If the cycling and rowing teams had been countries in their own right; when Chris Hoy crossed the line this afternoon, the cycling team would have been 8th on the overall medal table and the rowing team 12th. And Team GB would still have been 3rd. More great performances today.

Some great stories too - Laura Trott, born with a collapsed lung, winning double gold; and Chris Mears, given a 5% chance of living after a ruptured spleen three years ago, making it to a diving final. Makes you realise how average most of our over-paid, over-hyped footballers are. The money's going to the wrong places.
