Summer Olympics 2008

[number18]

Yay,

Two golds for Team GB so far.

Rebecca Adlington won gold in the swimming women's 400 metres freestyle, not forgetting her teamate Jo Jackson who took bronze in the same final.

And Nicole Cooke with an awesome finish in the cycling womens road race to win gold.

Very proud of the girls !!!

I watched mens gymnastics tonight and holy shit! Those guys are insane, especially that Justin Spring guy.

I care little about the Olympics. And if no one knew the countries of the athletes, most wouldn't care either.
The athletes aren't in it for their countries; but they have to say they are to secure funding/sponsorship. They are in it for themselves; just as they should be.

I like that it brings people together. That's cool. Other then that? Mucho bordo.

I did like the story about the 33 yr old mom on the german gymnastic team.

That was a terrific story. Nearly brought tears to my eyes. I'm gonna be rooting for her in the vault individual finals.

On the subject, my hottest gymnast is the USA's Chellsie Memmel, my fellow Wisconsinite. She's only competing in the uneven bars due to an injury. Unfortunately she fell on her bars routine in the prelims, so won't be in the final for that event.

I like Alicia Sacramone for all-around hotness and Shawn Johnson too for her sexy legs, but Chellsie just does it for me. She's a little more voluptuous than the others. Here's a good pic of her:

Jason Lezak is awesome!

That was an awesome final yesterday! Lezak was fucking ON FIRE in that anchor leg!

I think the Olympics is the most boring pile of crap ever. A load of stupid, obscure sports that no-one cares about. Even the Olympics football is crap. All under-23's so it's not the proper national teams so even if they win gold, who cares? The only Olympic sport I'd have even the slightest interest in is the boxing, but the way it's judged is, IMO, ridiculous. I can't wait for this rubbish to be off the telly.

Please, let track & field start right now.

And you are psychic? :dunno:

You know what they say about opinions...

Well I'm a pervert too, then! There's something about tiny, super flexible girls in skin tight leotards, which usually show great camel toes, jumping around and showing off how flexible they are. I'd LOVE to get my hands on one of them! :banana:

Same here!I love me some women's volleyball,whereever it's on the beach or indoors!:glugglug:

So are you officially a Wisconsinite, or are you still an expatriated Jerseyite?

Just pick up your remote and change the channel dude.

Do agree with you about the judging in Olympic Boxing. Atrocious! In many cases it's blatantly biased.

In terms of sheer cuteness, Shawn Johnson can't be beat.

Camel toe, anyone?

4x Gold for Germany today!!!!!!

Women's soccer looks like it's going to get good. Canada vs. America, should be a good game (Despite the fact we probably won't win). Will be easy on the eyes, for sure.

Don't worry !

Canada vs USA is the ultimate game, much better than seeing Michael Phelps and company !

Canada is pushing to the corner and the Team Canada Women Soccer carry the weight of 31 million Canadian's dreams and hopes and I just hope they win one for all of us !

 

[titsrock]

^^
I think it will be a great game, actually...and I think the U.S. will come strong and win. Canada looked pretty good against China. They've got some tall forwards (and nicely sports bra'd and thonged out I might add!)

I'm hoping the USA's ARod (Amy Rodriguez) goes wild and scores 2!

Why is it better than watching Michael Phelps and the other swimmers? Because you know that any Canadian going against him would get his ass handed to him by Phelps?

 

[member979979]

I wonder, all the money China has spent for the Olympics, will they even break even from the tourists revenue?

Just right lol it's the best by miles It's far more exciting than most of the other Olympics.
