Olympic Observations!

A response to Justin's Post:

1. You either have to eat an extreme amount of food to be an incredible swimmer, or not eat any food to be an incredible diver. Phelps takes in 8,000 to 10,000 calories a day and then swims it off in the water, however Wang Xin hardly eats anything at all and is quoted as saying that she "doesn't like to eat" she's 4.5 feet tall and weighs probably 60 to 70 pounds! If Mr Smee was around he'd say, "there was no splash cap'n"

2. If you wanna be super buff then you should do gymnastics, but there is a draw back, you have to wear a leotard and run the risk of being called a fag... worth it? Well I'd rather be viewed as straight.

3. If you're balding and you don't want anyone to see it... than you can always wear a hat. But if you are really self conscious about it you may not want to play beach volleyball, hats fall off a lot.

4. Men's Synchronized Springboard is cool.... What I... I meant... its gay... GAY!! Ok I'm not gay or nothing but it is cool, although if one guy jumps off his left foot shouldn't the other guy have to jump off his left foot? I'm just going by the dictionaries definition of synchronized which is: to go on, move, operate, work, etc., at the same rate and exactly together. I mean come on!!! If you can spin the same way and at the same time then freaking jump of your left foot together!

5. BMX racing is an Olympic sport!?

6. People actually watch full length marathons??? Thank goodness for DVR!!!! Thoughts while fast forwarding were: "A marathon huh? wonder how much footage they cut out of these things, look at them run, well jog is probably a better word for it, they're still running, yep there they are still running, oh for heavens sake go to commercial!!! will you just end the stupid marathon is there nothing else you can show us but people running forever! Yes they made it to the track, why are they running around the track now? ok the race is over we just watched them run for 3 hours do we really need to watch the victory lap? Please make it stop!!!
