Too Much Volleyball, Not Enough Olympics
NBC ^ | FReeplancer

Posted on 08/18/2008 9:08:16 PM PDT by freeplancer

I tried to watch the Olympics but am I the only one that is sick of Beach Volleyball? This makes four nights now that they have shown the same women's duo and I know more about them than all other athletes (except Phelps). I give up and I guess politics is not the only thing NBC can ruin.

Less volleyball and more female gymnastics! I’m tired of watching the same two women play volleyball...especially that one girl with the nasty tattoo... it looks as if B. Hussein Obama came along and graffiti tagged her backside.

Yes, Mr. Cat and I just had the exact conversation about 5 minutes ago.

I enjoy watching it. Rather than sand, I’d prefer that they play in jello, pudding or something similar. Same for the cheerleaders.

I got tired of watching the 2 1/2 hour women’s marathon they showed the other day.

You might appreciate if you spent your entire life in a beach town in So, Cal.!!!

First, keep in mind that, when it's 7:00 pm here, it's 7:00 am in China. NBC (not unreasonably) prefer to broadcast LIVE sports, and, at that hour, the ladies' marathon was the only game in town.

Second, I for one thought that it was simply straight cool that the Romanian gal stole the race while the others were diddling around in the pack. No guts, no glory -- GUTS? Glory! And good on her!

Why men watch beach volleyball

Elaine: Ok, why? Why do guys do this? What is so appealing to men about a cat fight?

Kramer: Yeye cat fight!

Jerry: Because men think if women are grabbing and clawing at each other there's a chance they might somehow kiss.

Kramer: T-t-t-t...

I had to resort to watching the video clips on MSN.Com of the sports that I liked but hardly promoted: Shooting, Fencing, Equestrian. Did anyone watch those events? Fencing is fascinating, I took it in High School and it was mentally and physically tough./Just Asking - seoul62.....

Look, I like amazonian women in skimpy threads just like the next guy, but once in a while I want to see some death and destruction (boxing, basketball) while I am having my cigarette

Have an ultimate fighting event for amazonian women in skimpy threads, problem solved.

You obviously haven’t got a clue. What the women’s team is accomplishing is nearly as phenomenal as Phelps. They are amazing, and I am personally quite happy and proud of them!

Nice backside, but ruined by a tramp stamp. Why must beautiful young women ruin their bodies with tattoos?

You forgot to say that Misty & Kerri had won their last 107 matches. The Gold Madel game is coming up next.
