SeanT21:don't know what that is mami. i just have the basic package. only sports channel i get are espn espn2. i don't even have fsc. ![]() ![]() ![]() onyinye you gotta read folks statement harder and stop taking stuff as personal attacks. you were talking about bolt being immature because he was being overtly emotional and dramatic after his races. and i take that to mean that you have being brainwashed by whitey. if you were in a black country it wouldnt even be an issue that will cross your mind. matter of fact the celebration part will be sweet to watch. now being in a white dominated country, coupled with white folks desire to want to squash any form of black progress or jollofment, that side of white folks JEALOUS attitude is starting to rub off on you because you are now starting to view black behavior with white eyes, only difference is that you don't actually know the reason why white folk object to bolts celebratory exuberance and hence like sheep you echo the same sentiment as them. now if you actually knew what was behind white folks anger at seeing bolts exuberant celebration then maybe you will see it from a black mans (which you are and hence should stop being led by white folks actions)perspective. THE REASON WHITE DUDES DONT LIKE BOLTS CELEBRATORY EXUBERANCE IS BECAUSE (1) HE IS A BLACK MAN AND IT PISSES EM OFF TO SEE A BLACK MAN DOMINATE ANYTHING (2) HE IS FROM A SMALL 'INSIGNIFICANT NATION' so i wasnt attacking you personally. i was attacking the attitude of hating on peoples choice of celebration which you are not the originator of but the imitator. you are hence imitating something of which you do not know the reason behind its existence. ![]() all in all what it comes down to is that you are hating on yourself because racism is behind the objection of the celebration hence you re being racist to yourself by echoing similar views. hence self hate. hope you can join the dots in the progression of my thinking. |

Ok just a couple things. First off let me start, with you freaking guys. ALL OF YOU. SHAME ON YOU ON CHANGING THE TOPIC TO SOME STUPID MEANINGLESS CHILDISH BANTER ABOUT NOTHING. Freaking A!!! What the heck is wrong with all of you??!!! From ony to sav to whoever else. What the flipping bolt! Ok not BACK to the topic. Someone once said, If you're not FIRST, then you're LAST. lol Now the whole point of going to the games, is to win Gold. That makes you the champ. Everything else, is secondary. I think its ridic that I think espn n mayb nbc? would hav diff. medal tables. The GOLD does carry more weight. And now secondly, onto the Cuban guy that you guys are now berating and shaming. Of course what he did was absolutely stupid and all, but just for his credit, I think he must hav been provoked by the ref. Hav you watched the video before you start killing him? He was just prancing up and down the field/court, and then when he came near the ref like the 4/5th time, he just suddenly turned and lashed out at the ref. The ref must hav said something to him. But that does not negate his harsh and stupid action tho. But it was a pretty sweet kick lol Next of, and finally, question directed at Ony. Just curious, how old are ya? I've read your remarks n replies here, and i'm just curious. And ya, i gotta chip in about the girls age. I dont know what the heck ya'll saw, but those girls hardly look like 16 if you're honest w yourself lol. Yes they may be 16, but they dont look it. Ok ya'll peaceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee No kill me abeg o, all na opinion. Make una chill |

Bottom line is US lagged bigtime in this Olympics, In Sydney the won 5 golds more than China, Athens 2004 China reduced the tally to 4 golds. AT the just concluded, China just showed them how to do them sports, if they don't keep their pride aside Team Togo might show the way in 2012. US infulence started fading after the Atlanta 96, from 44 gold in 96 to 36 in 00 and 04. http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/olympics/article4599875.ece |

And the debate continues. I think China won more gold medal so they are the winners. An article from yahoo attached: http://sports.yahoo.com/olympics/beijing/blog/fourth_place_medal/post/36-facts-about-the-Olympic-medal-count?urn=oly,103037 |
Re: China Vs Usa In 2008 Olympics by Nobody: 11:10am On Aug 25, 2008 |
who wants the other metals for real? Gold, anyday anytime. Never mind, in the absence of that we could manage slver of even bronze afterall half bread is better than puffpuff ![]() |
Re: China Vs Usa In 2008 Olympics by bayoozee: 11:21am On Aug 25, 2008 |
Wonder why USA never thot little of gold medals until now. It's now about total number of medals. lol Sore losers. At least do whatever u do with dignity, that includes bowing to China. ![]() |
Re: China Vs Usa In 2008 Olympics by dtwsola(m): 11:33am On Aug 25, 2008 |
I agree that USA's method of ranking medals is silly, but they have always ranked them by total medals even when they topped gold medal count. The only difference is that nobody cared then since the US topped both total and gold medal counts. |
Re: China Vs Usa In 2008 Olympics by presido1: 11:38am On Aug 25, 2008 |
dtw_sola:Are u sure u have seen the previous Olympic ranking/table. US is first by virtue of their gold as well as the total number of medals in 96,00 and 04. check well dude. |
Re: China Vs Usa In 2008 Olympics by rachie(f): 11:46am On Aug 25, 2008 |
China won. As for the age of the gymnasts it appears like the Chinese are in the clear and it was mainly just sour grapes on the US part that was all mainly drummed up by Bela Karolyi. These gymnasts do look younger than their age but i always gave them the benefit of the doubt as nothing had been proven. http://www.nbcolympics.com/gymnastics/news/newsid=253637.html?_source=rss&cid= I also like this article http://news.ulster.ac.uk/releases/2008/3983.html |
Re: China Vs Usa In 2008 Olympics by dtwsola(m): 11:48am On Aug 25, 2008 |
presido1: When I say US, I speak of the US media. And that is how I have known US media networks to rank, by total number of medals. Of course, like many things the US does, this system is flawed. |

bela kalroyi a suprised package always looking for xcuses whenever the gymnist messes up, always talking abt rip off whenever they are down ( it has been said that "its only a bad worker that always complain abt his tools" ![]() abt the ages of the chinese gymnist,i feel they look under age but are not underage, i.e when you take a look at any chinese always looks or appear young, and for the media in us the WORST commentary i ever heard eg in SYNCHRONIZED DIVING whenever an american diver dives the comments made are like; superb,no other diver can ever do this,this is simply the best etc and the judges gives the us diver a score of 65.25 out of 100, while a chinese diver, dives the comments will be thats bad, the dive is bad while the ten jugdes awards the diver a score of 93.50 jugdes which includes an american and the chinese diver takes the GOLD while the american finishs in 8th place in the stands it was disastrous for viewers like myself bcus it was all abt TEAM USA although i once rooted for usa bck in my country bcuz i appriciate good things but watching the olympics in usa is making me think twice, i knew i missed DStv alot ![]() |
