Why are Jamaicans so fast!?

Why do Australians swim so fast?

Btw, the US team just screwed up on the 4x100 meter relay for both men and women. Are they actually afraid to face the Jamaicans in the final?

Wouldn't you be afraid of them? I would.

Damn, those Jamaicans can run.

I would be very afraid. It is just that I don't think the US relay team has been in such a situation before, normally they're always the favorite for the title and only their own screw ups can keep them from winning the title. Could they actually have felt extra pressure which caused the failures in the series?

Or maybe sometimes it isn't that simple to pass a baton while running faster than 99.99999999% of the world's population can. Shit happens.



The dedication you show to any particular console or company is inversely proportional to the number of times you have gotten laid. If you get laid enough, even if you prefer a certain brand, you just don't give enough of a shit to argue about it on the internet.

I'm pretty sure the passing of the baton happens at around the same speed for all teams, so I really don't think it is any more difficult for the fastest teams.

Wow, the US Women's softball lost to Japan in the Gold medal game! That was a surprise :(

It's great that the US Women's Soccer team was able to win the Gold, though! After the last World Cup blow-up, it's very nice to see them come out defend their Gold medal :)




starcraft: "I and every PS3 fanboy alive are waiting for Versus more than FFXIII.
Me since the games were revealed, the fanboys since E3."

Skeeuk: "playstation 3 is the ultimate in gaming acceleration"

Shawn Johnson is beautiful and is 16yo same age as me! She should have won Gold but (argh) dunno what happened. Still amazing gymnast<3
The US owned volleyball and we won twice in a row! Misty Mays butt is HUGE!
I was gay for Michael Phelps like the rest of America and saw him own in most of his races. .001 ftw!

Done!



Today I discovered BMX is one of the most exciting sports to watch, it had been a while since I saw something so fun (not counting football and rugby, which are my favourite sports). Definitely a sport to watch the next Olympics with attention, and a woman from my country almost got a medal! She was so close...




BMX is indeed awesome. Some idiots are saying it doesn't belong at the Olympics, but it's much more interesting to watch than fucking water polo and dressage >_>

And Australia is really good at it too, so that's another plus :)



Uh oh, China... They just reported that the IOC has "found new evidence" regarding the age of 3 Chinese gymnasts and is launching an investigation into it. It could strip the Chinese of several medals if they're proven to be underage.
