I wouldn't say the Olympics have been epic (hell, the majority of the track and field events haven't been performed), but Phelps' performance will go down in (at the very least, American) history as the greatest athletic performance ever.
I was speaking idiomatically. |
He's a fucking swimmer. Dominant, sure, but in swimming. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? John Mayer just asked me, personally, through an assistant, to sing backup on his new CD. |
WATCH OUT DENI, PHELPS HAS RAGE!
Spoiler:
Purpose of this post: to remain strictly on-topic. FELIPE NO |
FUCKING YEAH Best thread rename of the year. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? #654: Braixen |
I win, Tails. Jam it back in, in the dark. John Mayer just asked me, personally, through an assistant, to sing backup on his new CD. |
You are mistaken sir, Phelps is the real winner here.
PHELPS DISCUSSION ONLY. I lol'd though. There's nowhere I can't reach. #654: Braixen |
Anyone watching this 20K walk right now. I had no idea this was real. I remember seeing Hal on Malcolm in the Middle doing it hilariously, and thought it was a joke. It is pretty funny, but props to those Olympic guys. I wonder what the rules of walking are while watching it.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
Participants must have at least one foot on the ground at all times.
That's pretty much it. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
Dunno why people like knocking on Phelps. Swimming is a sport where it's "easy" to rack up a lot of medals compared to other sports, true. It also lacks the drama of team sports or more glamorous activities (gymnastics, T&F, etc), but anyone has to admit that watching Phelps being able to dominate the field is an incredible feat. Heck, just being able to maintain his schedule is intense.
It'd be much easier to hate on Phelps if he were a dick, but he's not even that. Very good-natured guy. I will say this, though: Somewhere out there, there's an orthodontist who would really love to work on Phelps.

Sup GFF faggots, who can't handle shit? |
I was 20 km walk (is that what it is?), holy shit that was intense. It would SUCK to be disqualified middle of the game.
Anyways, Phelps on his 7th medal... fuck, only 1 more. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
And the opening ceremony is just getting more and more embarrassing for every day that passes:
It also seems like the piano performance by Lang Lang might have been prerecorded: Epoch Times - Fake Piano Played at Opening Ceremony? FELIPE NO |
Heh, this bit of information is more inconsequential than the aforementioned voice dubbing, wouldn't you say?
On that note, I wonder how long will it take for the unpatriotic leaks intent on de-glorifying the opening ceremony to ... uh ... receive a re-education through hard work... What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |

Bolt might as well have moonwalked the 100m Final. That was just insane celebrating with about 15m left and jogging through the line, the 100m semi final was unbelievable he literally walked it. He could of done a flat 9.6 if he even bothered or dare I say a 9.5.
I forsee a 9.5 in the future however. Johnson's 200m record is gone only question remains is by how much. As good as Phelps has been that truly was the performance of the games. He squashed Powell and Gay. Jam it back in, in the dark.

In other news, a massive scandal has erupted after it was revealed that China planted "supporters" in stadiums to conceal empty seats and create a psychological advantage for their athletes
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
And I'd say that Powell "squashed" himself, as usual when it comes to a big race. Not sure what happened to Gay? I was surprised not to see him in the finals. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
MEMO: GLOBAL NEWSAGENCIES, PRESS FROM: ANONYMOUS BENEFICIARY THEY'RE CALLED THE 'REDEEM TEAM' THIS OLYMPICS OKAY. BECUASE THEY'RE GOING TO WIN. RIGHT? RIGHT. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Why the fuck can't they record events and leave them online for people to watch?
They fucking expect everybody to just catch everything at any given moment. I can't go back and watch anything I missed, and none of the stations have full event replays, and only offer highlight reels from select events. This is the 21st century. Get with the fucking times, people. Most amazing jew boots |

If you know how to use proxies (Firefox has a great plugin) find one in the Uk and goto BBC - Homepage, it has video clips and highlights of everything. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

As for my Phelps love, maybe I appreciate what he's doing more because I couldn't swim to save my life, which is kinda the point of swimming. I understand the mechanics of swimming, but my buoyancy is sadly low. Most amazing jew boots |
For 'each' of the 100m's (15 x 100m = 1500m) he needs less than 1min. So crazy. I can swim 3.0km's without a break in a steady tempo in 45-50mins (sorry for bragging *g*), thinking of myself that i am quick (since i outswim *any* other in that same pool during that long time)...but Hackett...done in < 30mins., for him not a problem at all. He's my personal swimming hero and idol. Not da Phelps. Swimming superfast on short distances is not an art. Swimming superfast in a young fresh body is no art, either. (Usain Bolt is 21!!) Yet, swimming superfast on long distances (>1.5km) is a piece of art, the supreme! And here, nobody could ever beat Hackett. A guy for eternity. [...] Ah, btw, does NE1 know details on the (average) daily swimming pensum of the U.S. or Australian boys, e.g. Phelps? I heard that some of them train 15km's every single day. Crazeeeeeeeeee... Hackett lost, and he was far from his own world record! (Bye Hackett, farewell, time to retire.) i am severely disappointed, lost a hero, and am now looking for a new idol. And found one: Not Phelps, not Hackett, but Rebecca Soni What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Eight for eight. Thread over.

Bah, oh well. The Aussies did ok. Our butterflier (who I've never heard of) stayed with Phelps for a good while. Well done, team!
And well done to the Australian women swimmers! They won their medley relay in a pretty awesome race. Shame Grant Hackett lost, but Tunisia got the gold so no biggie~ This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
Man, I adore our top swimmers. Phelps sucks at giving interviews, but he's such just such a happy guy you can't help but feel good anyway. It's a shame Coughlin and Torres couldn't grab gold in the final relay, but they're such great sportsmans. I especially like how Torres keeps chatting it up with the opponents (who are all like half her age) both pre- and post-race. What was it she said? "In the pool we're opponents but outside the pool we're all friends." Great stuff.
Bolt in the 100m was insane. Never seen anyone run a world record time so easily. I wonder what he'll be like in 2012 if he has someone who can push him hard. Also caught the end of the women's marathon. Completely staggering how they can maintain that kind of pace for two hours, but it must be a positively awesome experience to enter the stadium on the final stretch. Really despising NBC's broadcast delay and constant commercial breaks. I stay up past midnight quite often, but sometimes I just want to catch the most anticipated events a bit earlier, thanks. Also getting really tired of seeing the Exxon Mobil commericals, though I'm totally impressed by the United Airlines ones every time. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
[11:04] <+zip> he ran like he saw some food [11:05] <+zip> it's the new shoes [11:05] <+Ultima> he ran like the cops were on his ass [11:05] <+Tails|Away> he ran like he saw some cops Were the any cops present at the event? I wasn't watching. Also Phelps eight for eight AMERICA FUCK YEAH Most amazing jew boots #654: Braixen
