Out of sheer boredom, I tuned in for a few minutes of the Olympics.

Beach volleyball ?Badmitton ?

Saints preserve us ! What's next ??

New 2008 Olympic Events

1.Hop,Skip, and Scream: Generously proportioned female contestants,spaced 3 meters apart for safety,attempt to put on a pair of blue jeans,that are 2 sizes too small.

2.Commutation: Male and/or female contestants,driving really huge SUVs,must navigate a ten kilometer track-liberally equipped with dangerous intersections and short-duration signals-while conducting a telephone conversation (using hand-held cell phones),and sipping a very hot beverage (coffee ,cocoa,or tea).Object is to reach a finish line parking lot,and enter the door before competitors.Extra points awarded for stylish hand gestures,and for quality and volume of vocal commentary.

How about it Freepers ?? Can you suggest some more New Olympic Events ??

How about synchonized dog walking? Complete with pooper-scoopers, which must be used to scoop real dog poop during the event.

This could consist of teams of four or more. To be entirely PC, person and dog should be considered as one team of two contestants.

Beach volleyball?

What's wrong with beach volleyball? Perhaps you would prefer more traditional sports like the women's shot put and discus.

Yes, I have a suggestion! For once I'd like to turn on the TV and see men participating in the Olympics!

How about Spittle Flinging? Howard Dean and Al Gore would medal for sure.

Or Whining and Whimpering? John Kerry would take the gold (http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1196494/posts).

Or Lying? Man, that'd be a competition. I still think Bill Clinton would score a perfect 10. There's just none better.

I couldn't agree more. I've already lost interest with a week to go.

Breaking News Marathon.

1,000 Freepers, sitting with a computer and television, set to Fox News, all wait for the starting signal, Fox breaking news wav, and rush to see who posts first.

Extra points credited for most unusual spelling errors with special commendation for including any word that becomes Freeper lore.

I'll start watching the Olympics when they include "bull riding". The most exciting sport of all. Both participants, the bull & the rider, are supreme athletes.

Good, it's not just me. I have tuned into the Olympics at odd times, day/night, workday/weekend, and wonder where the male athletes are.

Do the men compete next week? Or are they wearing bikinis and confusing me by looking like women?

Hey Spots! How ya doin? I'm great. Just wondering where all the men are at the Olympics. All week whenever I tune in it's women in bikinis. Now there's a women's marathon in bikinis. Like millions of people, I see no reason to watch. Thank goodness for FOX News.
