Olympic Snowboarding

All the Americans looks like they could use a good solid punch in the face...and a kick in the balls for good measure.

You talking about halfpipe? I personally think that ex-Canadian now Aussie fuckwit should could use a good kick in the nuts. Not for his douchebag attitude or him selling out his country but for getting rich making malware. Fucker.

Ah, it was pretty impressive to a guy that know nothing about these things. The "Tomohawk" looked pretty good. That red-headed layabout earns a shit-load every year though. Damn, I'm unemployed at the moment, maybe I could twirl about in the air a bit - how hard can it be?!

You better start practicing. Shawn has been riding since he could walk. The first time I saw him ride he was 12yo competing in the men's division. He didn't win but he was trying tricks grown men wouldn't dare try. He is so far above anyone else it's silly.

I think of all olympic events in terms of this simple rule:

If you need a panel of judges to tell you who won, you have just witnessed a pageant, not a real sport.

This rule can take you far in life. I should write a bullshit self-help book.

The Olympics are awesome.

And you know what's a great sport? The Biathlon.

Know who thought of that?
The man, that's who.

I just read a book on how it was invented, and it went kinda like this:
GUY: Know what's great?
OTHER GUY: Nah, what?
GUY: Skiing and shooting shit.

I also heard that they wanted to add chugging High Lifes and sucking on titties to the sport, but the IOC won't let them because they think it will become so awesome that people who are unprepared will try to divest themselves too heavily into the sport and die like that Georgian luger.

I also heard that Lindsey Vonn fucked up and tripped on that gate yesterday because she was thinking about how hard she wants me to fuck her. Don't blame her, U-S-A, its understandable.

The judging has fucked up boxing quite a bit too though. I say they just let them fight until there's only one guy standing so there's no question about it. At least in boxing they're just judging how many punches landed so it's more objective than judging how "pretty" a performance was or whatever the fuck they do in the Olympics.
