As it looks now, China has such a large lead on the US for gold medals that we will not catch them. However, since I hate the idea of china beating us at anything, I am invoking a new rule for counting gold medals. Since they will give out like 20 gold medals to the US basketball team, then I am counting all of those individually and not just as one for the team. So it is the total number of gold medals given to individuals that we will be counting, not just the number per event. That being the case, we will more than likely destroy china in the gold count.
Put that in your pipe and smoke it China. |

I just wanna know why "equestrian" events are considered Olympic material? Notice most of the competitors seem to be well "past their prime" in respect to any sort of physical fitness?  |

Do you know about the Jamaican Bob Sled Team? This is a no-shitter you might actually appreciate. |

| Hey- that Jamaican Bobsled deal is real- they even made a movie about it in 1993- "Cool Runnings" starring the late John Candy. |

I saw the movie, not bad all kidding aside.  |

'Ef the Chinese. Dirty commie bastards. Screw you little guys that can't make shirts in a consistent size. No mo gold for you- you must've had a tooofor before you come in.
That help?  |

Yeah! I have a problem with the Chinese too. They don't copy
enough German airguns with good triggers. |

My main problem with them is that this whole olympics has been done up just to convince the chinese people that they are a worthy 1st world 21st century nation. I would say that they are trying to convince the rest of the world of this, but everyone knows the truth about them. Like a true evil empire, they primarily strive to bamboozle their own people.
Yes, you can beat your divers and gymnasts with bamboo sticks from the age of 4 and they will end up being good athletes and keep their toes straight.
Those bastards keep winning golds or win silvers whenever we win golds, so we'll be lucky to even keep ahead in the all around medal count.
But I am gaining a whole new appreciation for chinese women...  |
