Hey Coldfire

Pieter van den Hoogenband is just about to race in another final. If you’re not looking at it I’ll keep you posted.

50m freestyle as if you didn’t know.

Anybody who doesn’t what to know hit the back button.

2 golds for America. A draw. Irwin and Hall share the gold. Great race.

Van den Hoogenband got bronze I think. The commentators were too busy talking about the shared gold.

Yep Bronze.

But to cheer you up Inge de Bruijn just beat her own WR for 50m free in the semi-finals.

Thanks guys!

Was busy, but I just checked the sites for news and saw about Pieters bronze. Almost disappointing after his two earlier gold medals, but hey, still a great result!

He’s sportman of the year already, I’ll bet good money on that.

Can’t wait to see that race, tied for gold, wow. The fact that Inge de Bruijn keeps beating records doesn’t surprise me anymore :wink:

Did you guys hear that crap the American swimming coach is talking now? What a bad loser. Just because the US isn’t winning as many medals as expected doesn’t give him the right to insinuate the Dutch swimmers are on dope. Dumb bastard.

Heh - the Dutch swimmers are probably the only Dutch NOT on Dope :smiley:

They just disqualified the Gold medal winner for the walking competition. He was running. When are they going to get rid of this RIDICULOUS sport? Oooh! He ran! BAN HIM FOR LIFE!!

Fred?
Fred? hey, what are you doing to Scooby? my… God… NOOOOOOOOOO!

Bad losers seem to jump to the conclusion that having the name “De Bruijn” is a standard test for drugs these days!
