I'm watching women's luge. How do people get into these sports? I think its pretty cool n stuff, but still, its not a typical activity.
It's not <a class="postlink" href="http://www.dailydot.com/lol/olympian-andreas-wank-fake-name/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.dailydot.com/lol/olympian-an ... fake-name/</a>
There's more work to it than it looks, and of course there's the danger, but in the end it IS glorified tobogganing. And like Bobsled those first three-to-five seconds are what makes everything and what determines who wins. But lemmie tell ya: I rode a wheeled luge down the Lake Placid Olympic run in the summer and if you want to know fun, THAT was fucking fun.
I'm not saying its easy at all. I'm just wondering how people pick this up as a sport. I also think the women should do the luge in bikinis. And then show it in slow motion.
Couldn't agree more, unfortunately, I live in a country where we let women and children get raped and then express outrage and solidarity with the 'student athlete victims' because those schools couldn't compete in a bowl game that year. Glass houses, and all that. So while I find Russia to be pretty reprehensible, for a whole host of reasons (one of the reasons I'm boycotting the games, as if anyone cares), not sure we have a moral leg to stand on here.
Does NBC seriously not have access to a doctor and proper medication to get Bob Costas' eyes cleared up?
Women's luge . . . you mean high speed, downhill cameltoe highlights? Other than skiing, snow boarding, and hockey the winter olympic sports are something that most people will never even consider getting into for the sheer fact of availability and proximity. Just ball parking it here, but I'd guess that less than 90% of the population of the country has access to a speed skating course, a curling club, bobsled/luge/skeleton track, etc. Not to take anything away from the winter athletes competing now, but if the talent pool was opened up to the other 90% of the population who don't currently have access to any of this stuff, the medal count would look entirely different.
No shit. He has pinkeye but he looked like Lucky Luciano. "What's Cockeyed Costas yammering about now?!?!"
Hey hey HEY!!!! There's a reason why we have the Olympics and events in the cold: so the speedy tropical people don't show up and whoop our ass. Where else besides these sports and rugby have white people holding up trophies at the end? We crackers haven't had a guy in the 100 meter dash since the industrial revolution.
I like golfing, but GAYYYYYYYYY! You have to wear Dockers watching those events or security guards in sportscoats throw you out. "Come back when you have parents that are somebodies!!!"
Yeah, alot of those "niche" sports grew up around Lake Placid or places like that. One of the American lugers was talking about going up on the luge run with his friends when he was younger. Clearly not an activity kids are doing in Phoenix or Dallas. Speed skating is a bit different. Alot of those guys are ex-inline skaters which could be anywhere really. Until you get to an elite level, and then you go to one of a few places with an Olympic sized rink, aka Milwaukee or Colorado Springs.
It's like they hired their contractors from Canary Island Barcode Construction College. A breaker panel in a shower is pretty impossible to top.
That picture has to be photoshopped.... right? Because if that picture is accurate, the terrorists have already won. And they all reside in russia. **edit** It IS fake. Google image "bad construction." It's the first image that pops up.
Someone explain to me how lacrosse doesn't have more black participants. Aren't they better at rapeing anyway? I mean, Duke does have an admittance quota to fill.
Lacrosse was invented by aboriginals and is our national sport along with hockey. Usually black guys dont play it because a) black men don't usually like being hit with sticks and b) they would call "foul" all the time. Will Duke ever shake that? Not only were they innocent but the hideous cunt who accused them murdered her boyfriend. That guy goes down as "Worst choice in women EVER."
