OLYMPICS!

That's hardly a spoiler this is big news.  I was about to post up the same thing.  You can pretty much expect people to be discussing the wins here shortly after they happen.   

Some of the more tech advanced have a thing called a DVR. We aren't slaves to the schedule.

After tonight, I'll be lucky to see anything.  Going to be out of town for work for the next 10 days, and with 125 hrs of work planned over the next 10 days, I doubt I'll be watching much tv.

Guess I'll just have to avoid this thread.

It kinda is since I'm interested in males instead of females. Now, if I was bi.......

USA women's gymnastics need to cool down!! 

[jdubbs32584]

Man, the more I stare at the girl you posted up earlier thats a US boxer, the more I consider it....

I just watched the US women's gymnastics team.


Shawn Johnson and Nastia Liukin seem like they might do pretty good, not too sure for the rest of the team. Yes. I watch the women's gymnastics...and yes....they are all way too young looking to find attractive. 16 year old girls who look like they're 12 (or in the case of china, 12 year old girls who look like they are 8  )

Watched some swiming too...Phelps kicked some ass yesterday, and then held back a bit earlier today when I watched.


Watched a little badminton too!  Thats all I have to say about that one

There's one gymnast who kind of reminds me of Jessica Simpson.  She was one who stepped out on floor exercise.

The high school I was working at up in Seattle had a badminton team.

Ok, I watched some of the girls.  They look like they're 8.

Even I can't ignore that, especially when the announcers are discussing how they don't look 16 and people are complaining about that, but the Chinese have coughed up ID's for all these girls stating they're legal competition age.

Uh huh.

Riiiiiigght.

Women's diving though, now that's what I'm talkin' about.

rawr

[Kopfjager]

Is it true that Badminton is now an Olympic sport?   

Did I hear that correctly last night during the parade of countries?

If that is true, I fear the imminent fall of civilization . . .

Since 1992. Where you been ?

Looks like the US is behind in gold medals, but first in overall medals.

The relay swim was indeed awesome.  I haven't been that worked over swimming in quite some time (like ever  ).  make the beast with two backs the Frenchy bastards.

As for medals, China is going to win the most and probably the most golds.

[Super T.I.B]

Can some one please explain the appeal of the olympics?

What a total waste of time and Money, 54 billion dollars so some people can play sport for 16 days

I'm sorry I just can't understand what all the carry on is about, We had it here in 2000 and I wanted to leave the make the beast with two backsing country because you could not escape the the hype and bullshit.

Is it wrong that I just don't care?

+1.

I can swim from here to there faster than you! I can run from here to there faster than you! I can jump this sandhole longer than you! I can throw this lump of lead longer than you!

If I am ever caught in quicksand and there is an invading army who only have sticks, I hope there is a long jumper and a shot putter who will help me out.

awesome last leg of that relay. I thought it was all over. Couldn't believe that comeback!


BTW---they just said the US/China basketball game was the most watched game of all time. over 1 BILLION people watched the game 


I guess we here on the DMF aren't the only people who watch the olympics
