London Olympics 2012

I will be watching the Swimming events. The fourth guy is one of our local lads.

Cameron McEvoy/Eamon Sullivan/James Roberts/James Magnussen/Matt Targett/Tommaso D’Orsogna

OK, that's pretty hot SS! I'll be watching those events too

If it makes you feel better, I didn't get any tickets to any events either.

Granted, I didn't bid for any, but still, we're in the same boat.

That's because you don't know any rowers at all. (Protip: About 10% of rowers are gay. Just like about 10% of swimmers are gay. And nearly 10% of major league baseball players are gay! And ~10% of NFL football players! Imagine that!)

I also like how you use "gay" as if it were an insult. Neil Patrick Harris gay, yet he's 1000% times more awesome than you'll ever be, so you might want to find a new word to use when attempting to insult things.

Beside, that Phelps kid is overrated. Any old Joe can swim well if they just train a lot. Maybe lift some weights or something.

Yeah, you just gotta want it bad enough.

Having wings come off of your penisular area.

That's... something. 50/50 one or the other.

I bet the beak of that bird is really floppy.

OMG I've got to get that tattoo now!

Nothing would be more amazing than any of the bird related cries you could make.

"I'm a peacock, you gotta let me fly!"
"Ka-kaw!" *dramatic finger-talon pose* and/or *flying tackle*
Woodpecker.

Uhh... pretty much just the screaming of "Ka-Kaw!" That's what I got before I finished this train of thought.

If you enunciate the word just right you can make the "Kaw-Ka" part sound like "Cawk-AHHH" which would be hilariously appropriate.

Lookin forward to the boxing, GB have some real promising prospects.

Apart from that, the rest is a bit meh.....

Ha ha, it's quite amusing to see people dismiss some Olympic events as lame or gay (!). Regardless of what you think of each individual event, there are people all over the world who have been training to become the best in the world at it. So although it may not interest you, it's still quite an achievement to get a medal. I would imagine rowing is quite a strenuous event, and the men & women who compete have to put in so many hours of training I think it's a little unfair to just dismiss it so easily. So what if the guys all get together and soap each other off in the showers afterwards? Don't all sports teams do that...

I am looking forward to watching the women's javelin event personally. Only because I found out that the Paraguayan competitor, Leryn Franco, is also a model.

Olympics have started and the Russian women team have beaten the Chinese in the beach volleyball

1st gold medal awarded to some chick from China in the 10 metre air rifle shooting.

Watching the women's court volleyball match between USA and Korea, i like those shorts they're rocking

The only sport its acceptable to zoom in on the girls asses...because they are giving each other the secret little hand signals.

I'm not sure why this sport isn't on TV every weekend.

On a differnt, but related note. Go Paraguay!

Women's gymnastics! I watch that shit all the time!
