Re: Gnashing of teeth
I have watched some of it, especially a final with a "TEAM GB in it, and have immensely proud, not only for the dedication and suffering ( physical) they have endured to get where they are.
I also think that with TEAM G.B. third, ( at the time of typing) in the medal table is a great achievement and I congratulate all who have attained the level of medals won.
My ONLY critisism would be when a commentator / pundit says --- "Ohhh he /shes only come fourth, I was expecting more of them" --- I would have thought anyone with the ability to represent their country at at an Olympic event, no matter which country its played in, is not going to give of their best on the day, why not just say say ---- "Hard luck, bloody good effort, but there's always tomorrow" or something similar.
