Re: The 2012 London Summer Olympics Thread
I wonder if any North Koreans will defect while in London.

Re: The 2012 London Summer Olympics Thread
Well I thought the ceremony was great. All I've been hearing is how Beijing was better. I didn't watch Beijing but I thought this one was very impressive and creative.
p.s. I guess Ralph Lauren won't be asked to create team USA's entrance clothes anymore after that "made in China" gaffe.

Also, I'm sick and tired of hearing whiny ass Americans crying about how "lame" the opening ceremonies were. News flash assholes: The games were to honor the heritage and culture of the United Kingdom, not to appease egocentric Americans who somehow think the world should revolve around them. When we host the Olympics again in the United States, than they can cater to us. This night was more for the Brits than anybody else.

2012 Summer Olympics -- Michael Phelps is slowest qualifier in heats for 400m IM - ESPN
Kind of makes you wonder about his work ethic the past four years seeing how he's did in the qualifier and looking back on on some of the shots his teammates took at him. Hopefully he'll get it together. Serena making it to the second round. Wimbledon courts are the perfect spot for her to capture a gold. 2012 Summer Olympics -- Serena Williams wins in first round on Wimbledon court - ESPN

2012 Summer Olympics -- Ryan Lochte wins 400 IM while Michael Phelps finishes fourth - ESPN This is what half ass training and living the limelight will do to you. He should have just retired if he was going to train and prepare for the Olympics in that sort of fashion. Watching women's beach volleyball right now. These two girls(mitsti/kerri) have never lost a match in the Olympics yet. Amazing. That was a hell of a game with the Aussies.
