They can't call themselves "Olympic Champion" as neither actually won ! Best they should have had was a silver medal each, but that would still have been a cop out. There should have been a "jump off" to decide the winner. Cheers. must just be me then...i thought that was nice .... over the years there have been other sports where gold silver and bronze have been shared....usually in events that have tied on time.....i see no difference with this... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

After much soul searching I now identify as a crane operator....bring it on! I thought it was that Eddie Hall geezer when i first tuned in ....then it occurred to me,whats stopping an Eddie Hall type identifying as a bird for a couple of weeks while the Olympics is on....maybe an Olympic Gold just doesnt carry the same distinction anymore. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
