I'd rather concentrate our efforts on getting mud-wrestling into the olympics.

i used to be a swimmer, and when i guy can sprint 50 meters in 11 seconds, and pace 50 meters  at 15 seconds it amazes me.

Well, that's a bit of an exaggeration. On a good day, I could pull a 12. I'm more long distance though, versus long distance.

Anyway, 11 ain't all that great, even for High School. The good people get low 10's or 9's.

Having just seen the Mens 4x100m Relay I think we can pretty much accept that this topic is moot.

Its not overrated right now. When those crazy, undetectable steroid drugs get involved it will be though.

I dunno....I'd run less if it wasn't for neds........

I feel sorrt for the blokes who do the walking and have to practice through city streets.  Well, as sorry as you can for someone who counts mincing as an olympic sport.

Serbia (and Montenegro) just lost 3 events where they were the favourites. Basketball against Argentina (82:83), waterpolo and volleyball against I don't know who. Also, football, two miserable losses, and I'm talking silver platter here (5:1 in one game, and something equally humiliating in the other.) If nothing else, I was counting on a medal, possibly gold, in basketball.

But on the bright side, we got silver in air-rifle marskmanship.
Yay! :hopping: :hopping:
