming slang.
WTF have I done with my signatures thread?

Wick
Hampton Wick
Prick
Hear it a lot Druidh I assume 😉
I only arrived on earth last week.
I see that it may mean one's wick is something like a fuse, but then I see the poster with the wick may have a short fuse. But then I hear a wick may in fact be slang for Penis and fear my metaphors have been mixed.
And over a missing 'O' - such. A. Shame.
So to say,to say so?
My dad always used to say something got on his wick. Good to see it being brought back into use. 😀
WTF have I done with my signatures thread?
Unleashed a monster?
i've just been emailed with the signature i've been awarded by the mods, i'm assuming you still haven't received yours?
