silver really is considered "the first loser"
i am one of those people that dont really think the bigger team sports should be an olympic sport..... but where do you draw the line?
sure the relay swimming and 4 by 100 may be considered "team" sports but they are still an individual battle and they are fantastic
i will get up at 2:30 in the morning to watch my football team or an important european or international match but........ olympic football? well it leaves me cold!
i was watching one of those "olympic moments" on an amazing ozzie female cyclist in the 500m individual pursuit who won gold at a recent previous games and at the end the commentator remarked that she will be the last medalist because her discipline was being replace by...... wait for it.......BMX!!!!!
WTF?
we may as well all roll over and admit defeat if crap like this is considered an olympic disciline(?)
viva americolympics! (not)
(annoyed) pat
