Does anyone actually have an interest in the Olympics?
I find them so tiresome. Its an old tradition invented by the Greeks BEFORE CHRIST. Yes, Jesus wasn't even counting his sheckles at that time.
Honestly, i find them just as pointless as Royalty. Let's find out teh best nation in all of teh world at anything!

I actually enjoy them a lot.
it can be very exiting if you get into it, you can see and feel the joy, the deception, the glory, the tears.. all the emotions you can imagine... and btw, some really hot chicks with rocking bodies

I lost all respect for the Olympics when I turned on the television today and saw the the Olympic Walking Race was on. Yes, a walking race. Apparently you can get disqualified for going too fast.

have you ever tried race walking for 50k? like to see how well you'd hold up in 90 percent humidity trying to keep pace with them =P
you get disqualified when you start to take a running step
