W O W ! ! ! 45 mins into the opening ceremonies and I am absolutely in awe. Just amazing. Amazing isn't a big enough word for the opening ceremony. I am glad we dvr'd it. If anyone missed it then I hope they put it up on YouTube. It was spectacular. Beijing got that part right. Pairing the 8 year old who survived the earthquake and went back to help his friends with Yao Ming was awesome too. DAMMIT I missed it . . . but Daniel Tosh was AWESOME!! |

Say what you will about the Chinese, they put on a damn fine ceremoney. The guy who lit the torch was lifted into the air, then "ran" around the rim of the stadium . The actual lighting of the torch though was only so so, nothing will ever beat the flaming arrow from Barcelona in '92. I don't care what you say, I think Male gymnasts are hot. They have the perfect balance between muscle size and definition. If I were gay I'd be sportin wood right now. |

Wow, what crawled up your butt and died? Aside from your view on baseball movies, I thought you were pretty cool and had your stuff together. Not anymore. I agree, spending tax money to make a problem go away isn't always the best solution, but to wish a terrorist attack on somebody, let alone an event like the Olympics? That is deeply disturbing on so many levels. I didn't mean to dampen' your O torch there Pothole. I am glad at 23 you are able to analyze someone you don't know, but from a few posts on a board. Disturbed? Hell everybody ought to be disturbed. I was being flip, sorry it didn't transcribe. I just have a bad feeling about the games. First of all, potthole has a lowercase p and two t's. Second, although it would be awesome if china would join our side in the war on terror, but not by way of terrorist attack. |

Free Beer, Zane, HW, and listeners,
I'm more irritated than Andy Dick's bunghole after a night of jalopenos and love making. I recently read that some people refused to watch the Olympics because of China's human rights record.
Dear Uninformed and short sighted Douchebag,
As you sit there surrounded by Chinese made products, you've already cast your approval to the Chinese government. If you purchased any Coca-Cola product or ate at a McDonalds in the last 7 years then you've already pumped your money into companies that have pumped their money into the Chinese government so that they can advertise and have businesses there.
Not watching the Olympics because of China's human rights records makes about as much sense as not eating at Taco Bell as a protest toward the Mexican police's corruption problems.
A decision such as this is one, and the public proclamation of same, is one of the self-righteous and self important; whose intellectual depth is only envied by the likes of Jessica Simpson.
Even if you were a Nielsen family, that would only be a small stab at NBC.
So unless you have a home free of Chinese made products, your oh so "look how enlightened I am" ridiculous decision to forgo viewing the Olympics allows the Chinese government to thank YOU for your support.
Like Jessica Simpson said: Quote "I'm not eating eggrolls anymore until Chinese people can vote" End Quote.
I'm Biff and that's what I think.

Wow Biff. You almost brought a tear to my eye. Well done.
Now back to the Olympics.
It looks like the redeem team is off to a good start, handling China with the skill and ease you would expect.
And the attitude towards the US team seems to have a night and day difference from the team in Athens. The Chinese people love our players.

That's really cool, one of my college coaches was the US high school record holder in the high jump and an alternate on the 88 and 92 teams. She told us a story about how one time she was on a plane and Ben Johnson was next to her, and she made fun of his lisp. |

i watched the women's gymnastics qualifying yesterday. it's fascinating to me. i want to be able to toss my ass around like that. the girls had a rough go of it, but they made it in. even that cute little gerbil shawn johnson had a couple near screw-ups. she never does that.
by the way, anybody else notice they took every single commercial break right before her routines? they know people will sit through them to watch her. she's the new face of usa gymnastics.

Last night would have been perfect, when the US beat the French, who declared they were going to "smash us" in the Mens 4x100 free, Costas and all the other on air journalists had a field day with that. Good luck managing Le Denny's Pierre. |

Ok...It's a cold hard world we live in pothole, If a few people died and the Chinese showed the Middle East what Hell really looks like, it's a win/win in my book. But it's never gonna happen 'cause that would be too easy. It's much more fun to throw tax dollars at a problem that has no solution. Wow, what crawled up your butt and died? Aside from your view on baseball movies, I thought you were pretty cool and had your stuff together. Not anymore. I agree, spending tax money to make a problem go away isn't always the best solution, but to wish a terrorist attack on somebody, let alone an event like the Olympics? That is deeply disturbing on so many levels. I agree. There are so many innocent athletes from all over the world there with their families. Not to mention the 300+ American athletes and their families. An attack at the Olympics would only cause us more problems. |

Ok so have you heard the latest dupe China has put on us. First the "prerecorded" fireworks. Now, it ssems as though the little girl singing Hymn to the Motherland was not even actually present. China decided because she didn't have the "perfect" look, they would record her singing and bring a cuter little girl in. How horrible. She sang well enough to get the gig but wasn't pretty enough to do in front of the world. She has been stripped of her fame cause she had buck teeth so they said. This is a travesty.  |

Aren't we all just innocent victims in a terrorist world??? ...In for a penny, in for a pound. Half-ass foreign policy's are really gone solve the problem. and I never said an Olympic bombing was the right thing! . I merely mused at the ramifications of such an event. You might want to follow someone's posts from the beginning and get the story straight. Good God..lighten the F up!! |

Yes, but didn't we all already know that it's pretty that get's you ahead, not talent. Just look at Hot Wings. And doesn't that girl on the left look like she's on some kind of crazy chinese cocktail of ecstasy, red bull, and prozac ? |

There are a lot of people who agree with you. I'm skeptical that anything will come of it though. Have you seen that the US coach is upset at how long her girls had to wait before performing? She's claiming the long wait is the reason Sacromone fell twice. |
