Was it something to the effect of:
"Where's the Bob Cousy...the Kevin McHale of this team...and how can they wear those baggy shorts. Basketball shorts should come 1/4 of inch down your thigh...and what happened to team unity?? I remember when everyone would get a Johnny Unitas cut to show unison."
Somehow, I get the feeling that Blowhard Basketball is similar to watching the team in the movie Pleasantville

Fuck all those people who walk really fast and pretend like they're not running.
I just endured the 20k race walk marathon as a viewer. Where's my medal?
Ok you've been walking really fast for 19.9 kilometers and you're 10 meters behind the exhausted leader. Just 30 seconds of sprinting and you'll overtake the daily leader to win the gold.You could,.... but you can't.
No. You can't. Not because you're tired but because if you ran(superwalked) any faster you'd be running. Walk like a homosexual as fast as you can and hope for the best. You're the champ.
Fuck speedwalking.

I've never understood the concept of speed walking.
Not only does it look stupid, but it can't be much less strenuous than a light jog. Of course, I guess one is more on the lower back and knees, where the other is more hips.
But still...just don't get it.
Yet every time I go to the park to run, there's always a bunch of people who do it religiously.

i realize you are a constant doubter... but she has kept nothing but a strictly herbal regime.
she even took ... demanded to take... extra doping tests throughout the time in Beijing.
and passed them all with flying colors.
to her merit... she also just alerted the judges to a swimmer not on the blocks yet.
she did NOT have to do that.
questioning Torres ... is just ridiculous.
and she got the 1st spot in the Semi's.
her experience, training, and determination has gotten her here.
i certainly hope she wins!!

As they say, we'll have to agree to disagree on this. There are certainly a lot of "designer drugs" that the anti-doping agencies have not caught up to yet, and if I'm taking something I know the tests can't catch, I'd certainly make a show of demanding tests. I mean, Marion Jones never failed a test either.
It's just that the story annoys me because if a Chinese swimmer, say, had the same story of suddenly returning to championship form at 41 after missing 2 Olympics, people would be howling "Cheater!" at her.
Oh well, enough of that. Time for Tyson Homosexual to run.

Actually, I think most people are in your boat, and are skeptical of all Olympic athletes, because international competitions have such a history of doping scandals.
I've always been of the mind, though, that until something is proven, I give the athletes the benefit of the doubt.
Any thing that could be touted as a 'great accomplishment' these days is met with ridiculous scrutiny from all sorts of different avenues.

Alot of people have come out overly talking about how they are clean cause they knew at the time there was no test for what they were taking. I know they will keep samples and all that, but none of that shit would "prove" anything to me.

I know this is Michael's night, but I just had to brag on my alma mater a bit.
Former Auburn swimmers won three more medals tonight in two different events, including two gold medals.
Zimbabwe's Kirsty Coventry was first to pick up a gold medal as she took first in the 200-meter backstroke with a world record time of 2:05.24, becoming the first swimmer ever to break 2:06 in the event. Her former teammate, Margaret Hoelzer (United States), followed right behind her in second place, earning the silver medal with a time of 2:06.23.
Thirty minutes later, Brazilian native Cesar Cielo earned Auburn's second gold medal as he posted an Olympic record time of 21.30 in the 50m freestyle.
Coventry has seven career Olympic medals.
The medal is the 10th for Auburn in the 2008 Olympics and the second gold medal of the Games. Auburn now holds the lead among American colleges and universities for medals won in Beijing. Second on the list is California-Berkeley with nine medals and Florida with six medals.
If Auburn were its own country, it would currently rank 10th in the medal count with 10 medals so far. The United States leads with 48, followed by China (41), Australia (21), France (20), Russia (19), Korea (18), Italy (15), Japan (14) and Germany (14).
Auburn has a chance for three more medals Saturday night as the 400m medley relays are contested.

yeah... he had the awful interview earlier this week where he said that 'Noone invited him' and so he was too hurt to attend. Later, he appeared on "Today" and said that was an overreaction but that he was bombarded with too much journalistic work to possibly be able to get to Beijing....
so he covered and praised Phelps... and he has been ever since.
he is a douche. but he has to kiss butt.. because Phelps has let all adversity help him and his teammates to become WINNERS.

seriously tho, unbelievable technique. there was a 17 year old nigerian girl that has no technique at all but incredible strength, she will be a player in 2012 if she sticks with it. she was twisting the bar in both disciplines and making things really hard on herself, but still did very well.
Waas in the bar tonight watchin' phelps race...huge, huge, turnout to see him win 8th gold medal.
Go sleep now....muy tired.

Phelps is the greatest swimmer in history.
But it's impossible to say if he is the greatest Olympian ever. He has the most gold medals, sure, but it's impossible to compare swimmers to athletes in other disciplines. There are 17 swimming events at the Olympics. Phelps failed to win more than half - he simply didn't race in them. On the other hand, Wrestlers or Boxers have but one chance to win a medal. They can't enter multiple weight classes, nor are there different styles.
Teófilo Stevenson won 3 consecutive Olympics. For 12 years, he was the greatest amateur heavyweight boxer in the world. But that's just a pitiful 3 gold medals, what are they, compared to Phelps' 14?
The simple fact is that swimming is the only event that allows for such a haul in medals. In gymnastics you are limited to 6 - the team event, the invividual all-around, and the 4 individual events.
Phelps might be the greatest Olympian ever, but we'll never know. And really, who cares? The guy's amazing.

he did win every race he entered though, and got some world records along the way.

If I found myself calling women's weightlifting at the Olympics, I don't think I could resist yelling out "WHAT A SNATCH!" at some point. I'd probably get away with it too.

I watched the 100 meter men's final last night and though the Jamaican, Usain Bolt, is the fastest man ever and set a new world record...he slowed up at the end to showboat. It was the dumbest thing I've ever seen. He pulled up with about 15 meters to go, pointed at the field, then banged his chest right before he crossed the finish line.
He could've taken even more time off the clock but he sacrificed a better time to showboat like an ass.
It really made him look stupid imo.

As amazing as Usain Bolt's win was in the 100 meter, I didn't like the way he finished. He actually could have finished with a better time if he didn't stick his arms out and grandstand like a spoiled NFL'er. Very unprofessional. Like a tall, fast Tyrell Ownes. Fast as hell, but came across as a prick.
He's a douche. Did you seem him modeling his shoes in front of the time board?

Eh, for these runners, the Olympics are really the only time they can show what they have, personality and talent. So i can not really faulut him.
And him slowing up and still breaking the WC, actually makes him look better. He basically told the world i am so much better than anyone that i do not even have to try 100% to beat them.
He made himself a good amount of money there.

Random Olympic observation: The American national anthem (I'm trying not to say "our" national anthem in the spirit of international brotherhood) works much better as an instrumental than a vocal. Most people just can't sing it, which is understandable, because you have to be one hell of a singer to pull that song off.
Of course, you could always go the Marvin Gaye route and just turn it into a booty song too.

i have to disagree.
he went into the race pretty much knowing that noone would be coming close to him.
he even played around w/the cameras and the crowd before the race began.
he definitely could have ran it straight and maybe gotten a 9.5, even ... but instead he chose to maximize his story and showboat a bit.
this is an enormous opportunity for exposure and a chance to nail down some sponsorships.
i say... if you know you are the best and it is your personality to show off... then why not do it in the Olympic arena.
that behavior isn't for everyone... but for him it works.

The 1,500 is a cool race, really. It's long enough so you get some of the strategy of long-distance running, but it doesn't run on and on like a 10K or marathon does, so you don't have that snoozer part where they're just sort of trying not to burn out too soon.

I even saw a little of the equestrian events this afternoon where the announcer (who used to be an awful sports guy on a station here) actually admitted they were calling the event from New York.

The women's basketball announcers did the same thing (admit to calling from New York).
I've noticed that they will only use the LIVE graphic when showing the big events. They had it up there during swimming, gymnastics and the track and field heats that they aired live. The smaller events, like softball, boxing and indoor volleyball will be shown live without the graphic so that other recorded stuff seems live.

God damn, this softball game is just an utter beatdown.
I think this is why softball will no longer be in the Olympics.

it is and it stinks.
there are so many countries playing... but still the US is the only one excelling in the sport.
a shame, really... because it's a lot of fun to watch. (and play!)

im tellin you guys. Get a platform to the right of the tramp thats 15 feet over it, then put a pool 10 feet below the other side of the tramp.
Score it based on trampoline landing placement plus a trick onto the tramp and then tricks into the water, and your tricks have to end feet or head first. And then that is brought into the judging too.
That would be the coolest shit ever
