Thread: Olympics

Yeah, I took special interest in the hot swimmer dudes.

I've only watched some of the men's (yumyum) gymnastic yesterday (I think it was yesterday?). I felt so bad for them whenever they completely messed up and fell off the bar.

I said No, because im not really interested, but im might take a look here and there

I had this weird dream where spiderman was competing. He was doing the pole vault, and everyone was like 'yeah, go spiderman!', so he's running really fast with the pole in his hand, and he starts going over the pole we he slips and falls to the ground and everyone is like 'oh no! Poor Spiderman'. He was disqualified, so he tried swimming, but as soon as he got int eh water, the plug from the bottom of the pole fell out and he was sucked down the drain.

Yeah what happened today in basketball was.......embarassing. Now mabey we could learn to be less cocky.

Well, technically, we own Puerto Rico, so it isn't that bad.

I used to swim competetively myself so I'm always interested in swimming. When Michael Phelps did the 400 IM, there was no one challenging him! He was at least 5 body lengths ahead....and beating his own world record. The womens swimming was also fun to watch. Jenny Thompson could have done a little better, but she's also getting older; this is her 4th Olympic games. I watched a little bit of soccer, but I couldn't watch too much. And I'm not a fan of basketball, so I wasn't too crushed when the US basketball team lost.

EDIT: WYI, I'm so used to seeing ppl in swimsuits and speedos that I don't see a (not-) hot person in a tight suit, I just see a swimmer. Oh, and Latex caps are very uncomfortable for ppl who don't know.

Good point

Misty May and her partner are awesome.
Michael phelps is sensational right now he is kicking there butts.
Yea i swim competively, altho i didn't this summer. But i got a good freestyle and a good backstroke, decent breast, and working on the butterfly.

hmmm...you know i was thinking of joining a swim team this year

Fromage, go ahead its fun.

I had a lucid dream yesterday in which I started to fly, but then decided to do something different, so I started webswinging. That was pretty fun, until I kind of lost my lucidity and some narrator said something like: "The only problem with webswinging is that its easy to run in into walls" then, eventhough I had a good course, I kind of got thrown into a third person point of view and saw myself crash into a wall and everything faded. That certainly was fun....

Anyway, I'm pissed at how badly the mexican soccer team is playing...

I had to go with a big fat No on this one... Sports are so uninteresting to me, at least to watch on tv and stuff. The only thing I watched was some powerlifting stuff yesterday, but that was mainly because of my dads new 42" plasma tv, hehe

I have especialy enjoyed the female beach volleyball this year

I only watch women's gymnastics, volleyball, swimming, and mud wrestling.

I watched the womens gymnastics and found myself thinking they should come up with a Olympic Sport were the contestors
have a major advantage if they have big breasts. like for balance or something.. haha

i have watched a little of it this year since my family has it on the t.v and i'm to lazy to go to an other room. i was waiting for the mens rely race with the phelps on the us team with was supposed to be on at like 9:45 and didnt come on till 11:30!!! and while i was waiting i watched the womens gymnastics. they messed up soooo much, i'm not saying i could do better but for someone who has trained their whole lives for this you this they could land somthing one time.

I watched some of the volleyball and all of men's synchronized diving today, whoo! I was disappointed when Russia and America lost, but the Greeks were sooooooooo happy when they won.. it brought tears to my eyes. So, I'm happy for them. I'm such a dork.

Well... in heavy weight-lifting an extra shelf can be good advantage
And in any sport wich has point-giving judges... at least if i was the judge

That's on right now.

And yeah I tried joining the high school swim team but when I found out I had to shave my legs and show up at 5 am everyday for practice (including holidays) I was like hell no.

Course Evanecent probably likes the whole shaving his legs thing.

Don't men have the option though of wearing those full body suits instead of shaving? I know they do in the olympics, must be different for school though..

Not for us at least. We had to wear speedos.

Thats a requirement? I just always thought it was a personal option...

Yeah they care about the hair "friction" that will cut those microseconds off your time.
