David Coleman sadly died today. A true legend. RIP
Just a few of his classics:
That's the fastest time ever run - but it's not as fast as the world record
A truly international field, no Britons involved.
The Republic of China - back in the Olympic Games for the first time
And the line up for the final of the Women's 400 metres hurdles includes three Russians, two East Germans, a Pole, a Swede and a Frenchman.
And here's Moses Kiptanui - the 19-year-old Kenyan who turned 20 a few weeks ago
He just can't believe what's not happening to him
Morcelli has the four fastest 1,500 metre times ever. And all those times are at 1,500 metres
In a moment we hope to see the pole vault over the satellite
He is even smaller in real life than he is on the track
One of the great unknown champions, because very little is known about him
It's gold or nothing...and it's nothing. He comes away with the silver medal
This could be a repeat of what will happen in the European games next week
He's 31 this year. Last year he was 30
Here are some names to look forward to, perhaps in the future"
Ingrid Kristiansen has smashed the world record, running the 5,000 metres in 14:58:09. Truly amazing. Incidentally this is a personal best for Ingrid Kristiansen
There is Brendan Foster, by himself with 20,000 people
The Republic of China - back in the Olympic Games for the first time
We estimate, and this isn't an estimation, that Greta Waitz is 80 seconds behind
He is accelerating all the time. The last lap was run in 64 seconds and the one before in 62".
There's going to be a real ding-dong when the bell goes

Statistically, 6 out of 7 dwarves are not happy.

Yep remarkable.Science adjusts it’s beliefs based on what’s observed.
Faith is the denial of observation so that Belief can be preserved0 -
Good job I didn't pick him for my 2014 Celebrity Death Pool :P"Arran, you are like the Tony Benn of smut. You have never diluted your depravity and always stand by your beliefs. You have my respect sir and your wife my pity"
