    Default The Olympics

    I like high-level athletic competition. The Olympics always have something cool to watch that I didnt know was so cool.

    What you looking forward to?

    I am not an opening ceremonies kind of guy but i think this one is in the River Seine. Should be interesting.

    us soccer lost to france 3-0 yesterday. its ok. we suck (not our national team. our u-23 team) we still suck.
    Ugh. Stupid people piss me off.

    I’ll watch the floor gymnastics with my daughter. I like to watch Katie Ledecky swim, and I always watch the track sprints. I remember that being a big deal when I was a kid.

    How does someone judge breakdancing?
    Them that don't know him won't like him, and them that do sometimes won't know how to take him

    He ain't wrong, he's just different, and his pride won't let him do things to make you think he's right

    They don't put Championship rings on smooth hands

    Archery was televised last games. Those men and women are bad ass with a bow. The skeet competition was good too.

    This image is from the opening ceremonies. The more I see of the EU, the more I respect the traditional values of Russia.
