I wonder if he'll ever live it down

"The Americans? We're going to smash them. That's what we came here for,"

 

:rofl:

 

At least he just won individual gold

[slomove]

What, who said that?

 

Anyway, I am beginning to view the Olympics reporting with disgust.

 

If any given competition does not have a US team or if the US won't have a medal chance there is no reporting because the rednecks won't care. On the other hand, I have to watch boring family stories of any f*cking star athlete. We are missing a whole bunch of really interesting events.

 

Tried to get some Internet video feed from European sources but it seems they are all locked down to the US due to contractual bullshit. Does somebody know how to get the big picture?

Alain Bernard - french ace on the final leg of the relay race, he blew a large lead in the last 25 meters. The guy who ran him down on the US side ran the race of his life to catch him. I'm sure you have seen the photo finish.

 

Anyway, before the race, Bernard said in an interview “The Americans? We’re going to smash them. That’s what we came here for,”

About your other comment, I wish they would show something besides swimming, gymnastics and basketball.

Your wish has come true, Mazda. How could you have missed the extended coverage of the Bad-

minton in prime time last night shown here in the PNW? And of course, we're cleaning up in Beach Volleyball! And there's more to come..........

I would've liked to see some table tennis too. I hardly ever watch TV, so i'm not surprised I'm missing alot. Our local town here is sort of the table tennis capitol of US.
