Guest Finn Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 I'll watch some of it...like the track and field, swimming and gymnastics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJL Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 I'm a racist, a homophobe, and opposed to illegal drug usage. So every 4 years when people gather to celebrate these things I choose not to watch. However, I am a big NFL fan, so I guess I'm a hypocrite as well.

Michiganbowhunter_SQ2 Posted August 11, 2008 Report Share Posted August 11, 2008 Anyone watching right now? USA just won the mens swimming 400m relay. France had been talking smack, one guy said "we are going to smash the americans, thats what we're here for." France had a pretty good lead with the last 2 guys, but the final guy for the USA came back and won in the last few meters. oh, and USA mens basketball put a hurtin on Yao and China earlier today :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was embarrassed just sitting in my living room.:o:o LOL, yeah I seen that...she was freakin out. I had never seen fencing before, it wasn't what I expected . AS for the relay, the top 5 teams beat the previous world record . Was a great race, they just showed it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Born4it Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 I watch it a fair amount. I'm so competitive, if I have a reason to root for someone I'll do it. The three main things I'll be interested in are the basketball, track, and swimming teams. Go USA! Ryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckbuster11 Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 Got to be honest here, I've got pretty much no interest in Phelps anymore. How dumb do they think we are? They guy is good yes, but he is shattering world records literally every time he gets into the pool. Either he is on something, or those new speedo's are giving everybody way to much of an advantage and it's spoiling his accomplishments in my opinion.

craig mack Posted August 16, 2008 Report Share Posted August 16, 2008 Yeah, and Bonds had the "perfect swing" until we found out he was all jacked up on beef roids. I heard that they have to take a whizz quiz like everyday so I would hope that he wouldnt think that he could get over on them. Besides did you hear about the guy who lost his gold medal in air pistol shooting for doping!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
