This is the only thing I care about regarding the Olympics:

:D

Bleeder · 07-29-2012, 04:08 PM

lol nah, he's too busy working on mix tapes and tweeting advice about brushing your teeth in circular motions. Seriously.

I don't have Twitter, but sometimes I'll Google "metta world peace twitter", read, and laugh. He's being boring today though :(

Sick performance from team GB in the Football. It's becoming easier to accept them as a legitimate team now. I'm jealous that my boss is going to the match against Uruguay on Wednesday.

I'm busy with my own humanitarian project, tbh. Thinking about changing my name to Mota World Peace.

Which game was that? GB - Senegal, GB - UAE, or Senegal - Uruguay?

Alejandro4891 · 07-29-2012, 05:00 PM

yeah i just realized what i wrote made no sense, i was referring to senegal vs uruguay.

Goaters · 07-29-2012, 05:05 PM

The last 10 or so minutes of the Spanish game was messy as shit, their frustrations go the better of them and Honduras were milking the clock when ever possible. Dumb

The only thing I've really watched so far is the Judo. North Korean bitch went into full tears of nationalism mode when she won.

Well she was fighting against Cuba in the finals, so Communism was gonna win no matter what. I'm sure Dear Leader was awfully proud.

Cloaca · 07-30-2012, 04:42 AM

Yeah, I think she just ippon-ed her way out of the salt mines.

way too many sports i'm not interested in are being broadcast today, i'm watching judo online right now.

DrippingInsanity · 07-30-2012, 09:54 AM

When I heard that speed walking or "racewalking" is part of the olympics, all I could think of is this:

i have actually been trying to watch more of the sports that you never see on tv here. i've been saying "fuck soccer, i'm gonna watch rowing!" i'm just trying to watch as much as possible, though my flash player crashes every couple of minutes :/

Alejandro4891 · 07-30-2012, 01:22 PM

soccer's one of the sports i've really been enjoying this summer, especially because of the men and women's soccer at the olympics and the euro cup that just passed. i always say i'm going to get into the leagues that go on during the year, but that's a bit of a hassle.

Wow, so this Jordyn Wieber (USA gymnastics) thing is nuts. They keep showing her crying and talking about her dreams being crushed. I commend NBC for their furthering the sadness and depression of a 17 year old girl by repeatedly talking about it. Well done, folks.

Destinee hooker makes me proud to be an American.

ratsapprentice · 07-30-2012, 01:59 PM

Can't wait for Sevens in Rio.

Oh shiii I saw some of the Japanese team training for that in the park. I thought it was just some faggy warm up they were doing before they started running.

So men's field hockey is a thing.

Am I alone in being shocked at this?
