- dkitch, on 08/18/2008, -5/+69I miss the days where people spellchecked their headlines
- shutaro, on 08/18/2008, -0/+33I miss the days when the Olympics were about Zeus...
- zKman, on 08/18/2008, -0/+25I don't miss those days. People want to see the best athletes from around the world compete against each other, professional or not. For example take the FIFA World Cup and Olympic football.The 2006 World Cup final brought in 715m viewers. Olympic football? Who cares...the UK doesn't even have a team. (By the way, the prelim. game between the US and China had a global audience of 1 billion according to FIBA).

- TheSpook, on 08/19/2008, -0/+6It would contain the same number of characters if he/she had spelled it correctly. Der.
- cougar618, on 08/19/2008, -0/+6WHEN.
I guess you don't miss the days when people proof read before posting. - inactive, on 04/03/2009, -12/+17I have to admit, I miss the days when the Olympics were about amateur athletes. I know that other countries are sending professionals, so it makes sense for the US to do the same, but I miss the old days.
I congratulate the US basketball team, though. Outstanding play all around. - kamerononfire, on 08/19/2008, -0/+4I've gotta stop putting money on the underdogs.
- Mohdoo, on 08/19/2008, -1/+5Are you serious? It is so awesome watching other people get completely owned.
- duggdowncatisad, on 08/19/2008, -0/+4An amateurs only rule gives an unfair advantage to communist countries, do you see why?
- inactive, on 08/19/2008, -0/+4You bet against the Globetrotters?
"I thought the Generals were due!" - caeser5786, on 08/19/2008, -0/+4I think the reason why he didn't play for the US is clearly illustrated in the final score.
And Big Lebowski reference=instant digg - cr4ft, on 08/19/2008, -1/+5We should make more fair and send them the New York Knicks
- Tippx, on 08/19/2008, -1/+5sheiße, so ein mist
- Nowaiman, on 08/19/2008, -1/+5woo hoo!!!
- AgentMull, on 08/19/2008, -1/+4Ok, next year we'll send our worst players to be more competitive...
- harlowsmonkeys, on 08/19/2008, -0/+3I miss the day when the Olympics were about excluding women while we watched naked young male athletes perform, and then the spectators and the athletes had sex.
- jayb1rd, on 08/19/2008, -0/+3Olyimpcs? Are those like the Special Olympics but for dyslexics?
- wordson, on 08/19/2008, -2/+5We're not going to be winning any spelling bees, but we'll always have basketball!
- Nowaiman, on 08/19/2008, -0/+3what the ***** did you do to it, it's an abomination
- surfacewound, on 08/19/2008, -2/+5Is that you, McCain?
- dollar0dot02, on 08/19/2008, -1/+4I miss Full Yugoslavia and USSR when there was some competition in basketball.
- loopyloopy, on 08/19/2008, -0/+3i miss the days when "Women's Gymnastics" was women's gymnastics
- TheBigBad, on 08/19/2008, -0/+3If you bet Germany +50, you made a killing.
- blackinthmiddle, on 08/19/2008, -0/+3"digged" down? "aggrivated"?
I'm just saying. - dragonrice, on 08/19/2008, -0/+2woo hoo!!!
- AgentMull, on 08/19/2008, -0/+2We could send the NCAA Champions from last year.
- synystar, on 08/19/2008, -1/+3Combine the words. Unless you really meant God should damn it. You would be very passionate about spelling in that case and hoping that He would intervene.
- dupeduperson, on 08/19/2008, -1/+3for news submissions, you get so excited. You are afraid someone will beat you to the submission- its speed over spelling
- dragonrice, on 08/19/2008, -0/+2woo hoo!!!
- Stevethegreat, on 08/19/2008, -1/+3Hold on your horses mate, you still have to take the gold and you didn't do so for the whole 21st century (2000 belongs to the 20th century) in world cup competitions (both Olympics and Fiba World Cups), Germany is the collective training bag for the good teams of the second group (even China beat her).
From now on one bad game (one that threes are not going in for example) is enough to make you cry once again, in knock out games you will show your worth. Not that I really doubt that the gold is American this time round, but you'd better be careful before another Greece (or Argentina, or Lithuania etc) makes you go home prematurely.... - p51d007, on 08/19/2008, -1/+3One reason why I quit watching. Sports sucks anymore...college is the last place that has "amateur" sports, but the olympics were suppose to be about amateurs, but, when you have the commie countries stacking the deck with pros (well, state sponsored people), about the only "fair" thing to do is fight fire with fire.
- shawnanigans, on 08/19/2008, -0/+2When there was naked wrestling women weren't allowed to compete.
- OC73, on 08/19/2008, -0/+1Der spanking.

Come on Germany wtf. win something important again. - happyhamburgers, on 08/19/2008, -1/+2Australia vs USA is next.
