Can't believe there aren't more posts here about the Olympics...
Carly Patterson won the women's all-around gold medal in gymnastics and beat the Russian BEOTCH. And Palu Hamm won the men's all-around gold in an incredible comeback.

I got back last night after a ride, sat down in the lounger with a brew, and saw Paul's come back. I tuned in and saw him have that bad landing on the vault, he droped to like 12th place or something. The announcers were saying he had no chance of a medal at all! Then he comes back, I was very proud for him, awsome! Thanks for bringing it up.

I still think the Olympics are a joke. I'm sorry. Any event that passes out 100 condoms per athlete and allows transgender athletes to compete is nothing close to an "honorable" event, IMO....

Caught the mens gymnastics last night also. When did they switch the vault device (horse?) to the upside down urinal/athletic supporter/cup looking thing. Was is after this guy? SLAM! (http://www.punchbaby.com/media/NewClips/olympics/BRONZE.MPG)

Been real busy all week, so missed a lot of the events :notam: but I try to catch up on sportscenter :rolleyes:
The Americans are doing great so far :D
There are a lot of great athletes out there competing, I have no problem with them, it is only every 4 years :squiggle:

I saw that too. I was wondering why the guys were vaulting off of the deal that they usually get their talcum powder out of?

Sweet. The line of people who agree with you starts around the corner and to the left. Just a warning; bring a lunch because it'll be a while 'til you get to the front. Thanks for coming. :p
