Summer Olympics: Beijing 2008 discussion

China has 46 gold medals. That's more than the total medal count for all but two other countries (US and Russia).

Why women's beach volleyball is the bomb...

[Bad furday 57]

I'm hungry. ;) :(

[Uncle Du 22]

Made me kinda thirsty too. ;)

I thought China was supposed to control the rain for the duration of the Olympics.

Either the Chinese government sucks at what they do, or are huge pervs.

Either way, I win. :D

[Uncle Du 22]

We all win with their inability to control the weather. :D

Does it make me un-American if I had wished Argentina beat the crap of the US mens' basketball team?

And now hope that Spain will finish them off?

[TheUnknown 39]

No, but care to explain why?

[Radioactive Isotope 29]

cuz they're a bunch of pompous pro jerks? :p

[TheUnknown 39]

...who win.

[Mara 29]

No, but care to explain why?

Just 'cause I don't like them?

Anyway, it didn't work.

It was nice that they let Coach K wear their medals for a picture... but they really should have let him keep them.

Yeah, it's truly a shame that those jackasses from America beat those fine, upstanding young gentlmen from Spain.

:roll:

[Mara 29]

Is that even the current team? :p

[Chickenman 9]

...

Yes.

And there was a minor controversy over them being, I dunno, goddamned racist. :roll:

I could never think Pao Gasol would be racist.

I was happy to see the men's volleyball team get a gold, after 20 years without one. That was an awesome game.
