Title: 2012 London Olympics OT of wait until competitive eating is a sport
Post by: Human Snorenado on July 26, 2012, 03:18:54 AM: (http://i45.tinypic.com/z4k7t.jpg)

Huh? What? You're trying to disagree? JUST LOOK AT THAT FUCKING PICTURE, SLORE! Music for the opening ceremony? Done by critically acclaimed electronic group Underworld. Opening ceremony itself? Directed by Danny Boyle, who once directed a movie about Scottish heroin addicts who called the English "wankers". Full circle on that one, Danny.

Anyway, unfortunately that hot hurdler chick (http://withleather.uproxx.com/2012/07/michelle-jenneke-australian-hot-dancing-video) won't be at the games but there's plenty of other crazy shit going on- basketball, soccer (SUCK IT EVERYONE ELSE, FOOTBALL INVOLVES FREAKISHLY LARGE MEN GIVING EACH OTHER CONCUSSIONS, EVERYONE KNOWS THIS) and whatnot. For some reason (probably the nostalgia that I shit on in every podcast) I have always enjoyed watching the Olympics, even dumb shit like gymnastics, figure skating and curling. Talk about whatever in here.

I think she actually got off lucky. Facing the anger of her peers would probably have been even worse than not attending the Olympics.

correction : the ENGLISH, they called the ENGLISH 'wankers' - if a Scottish person was calling the British 'wankers' they'd be including themselves in the slur. Not uncommon.

There's a new kid named Yohan Blake who keeps surprising everyone. If Bolt isn't at his best, he can pull off an upset. I doubt he can break his records though. Either way, JA wins.

"One of the big threats we've got to take care of, and what we've paid attention to, is the illegal marking in the box on their corners and free kicks," Herdman said. "Some of the blocking tactics, which are highly illegal, we'll keep an eye on them in the game. We've starting working on that in training without trying to injure our players."

Herdman said he also hopes to "raise awareness" of the issue with game officials when Canada plays the U.S. in the semifinals on Monday at Old Trafford.

"Obviously they're trying to free up a key player, but in a very illegal way. ... The U.S., it's what they do well," he said.

Top 15 maybe, but it would be quite easy to put together a perfect roster without any foreign players. The problem is injuries. Guys like Harden and even Worstbrook wouldn't be on the team if Wade and Rose were 100% healthy and willing to go.

Silly hypothetical Olympics discussion - if Jordan had somehow been able to enter 20-plus basketball-related Olympics events (I dunno - 3 on 3, HORSE, 1 on 1, synchronized dunking doubles...), how many golds would he have? Would he ever have lost to anybody except in a 3pt contest?

Title: Re: 2012 London Olympics OT of wait until competitive eating is a sport
Post by: Cormacaroni on August 07, 2012, 06:49:32 PM: Maybe. But based on his 88-89 season where he basically played PG as well as taking all the shots (8 assists/game, 32.5pts :o), I don't see why he wouldn't be a serious candidate to win there too. I think he could have averaged 14 or whatever assists a night for multiple seasons no sweat, just by taking less shots or not playing with other ball handlers like Pippen or Ron Harper
Title: Re: 2012 London Olympics OT of wait until competitive eating is a sport
Post by: TakingBackSunday on August 07, 2012, 07:13:09 PM: Possibly, I just don't think he'd gold. Sort of a pointless discussion though, I'd rather discuss what Lebron would win.

If there were those same events for him...dunk contest, 3v3, 1v1, defensive routines, passing, dribble routines...Lebron would gather a sizeable amount of golds.
Title: Re: 2012 London Olympics OT of wait until competitive eating is a sport
Post by: Cormacaroni on August 07, 2012, 07:41:02 PM: Well, the point I'm making is that categories like swimming and gymnastics give opportunities for major talents to acquire massive medal hoards that dominant athletes in other categories simply cannot. Phelps constantly refers to Jordan as being his inspiration but it's really hard to compare the two in any meaningful way. I mean, Jordan won his gold in 1992 after playing cards 'til 6am, filming a documentary all around Barcelona for hours, then playing 36 holes of golf...sure he had bigtime help but there is no doubt he was the premiere player on that team, and he won that gold basically in his sleep, at maybe 20% effort.

Paul

Durant

Rose
Wade
Love
Griffin

Who would you replace with Dirk, Manu, or Parker? Dirk over Love/Griffin, Manu over Kobe, Parker over Westbrook? A perfectly healthy all-American team would have no problem being the absolute best team without the best foreign players.

I'll allow it. Flopping is why I hate the intl game so much. Keep that shit in soccer, feggits.

Man, Rudy Fernandez sold the SHIT out of that foul by Touriaf at the end of the game. Biggest theatrics since Pierce and the wheelchair. I don't blame Batum after seeing that ridiculous show.

As for some previously asked questions I'll chime in:

Good point by Cormac, you can't make a true NBA Dream Team without international players.

Second, could the 'Rest of the World' beat the current 'Dream Team?'

I don't think so, because I think that takes away one of the international team's biggest strengths, the amount of time they have spent playing together. A team like Spain or Argentina just have played so many games together over the years, because their top guys play in every tournament. One of the US's advantages right now is that we finally have some cohesion and not as much turnover year to year, so a lot of our guys have played together too.

A Rest of the World team would lack that teamwork necessary to beat our Dream Team.

I always thought back in the day when we sent college all stars that we would have been better served sending NCAA Champs of that year instead, send a real team that has played the game.

Hah yea, no love loss there. I once had an old Korean guy tell me he liked USA because we bombed Japan.

Anyway, I was also told that Koreans that brings home an Olympic medal get out of the compulsory military service. So I guess I'd be playing nasty too in that case.

Korea's been playing dirty every time they've faced Japan in any event this Olympics. It's really poor sportsmanship. But par for the course. I don't disagree with their reasons for being pissed off at Japan, but they're doing everything they can to keep holding a grudge and pass the hate down to the next generation. Reminds me of some of my family/friends on the reserve back home, keeping the fires stoked against European Canadians.

Oh, I agree. I was in Seoul for the last World Cup, and watching the matches out in public felt like a Nuremberg rally. Attribute their victories to national superiority, and any losses to the dastardly cheating of other countries.

More great sportsmanship: http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/olympics-fourth-place-medal/ioc-says-south-korean-player-t-accept-bronze-145955541--oly.html (http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/olympics-fourth-place-medal/ioc-says-south-korean-player-t-accept-bronze-145955541--oly.html)
