I love the Breaking. It's such a different spice of life. Judges vote, and it's over. No stupid .1, .2, .3. It's over. The best thing is the battlers can tell the judges basically their opponent fucked up. Which I find cool as hell. I've been surprised by this. It's way more fun than stupid synchronized swimming.

lol she goes by nicka (neeka).

But this is why events like this are such shit and don't belong in the olympics. They gave that to mah nicka when the chinky girl clearly whipped her ass. Same goes for gymnastics or anything else with subjective scoring.

Classic Curry flurry at the end to secure the gold. Love when he gets in that mode.

Was a really good game, really seemed like France was clawing their way back into it until Curry slammed the door shut. That last three he chucked up was absolutely insane.

Side note, Wade and Eagle were probably the worst announcing duo I've ever heard. I was driving during the first quarter, so, I could only listen and holy shit, it's really apparent when you can't tune them out and just watch. Eagle doesn't attempt any play by play, he just shouts player names in between Wade babbling some lame anecdote.

they took it away because the team had to appeal within one minute and they did it in one minute and four seconds. That’s really in the spirit of the games. What crap.

Be a real shame if we found some oil in Romania that we had to "protect".

The opening and closing ceremonies were terrible, other than Kavinsky playing Nightcall with a really hot woman singing and I don't mind the indie band playing either.

It's just pretentious. We were robbed of an opening ceremony because the French think that Paris is so amazing that having a tour of it is enough. Now the closing ceremony is some alien Cirque du Soleil jerking off over the olympic rings?

The London Olympics got it right imo, that opening ceremony was perfection. Mordor Olympic ring forging, Mary Poppins horde vs Voldemort and the Spice Girls.

The LA presentation really upstaged the French stuff. We go from the Red Hot Chile Peppers, Snoop and Dr Dre to some fat lady singing Frank Sinatra.

Umm what?

That "sports star of the year" award was from something called Pedestrian TV

I then had to look up whatever the hell that is, I've never heard of it..
PEDESTRIAN.TV, is a youth digital news and entertainment website based in Sydney,

So what ever their yearly award / awards night is. It's got no significance at all.

here's a better article:

Australian B Girls fear for the future"

www.theguardian.com

‘It doesn’t reflect us’: Global mockery of Raygun’s Paris Olympics performance affecting Australian scene, local B-girls say

Australian breakers say Rachael Gunn won her spot fair and square but that there are flaws in selection process
www.theguardian.com www.theguardian.com

I can't get over them being "B Boys" and "B Girls" and "Breaking", it sounds so silly.

Still if the other dance events are taken seriously I don't see why this one can't be, I generally liked the new events, but this one was too subjective I think. The existing dance type events have very established routines and difficulty levels.

Are you guys still ordering the medal table by total medals so you are still top?

Everyone else orders it by number of gold medals and you are 4th lol.

Anyway what's gone wrong, all that demoralisation kicking in?
