You still have to ride the bikes, throw the javelins, and you still have to actually run in the suits. These bows had balancing additions, scopes, everything but an automatic shot. So yeah, it's close to being horseshit just based on that. Bamboo Bows, you are the archer not the archer who needs a Super Bow to be any good. Very cool still, just picking at it a bit. I like Fantasy world of Wooden Bows...LEAVE ME ALONE ABOUT IT...heh..

They don't have scopes and are easier to draw back and get power from opposed to the wooden bows of old. It allows for faster loading and release so faster shooting which apparently makes it more exciting.

You know what...I'll take a Female Elf with a Bow anyday over these dudes. Still I never said it wasn't a cool event. I see the bows and think it's much easier today than yesteryear but Sally is right. I get it.

The swimming has been cool, I've also secretly enjoyed the gymnastics but don't tell my peeps. I'm waiting to see some Diving and I've been youtubing Handball games. The men's game is fucking awesome!

I'll tell you, being on the East Coast, the whole tape delay ruins the Olympics for me. On the weekend when I could watch shit at 8 in the morning or 10 in the morning it was great. But I already know the results of the day by the time I get home. What a pain in the ass.

I agree with the tape delay. I hate it! There's nothing worse than watching a sporting event and already knowing the outcome.

I watched some beach volleyball yesterday. I love those USA chicks. Also those dudes Dalhouser and Rogers. They're a bad ass team.

I love playing beach volleyball but hate watching it on the television. It's just a game of roll shots over the top which becomes really boring - and if you're watching for the girls: let's be honest we all have the internet lest we'd not be on APW.
If you want to see something really exciting what until the Brazilian men play the States on the hard court. Shit'll be off the hook.

Bra looked like they were going to do something special from the beginning. but the US closed the hell out of that last game. They looked untouchable.

I swear, Serena is like on a Redemption tour or something. She has completely swept through the field. I'm definitely glad she got rid of that Azarenka chick, the fuck is that noise? loll
Seeing LeBron go clutch when needed was nice, but finally they found somebody who gave them a challenge. Those big bodies of Lithuania, they were getting it in, plus there fouls were low while their turnovers were at an all time high. USA survives it. Now to the next opponent.

I recorded Murray vs Federer and I don't know who was more impressive Serena or Murray. But if there was any doubt in me that 2012 Team USA could beat the dream team, it's gone. You could say, well they had a bad game, but they really didn't have a bad game, they just took dumb shots and they couldn't match with the bigs of Lithuania, If they play like this against Spain, Spain will murder them.

I watched women's soccer. Not really much more I can say than that.
