The Olympics...
...suck
Maybe it's just me, but I just think it's very silly that people get a reward for finishing 2nd or 3rd. For Christ sake - you lost! You suck! There is someone (or two) better than you... Yet you smile and wave like you won something of value???
This whole concept of Silver and Bronze medals irritates me. "Oh, I tried so hard and prepared like crazy - it was a thrill just to medal" - You are a loser!!! You did not win! You are not good enough! You need to make yourself throw up, lose a few more pounds and come back in four years and try again. Nobody cares about second or third place.
This is really not the biggest deal I guess, but it just bothers me that people work that hard to accomplish a goal and then get this patronizing second or third place medal and have to pretend they are happy with this accomplishment. Anyone who says they are happy to have finished with a medal other than gold is full of crap! If they were happy losing, they wouldn't be competing on this high a level of their sport.
Oh - and we need more injuries in the ice events - speedskating, figure skating, curling. With that hard a surface hosting the sport, there has to be a few more cracked skulls and broken limbs occurring in order for me to watch these lame winter games.
Here's to Bode Miller not medaling and returning home only to kill a cop while driving under the influence... Booyakesha... I hope we see him in a reality show with Flava Flav real soon...
