Angola rolling! 6-3. I expected Russia to be pretty good I guess?

Olympics are half sports half selling shit

At the end of the cycling road race today, the us team gathered together in the finish area and were eating big macs with the mcdonalds logo prominently displayed

dude, you are supposed to carbo-load BEFORE the race

US v. Mexico in ping pong! I want to see the Mexican girl go to the wrong side of the net and have the US athlete point and wag her finger. ;)

They could be plenty of "under the table" action in this match...

One at each corner of the table, and two at the net?

Four at the net! ;)

I just mean one at each end to toss back the ball would mean more action.

Lol.

The announcer just used the term "bad bounce." It's called spin, sir.

She's watching online, so she can actually see the good stuff and not wait until prime time.

I used to work at a restaurant where I served Keri Strug. Only celebrity I ever met that I had a bad impression of afterwards. Total diva, bad tipper, all kinds of special requests. Just the worst.

Oh, 400IM, okay.

I doubt Phelps medals. I don't think this is going to be much of a rivalry. I think Phelps will sneak in a few medals, but it's Lochte's Olympics for U.S. swimming this year.

Wow. This outcome actually doesn't surprise me. After the last Olympics, I expected this sort of.
