Troopr-Undr-Fir Posted August 19, 2004 Share Posted August 19, 2004 Originally posted by Astrotoy7 MORE FEMALE BEACH VOLLEYBALL ! Not sure if I agree with you. Thems girlies are a little, no a lot too buff for me. I like a fit women, but when you start taking male hormones... I think it's gone too far Now on the otehr hand, the indoor volley ball players (for some odd reason) slim and sleek, and strong as well. Very attractive. plus all the grunting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lady Jedi Posted August 27, 2004 Share Posted August 27, 2004 Originally posted by GonkH8er Australia owns the pool... you guys can have all the other sports well maybe they do, but as I recall USA Kicked some major Aussie @$$ in the men's 4 x 200 relay. That was the most awesome race ever! Hands down. And the men's 4 x 100 medley was almost as cool. 2 broken records baby! btw Ian Thorpe absolutely ROCKS!! Woot!

toms Posted August 27, 2004 Share Posted August 27, 2004 i've actually got a bit into it as the finals have arrived. The gymnastics was fun, as the judging was terrible (rewarding those who played safe and penalising those who did amazing tricks but messed up their landings). Then on the mens high bar one guy did a dull routine and went into first, the next guy did an amazing one and only got third. THe crowd went mad and started booing and standing up and putting their thumbs down. They held up proceedings for 10 or so minutes. Eventually the judges changed the score (a bit) and the guy who was cheated got them to quieten down. It was great... it was like gladiator... (except the guy didn't get killed at the end...) We are failing on the track, but ruling on bikes and the open water... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arreat Posted August 29, 2004 Share Posted August 29, 2004 I can't believe USA is doing so crappy at basketball! They lost to Argentina!! I can't believe it how could they lose to people who play soccer?! Oh well... I think they're paying the NBA players just a tad too much. . I shouldn't be complaining, we've less than 5 golds.

Lady Jedi Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 i can't believe that they didn't give the guy a few extra seconds to catch up. I mean, you'd think there were some rules about that. God knows they have em for everything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, you'd think there were some rules about that. God knows they have em for everything else. They use the times that people come out with to avoid controversy over "Why did XXXX get so much extra time?" and "Who determines the extra score?". Unfair sometimes, but much less arguing. Usually.

Apparently the chap has been given a 1 year suspended sentence ... which isnt much of a punishment really, considering all he has to do is avoid making similar trouble in Greece for a year I hope they couldve given him a huge a$$ fine, and when he couldnt pay up, to throw him in a Brazilian jail, seeing that runner came from Brazil.... that'd fix that freak up nicely mtfbwya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodgehtis.50 Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 What I can not understand about the Olympics is that some sports, that really don't have much to do with the old greek sportsmanship are "allowed" to be part of the Olympic games nowadays and others are not! For example why is fencing an olympic sport while Kendo is not? I believe many many more people in the world exercise Kendo and far less have somehting to do with fencing.. I'm doing Kendo and I'm offended ! Anyway it is amazing what some humans are able to do. But then I switch the channel and see the white, fat mommies complaining about some working-class alcoholic who left her and her child and I think: Yup, that's the real us ! The feeling of great achievement is gone, my stomac in revolting and the thought of a campaign against huma kind is returning to my mind ^_^. anyway Go Olympics 2004 Go !!
