philw Posted July 1, 2012 Report Share Posted July 1, 2012 It seems the Olympics has difficulty with sports where the fashion changes fast. Half-pipe for example is fast becoming history... But then who cares about the Olympics? Oh, Pepsi and McDonalds. Make people obese, then encourage them to sit and watch thin people on drugs playing sports they barely understand and couldn't hope to participate in. It's a funny old world.

Except that there is Curling in winter,and it looks like anyone can give it a hurl, er whirl;and anyone can run fast for a short distance-just depends what the motivation is,a cheeseburger perhaps;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
