suuure, now seriously...you may find breaking cooler and i'm not the one to disagree but from an athletic point of view it does, it really does.

 

 

anyway, after watching lots of that shit in the morning, heres my olympic conclusion of the day:

 

1.1: Archery rocks

1.2: Hitting the target must be fuckin difficult

Shit i forgot about archery.. when i lived out in the country for a couple years during the late 90s, i was amazed at how accurate the turkey hunters were.. The turkey is the hardest LEGAL game animal to hit with a bow.. They have incredible eyesite and can sense human movement at like a 1/4 mile.. these birds are sick as fuck..

 

Anyways, i was watching a few hunters through some binoculars on thanksgiving one year and these fools were clocking these birds, heart shots, all the time from far as hell..

 

 

Im sorry that i had to compare an olympic event to something else again..

 

im very ADD..

That chinese motherfucker that vaulted just right now spun roughly 6 billion times in mid air. Insane.

 

 

In related news, my grandma got my little brother a 12' trampoline for his birthday. So psyched, I've wanted one since I was 5. I'm going to fucking conquer that shit.

Seriously, rings are by far the most physically (as in "requires strength" impressive event in gymnastics to me. Most of the other ones rely heavily on momentum... not rings (except the dismount). Just brute strength.

Fuck yes, Poland! I watched the Polish woman grab gold in swimming today and got a little choked up. That's awesome, especially since Poland usually settles for silver medals if anything. I'm half Polish.

That come back paul haan did in the men's all around individual gymnastics is the sickest shit I've seen in sports. That guy deserves every bit of that gold medal after screwing up so bad on that vault and the mustering up and nailing the next two rotations. That whole event had me on the edge of my seat. Shit was dope, so try and catch a re-broadcast.

 

The women's 200m freestyle relay was also pretty dope.

^^agreed.

I just happened to turn the tv on right before that vault last night. I was like...damn...he's done now. I never thought I'd hear myself say this....but that dudes high bar routine was pretty bad ass. That part were he let go of the bar like three times in a row...damn. definitely bad ass to see him come back and nail them like that.

Hell yes, we beat Angola 83-80. That was close... the office was completely paralyzed for those last 5 minutes of the game.

Wait, don’t they test for marijuana in the Olympics? They do! So why don’t they test the USA Team for that shit?

 

I can’t believe that Canada got disqualified in rowing yesterday because their paddle came near the South African’s boat and the South Africans just stopped paddling and started crying. Rowing is our strong sport.

 

As for baseball – Canada is what now? 4 and 0~! Hell yeah! Hey, it’s funny how the Greek baseball team is allowed to get anyone with Greek blood in their bloodline to play for them. Funny, but I guess it’s appropriate. They’re not a bad team at all.

haha, fuck yeah...in my 25 years in athens i've never heard of someone playing or even being interested in baseball...we got all kinds of jokes concerning what to do with the field after the games our out. Luckily lots of greeks live in countries where baseball is popular so we managed to have a team.
