If Bob Costas had come out in support of LGBT athletes during the Beijing Olympics I might of had enough interest to watch, but now, I just feel like having a chicken sammich.

Sometimes I crave those chargrilled chicken wraps and a sweet tea from Chik fil A...especially after a night of lesbian craziness with my wife.

I have actually had to root against the United States women's beach volleyball players at times because they are not properly attired. When Kessy/Ross played Argentina the other night, Argentina was properly attired so I almost rooted for them.

Watched the synchronized diving event in which I thought I was at a plumbing convention. More crack showed which I mentioned on my facebook page. Some ladies didn't like it like me. I did have a few ladies say they enjoyed everything.

Joe Buck? I have read "The Good Earth" by Pearl S. Buck. Any relation?
There was drought in that book, and food riots too.
Look at the MCS heading for us.
Sometimes radar makes me downright gay and giddy.

I only watch the rhythmic gymnastics...to see which one is the most flexible.

"Hopefully, that MCS won't get swallowed by Topeka again."
What is it that makes Topeka such a storm whore?

I like to watch womens weightlifting. Especially the snatch and clean jerk parts.

The year that Xtreme Full-Contact Spelling Bee becomes an Olympic sport will be the year I start watching this hoo-de-doo.
CWGOKU 9 months, 3 weeks ago
Great, now I have to look up "hoo-de-doo". Funny though, Snap

Watched some women's water polo today. They had an under water shot and one member of the spanish team grabbed the suit of someone from the American team, and lets just say there was a good half second to full second of a full boob shot on national television.

Hey, Agno: Those signals are highly critical to beach volleyball and I wish people would stop making light of them. I'm glad for the close coverage of them. The closer, the better. It's kinda ironic: catchers show show their signals in one place, beach VB gals in quite another. I know which one I like better....
