Are a bit, erm, tight? They don’t leave a lot to the imagination. I can see all of their thingies Smile

Gross. They're just doing their jobs...

wijjy · 02/03/2018 20:52

If I was jumping arse first into sand, I would want something tight.

RedRedDogsBeg · 02/03/2018 20:54

its sport....sport clothing is designed that way. why would they want baggy clothing getting in the way?

MumGoneMild · 02/03/2018 20:56

Do you mean penis?

WhatToDoAboutThis2017 · 02/03/2018 20:56

You know they’re specifically designed that way, right? To make sure they have the best chance of winning and absolutely nothing holds them back?

Nicknacky · 02/03/2018 20:58

Why would this even bother you?

ForlornWanderer · 02/03/2018 21:01

The women wear similarly tight clothes. Does it bother you you can practically see their, erm, boobies?

Ubercorn87 · 02/03/2018 21:02

You weird pervert.

RuskBaby · 02/03/2018 21:03

Try watching the rest of the athletics, or maybe don’t if you are too fragile.

YouTheCat · 02/03/2018 21:03

this Grin

AnyFucker · 02/03/2018 21:06

Well, you are not wrong.

Except for the "thingies" part. That is quite wrong.

73kittycat73 · 02/03/2018 21:38

Why are you all jumping on the poor OP? She just sounds surprised and wanted to share. What's wrong with that? (Incidently I now want to put on BB2. Wink )

ForalltheSaints · 02/03/2018 21:38

This is not new. As long as the athletes have a choice not to wear such clothing I am OK with it.

birdling · 02/03/2018 22:06

I (mis)read the title and thought that the athletes were wearing shorts and long jumpers Grin

SaucyJack · 02/03/2018 22:08

Are we not allowed to look at dicks any more then?

Jebus. Is there anything left worth getting out of bed for?

Fifthtimelucky · 03/03/2018 07:38

I haven't been watching, but I do remember many years back that Linford Christie's outfits didn't leave much to the imagination!

BikeRunSki · 03/03/2018 07:43

Please never watch road cycling.

PurpleDaisies · 03/03/2018 07:45

Do you think they’re wearing those outfits to show off? They’re designed to be the best aerodynamically. It’s about who can jump the furthest, not displaying their ducks.

Slartybartfast · 03/03/2018 07:47

It's was all about Linford's lunch box!

I know what you mean op, I do have to resist the temptation for my ears to fall on their not so privates

Slartybartfast · 03/03/2018 07:48

Slartybartfast · 03/03/2018 07:48

Those long jumpers were fantastic, so happy, what an absolute great attitude they had Grin
