Fuck the olmpics

What those girls/women did with those ribbons and balls was amazing. I want softball back tho. The US women won more medals than the men. Something around 65 % of them. I enjoyed the Olympics,even tho I only have rabbit ears.( On my TV ,I mean.)

 

On Time Warner Cable, there were times when I had access to as many as six different events at once! :willy_nilly: How was anybody supposed to figure out what to watch?

This week, I'll be poking around online to look into some of the things I missed. Due to my unfortunate habits of working, eating, and sleeping, I think I missed more than I saw.

 

fuck the olympics

 

did someone say they were over? thank god. or diversity. or reality, or the universe or whatever.

Women are still second class citizens in many countries so its no surprise that womens sports dosnt have as strong of a showing around the world.

 

The day a woman can beat Usain Bolt in the 100 meter dash, dunk a basketball like Blake Griffin, or toss a football like Tom Brady, I’ll take an interest in women’s sports beyond watching beach volleyball :2thumbsup:

yeah... it's not a sexism thing

women just aren't as good as sports.

sport is entertainment

not obligation to its audience.

 

i mean even if women won more medals in the u.s

they were competing against other women.

i don't see what that has to do with comparable standard.

 

I'm more of a winter olympics fan myself.

 

Why not?

 

dear god..is that clip real??

 

my point had nothing to do with watching it. i couldnt care less how popular womens sport is. i was explaining why western women are more likely to medal than women in more oppressed countries.

 

I have no idea, it is horrifying however.

 

I celebrate culture just not the pride of it.

 

If you watched the Olympics and have a sense of humor, you have to love this:

There's just too damn many pics on there. I gave up after about 300.

You know it has to suck to be her right now.

 

My favourite one so far is the Listerine version.

 

She actually has had a fantastic reaction to it and has shown the world what a good sense of humor she has.



Her and her teammates on the Colbert Report. lol
