Come on, if you have a 84m hammer throw, it’s not boring. That’s a ridiculous mark. 

It's beyond impressive, but it's hard enough to focus on three simultaneous streams, so then I'll start paying attention less to the one where the fight for gold is basically decided  

[Federer91 2,721]

Not that impressed with the 800 m line-up so far. Keely should be able to "keel-it" in the final 

[heywoodu 14,842]

Tie for high jump bronze. Pray to the heavens we won't have that for gold.

[Monzanator 4,442]

Shared bronze with only 1.95 for Patterson & Gerashchenko. Very poor level behind the two obvious suspects.

Oh no, I'm now entirely aboard the hypetrain. Destination, podium!

Another shared medal

Hungarian commentators are saying that the men's hammer throw is done for today. Well, it's not just for today, it's probably also for LA and for Brisbane. This will be a decade long, Bolt level dominance.

Agree, they should make them re-jump. Enough with this shared medal nonsense. Athletics should tighten their act.

Some suspense would be more olympic style.
