In fairness, nobody has slated the sportsmen or women.

Hoards ?

I think it's 1 Brit who has been caught in the Olympics - a judo competitor in 1998.

He's talking internationally. Still, they're in a minority in the grander scheme of things - but hey, that won't stop a good generalised bashing of the rest of the athletes.

Ah right - well internationally the amount caught with a positive test is well under 1% of all athletes at the games.

More get caught in Tour de france, NFL etc

Even football has had its drug problems.

Why don't you stop trolling this thread then with your own s.hity tripe, then perhaps I wouldn't have to call a spade a spade. But seeing as you responded, the cap obviously fits 'Andy-I-run-a-pub-with-progressive-views-G'

:laugh:  trolling the thread? what? i had the nerve to offer a point of view that didn't correspond with the 'the olympics are the best thing ever and we should all be so proud' sentiments and so now i'm a cultural marxist that wants to show his disgust at the olympics and britains role in it, and that this also happens to be a 'fashionable' point of view?

:laugh:  :laugh:  seriously, think about for a minute. maybe even re-read the thread.

I read your attention seeking drivel Andy, you're just too cool to enjoy the Olympics, you'd rather try and be a 'tad' controversial and offer up your 'cool-progressive' views. f.uck, I wish I was like you:

stop being such a fúcking pleb, will you? stop falling into the trap of not thinking about things properly so that you can fit everything and everybody into your half arsed wikipedia fuelled social theories.

if you had taken the chance to actually think, or even ask me, about my exact views on the olympics - my personal views, and not anybody else's - you would have saved yourself from looking like a total tool once again. you are so far wide of the mark on what i actually think - again - that its untrue, but as usual its easier for you to concoct some *****. if it makes you feel better that you are trying to save the world from the evil threat of 'cultural marxism' and 'political correctness' and 'liberalism' then good for you.

Wikipedia social theories  :laugh: I've hit a nerve here and you've obviously found it too close for comfort so you're getting on your righteous horse again. If you want to carry on whinging to me why you are so cool, do it via pm, if not f.uck off and stop trying to derail the thread you bean.

you couldn't hit a nerve if you were standing 2mm away from it. don't flatter yourself.

i actually made a decent contribution to the thread, at least for anyone who had half a brain. that its ok for anyone to express a view that isn't 100% in support of the games. surely someone who believes in the right to express one's opinions without the 'thought police' coming down on you like a ton of bricks would agree with that, no? i then go on to defend that point and to say that i'm not all that bothered about the olympics (which i'm not) and that there is plenty of unsavoury stuff surrounding the games (which there is). nothing trolling there is there? or overly fashionable? or culturally marxist? i'm not preventing anyone else from celebrating the olympics am i? am i saying that the athletes don't deserve to compete or celebrate their victories? no, didn't think so.

but once again, you like to pounce on my posts because you imagine me as some wannabe super cool, lefty liberal and that offends your own theories that you so often like to push down peoples' throats. talk about trolling! and once again you are a million miles wide of the mark as to what my actual view point is.
