2000 - I'm So Tired

The 2000 Olympics were let down by the fact that they were on the opposite side of the world so the majority of the action happened in the middle of the night. The only things I remember watching live are Rowing finals which were on when I got home from the pub. Which was nice.

The highlights did give the impression that they were good fun though. Say what you like about the Aussies but they love a bit of sport. Here are some highlights.

1. Redgrave 5 - Pinsent 4

2. The Thorpedo show what he can do. Seemingly (according to Australians) this is the greatest swimming race ever.

3. Dunk of Death - says it all really, he jumps over a 7 foot 2 man and dunks the ball. Awesome.
