The toffs favourite event the Equestrian gave TEAM FREEBIE a silver medal.
Horses were strapped up, mounted and charged with horrific pace at various obstacles, fences, poles and ditches..
A truly embarrassing spectacle in 'Royal' Greenwich that only a ghoul could truly appreciate.
There was a sickening article in the Times rag today by a loathsome individual called Simon Barnes.
Here are a few vomit-inducing snippets....
''wondrous feats of speed and courage''
Croydonclasswar says - not by these humans.
''made us horsy types more amazed than ever at the generosity of these animals''
CCW says - not as generous as foxes or bulls.
(the deafening noise of the crowd was) ''not exactly what the horses are used to - but amazingly - they just got on with it.''
CCW says - amazing that these horses kept running down those vertical slopes with their noses practically scraping the turf...i mean..they could easily have just stopped in mid air.
Mary King a rancid 52 year old british twit of a rider was singled out for special praise although quite why remains a mystery. According to the Times hack, her ruthless ability to assault and humiliate a beautiful and defenceless animal was aided in part by the...
'tidal wave of love that flowed towards her''
CCW says - ??????
As for the idiot 'Royal' Zara Phillips, he notes that she was 'not everybody's first choice as a member of the Great Britain team''
CCW considers her the very last choice as member of the human race, nevermind Team Freebie
''the disapointment was William Fox-Pitt....''
CCW says - couldnt have put it better ourselves.
'Fox- Pitt's horse Lionheart faded badly''
CCW says - do you mean the exhausted horse stopped being generous ??
CCW also says -
'Lionheart fading badly' is a fitting metaphor for Team Freebie itself..... its clutch of celebrity sportsmen and women still without a gold medal and probably wishing they'd spent less time endorsing every worthless product offered to them by every worthless company over the last four years'
Finally with a few words left to fill Simon Barnes typed (presumably with his thumbs) ...
''it was a great day...the glory of it all... Horses right at the heart of the games, just as it should be.''
CCW says - it was a truly nasty and odious day.
If you had conducted a random straw poll of people across the planet and asked them to name 50 Olympic events...its doubtfull that any would have mentioned equestrian''
What is at the heart of these games is a dirty great vacuous hole right in the middle of the union jack.
And its growing larger with every second....
NO event involving horses is sport !!!!!
