As A kid I believed every thing which was on TV.
Amreekan being SO full of them selves use to say things like "If I saty fit I am sure I would get a gold madle "(in pre olympic) shows.
Funny how I never find those "gold madel winner" in even first six players.

Faisal, track & field has only just begun I believe. Swimming and Gymnastics have always been popular events so they naturally get more attention... Some of the weightlifting has been quite amazing... These chinese are pretty damn good.

X2, I think its actually good fun to learn a little more about some of the athletes and their amazing stories. Always brings a tear to my new age sensitive dude's eye. I just think its just amazing what they go through to get where they are. Can be inspiring. I guess you might be referring to the way they make those clips.. which can be cheesy I suppose.

you'll always get whinyness in sport from sore losers, or wannabe experts who are commentating.

Commercialization,,, hm, well I guess its the way of the world... just the way it is.

hey! I enjoy it while i can, it only comes around every four years, for a few weeks. In the uk the programs start live at 3am, end about 12pm. Ive been getting up to watch it every night!

And thankfully the BBC have NO ADVERTS!

I knew the pakistani team was doomed from the start when i saw the opening ceremony lol, the pakistani flag bearer could not even hold the flag properly, it kept getting wrapped up around the pole

Now they are showing Olympic WALKING, surely one Pakistani could be trained up to walk!
