The Chinese are laughing at your opening ceremony. They're saying: "Geez! Did it cost them a whole $20? Meanwhile, we spent billions of $. It was one of the lamest openings in the Olympics record. Hey Wang, let's bring them some Yuan."

Just pulling your chains. Congrats for winning the most golds at the Arctic Olympics! I'm serious. I REALLY REALLY tried to watch some of the winter games, but couldn't because they were so boring, what with all the figure skating, bobsledding, etc.

Too each there own I guess. I find there is a lot more boring sports in the summer olympics. Ya not a fan of figure skating, or cross country skiing. But all other skiing events are good, hockey, snocross, skicross, aerials are awesome.

As for the opening ceremonies who cares again. Good on Canada if they didn't go all out and spend tons of tax payers money. Holding the Olympics is very tough on the host city, that city will be in debt for years to come now.

There is probably more thrilling events in the Winter Olympics then Summer. Actually there is. There's no sport in the summer Olympics that pulls g-forces like in the Winter games.

Oh they can catch you with a good body check. Why run when you can skate. You can have the swimming, we wouldn't be caught dead wearing a speedo, homo.

No other country in the world has won more golds then Canada. Yup we are the Champions. Great Olympics for Canada.
And no other country has won more medals total then america (let alone this is the first time we were ever number 1 in medal count).


Regardless, this was a good olympics for everyone!


(I like the winter games better...)

It's "loss". Seriously, I didn't watch it or did I care to; although, if someone were to pay me, I would have watched it. I don't care enough to be sour. Just having a little fun and showing my appreciation for the summer Olympics, in which I like watching the Black brothers play (in track 'n field, basketball, soccer, etc.).

I agree, Winter games are more exciting. The Summer games, well there is so many boring events. It's basically track and field, with other boring sports thrown in. Wait rowing is fun to watch, lol NOT at all. Nothing exciting about watching men in speedos either. But Steponme I guess if that's what you like we won't judge. lol

Track and field is boring. Winter games I think are better. More exhilirating sports. Who are the black brothers. LOL

^ You are on crack and it shows. All you could think of is Track 'n Field?

There are also martial arts (Judo and Taekwondo), basketball, soccer, boxing, baseball, shooting, volleyball, weightlifting, etc. Now, those are proper sports. It's not really a sport if I don't see a Black brotha compete in it. No Black brothas = no sports.
