It will steal the show,whatever happens

Semenya, what a beast.
Perhaps for the wrong reasons.
Controversy will surround it no doubt.
Joana Jozwik looks pretty good
Lol those blondes have no chance.
Of that there is no doubt , did you see all the cameras there.
gold gold gold
The other athletes not exactly enthusiastic in their congratulations.
lol, that was not fair. at all. But hey-ho.
Thank god Mo is up soon. With missus away, getting up early to feed the cat is killing me.
Her pecs are seriously impressive
She's right up your street.
all those svelte runners, who looks like female runners and the there is Semenya.
Yes
The commentators also trying their best to be diplomatic.
But there's nothing she can really do but race.
Melissa Bishop is very pretty
Good race
Good race
No doubt, but I dont think she should be racing there.
Well, rumour has it that the other medalists are both intersex too, so it's a level playing field of sorts.
It's a tough one. She has been treated horribly and has done nothing wrong. Was a weird contrast between the competitors in that race though.
This is the first Olympics I have seen something else presented along with the medal, is it just for Rio or something new?
oh noes, 3 of them haven't got their hand over their heart..
Yeah, definitely. You could tell the top the racers were either a) heavily abusing steroids or, b) intersex. They didnt do anything wrong as you say, but something about the whole affair seems off to me. And you could tell the other athletes in the race werent exactly happy about it either.
Came in just as the women's 800 started, during and after the race the announcers said little or nothing about the "controversy". Thankfully.
Disagree, It's a stupid controversy. It's her body, its natural
First U.S. gold in the men's 1500 since 1908. The guys family understandably went nuts.
Yes I think they did.
What can they say ? they did comment about some tests she has had, but if they say mucg more they would be on very thin ice.
Come on Mo.
It being natural isnt the issue is it?
Go Mo, go Mo, don't make Homer shout out D'oh!
post of the night.I know what you mean, but the NY Times article was interesting. Paula Radcliffe dissed Semenya, but PR has the world record in the marathon, which is 10% slower than the men's record.
Semenya has no WR and her best is 12% slower than the men. Ergo Paula is the bigger freak?
Farah building it up now.
Mo makes his move.
The Ethiopians have tailed off now, their plan did not work then..
Go Mo, don't be slow, if you lose it's worse than a blow...from Semenya.
Lol the white Brit with the blow dryed hair do.
