You’ve GOT to be kidding me.
We are soooooo doooomed...........................
So this might be what .... the 2nd time she’s proud of her country?
I, for one, welcome our new wookie overlords.
Another reason not to watch the Olympics. Wonder if she’ll try to get her porcine posterior into the spandex type pants or a nice pair of shorts. (Sorry!)
I guess we’ll be seeing her homely mug in everything on TV. I turn the channel instantly when her puss appears on anything.
Ironic that Grant Hill, a former Dream Team individual will also be there. I heard on the radio that the NBA players are considering playing in a different World basketball tournament where they will get paid, instead of doing the Olympics and getting no money (Are they really that greedy?). I guess pride in their country isn't enough.
I would recommend you record it anyway ... what if there is a huge BOOOOOOOOOOOOO ... lol ... you wouldnt want to miss that would you? lol
Be better if she brought up the rear.....
what a life she leads...
come Jan. 2013 it is going to come to a joyous end..enjoy now Michelle as we plan to send you back to the South side of Chicago.
I’m proud to say Brandi is a distant relative.
However I won’t be watching anything that might give me
even a glimpse of michelle person..
Obamolympics!
The media would spin it as they are honoring Bo, the first familie’s dog.
Here is the link about the NBA players. It does not affect the 2012 games.
2012 Summer Olympics: How NBA World Cup of Basketball would transform current Team USA
NBA has proposed its own international “World Cup of Basketball” to FIBA, in which case the league would forbid its players from participating in the Summer Olympics according to Yahoo Sports.
This is supposed to be the first Olympics where Social Media will be prevalent.
It will be so interesting to read the tweets on this.
The Olympics for me stopped being all-American when those athletes raised their fists in Mexico in the 60s. Haven’t watched any of it since then.
Which flag will she carry...? Hammer and Sickle?
Leading the Olympic delegation is a honor that should belong to an American athletic hero.
Not a political publicity whore.
I turned off Restaurant impossible because she was promoting “healthy food” free to the downtrodden or some such rot.
