Now tell me how many Gold's have the men won vs. the women in Jamaica? That is what i thought.

It doesn't matter because Jamaica are giving the USA lessons on how to sprint dope free grin and collecting more golds in the process. grin grin grin

Hmmm. . . . i can see you are not an expert when it come to Track and Field. Please come back when you are little more informed on the history and the athletes.
Re: Beijing 2008 Olympics - Athletics by EloSela(f): 4:54pm On Aug 22, 2008
The dope tests are more stringent this year. I am sure that is why the Americans are not standing out like they were before. They also have one of the largest teams with at least 5 participants in every event, another reason why they are more likely to win a medal.

We should do better because We are Better. Simply as that. It is USA vs. The World. Who cares if you beat GB in an event. People will look at you like, who gives a damn. But if you beat USA in an event, watch people go crazy for you. So all this jive over Usain Bolts means nothing. Endorsements are limited in his country. The only sponsor he will get is from Puma. . . . and even that is questionable.

Nike and Umbro are already after his ass. . . . . .
Many car companys are also sniffing Usain Bolt's legs to see how they can launch him in various commercial ads.
His book is coming out soon so things are looking bright for the Jamo boy.

Americans are dope heads. . . . . .most of the events u won in the past were all dope-induced.
Maybe u should get back in ur spandex and represent USA.
At least, we are sure u won't be pushing needles in ur veins.

Hannibal, this is your saddest statement ever. I mean i am shocked. A fellow sports fan is now giving faulty comments? Man-o-man this is truly a shame. Why don't you go and count the faulty ones vs. the legit ones. A fellow math man as your self will be enlightned.
Re: Beijing 2008 Olympics - Athletics by EloSela(f): 5:10pm On Aug 22, 2008
Please! The Americans are drug cheats and that is the only reason why they have dominated the Athletics events so far. I sincerely believe that world was duped by fakes such as Flo Jo and and even people like Carl Lewis and that those world records that have now been broken were not even real anyway.

Nigeria finally got gold her gold after 8 years no thanks to those American druggies.

Oh quiet Mufasa. . . . . any ways back to post. Yes i admit out of ALL the USA wins, 2% of it was drug related. But the rest is PURE AMERICAN TALENT.
Re: Beijing 2008 Olympics - Athletics by EloSela(f): 5:21pm On Aug 22, 2008

Please make that 40%.
If there's any justice in this world, Team USA shouldn't be competing in any athletic event.

Oka im done debating with you because when folk debate over sports, they use ACTUAL Numbers. While you on the other case are just some person who knows little to nothing about sports so they try and put in their two cents with faulty math and generalizations. Yeah go ahead and hate on Team USA. We don't need your support when we beat the world in overall Olympics.

Kensington gardens is the most expensive street in the world.
The most expensive residential house in the world stands on that street so don't compare it with anywhere in TEXAS.
Kensington gardens is customised to house kings and rich bastards.

Mind you that a four bedroom house there has the same equivalent cost of a six bedroom house in Texas. So ummm. . . .

That should tell u London is very expensive to live in.
What people pay for a 2 bedroom house is what most of y'all pay for a 6 bedroom house.
The world's most expensive house is Kensington palace gardens at 117 million pounds. . . .
Babes, when u coming in 2012, make sure u have enuff $$$ cos you'd be priced out here.
One BigMac meal would run ur Debit Card into an untimely death. grin grin

London doesn't stand a chance next to China. Not saying i like the country, but i have to admit it has a lot of history and culture. So to top that means yal better dig something good up from somewhere. Don't know where though. Anyways London just over prices things which is so pointless. Mayne i went to Harrids just to get something to where for a place i was going, one shirt alone was like freakin 450 pounds. I was like, WHAT.

Last i check we won three. Doesn't really matter. Those Jamo are still backwards when it comes to Olympics. They put all their time in one event, and are too scared to venture out of it. Too bad so sad. Even that Usain Bolts knows it. Last i read, he might be a good asset for the NFL.

U went to Harrods??  grin cheesy grin
Blimey. . . . .Harrods/Selfridges is like going to the gallows.
450 pounds is a small do. . . . . .The other day i saw a laptop going for 70,000 pounds at Selfridges.
Those peops are just fucking crazy.

Seriously, London is trying to bring everyone into this cos of it's multi-cultural kizzack.
Every known race in the city would be involved in the opening ceremony so get ready to see Makossa dancers or  Yoruba Traditional dancers.
It's going to be massive. It will be better than what we saw in China.

Mufasa keep dreaming. For me to see makossa slow on that stage, it must be that your country as lost its tea ways. What ever. Watch them show folk sippin tea sayin "Good day, Governor". So don't even try it. What ever yal do, will be demolished when they bring the Olympics back to its rightful home in the USA. Chicago to be precise.

@onyinye
If someone had told you before the Olympics that you would not have won a single gold in all those events i mentioned would you believe it?Yall should go back and regroup because the Yardies have changed the game
Even their so-called past-time (Baseball) has been taken from them by the Cubans you guys should thank God for Phelps

Actually baseball was actually a Cuban sport. That is why if you ever look at the roaster of these teams, you are bound to see atleast three Cubans. Anyways, don't worry TEAM USA shall always prevail. They said that we will lose in volleyball: we won. They say women's soccer will lose: we won. They say men's basketball was finished: going for gold. So never under estimate the power of USA.

Forget those stuffs about tea sippin. . . . . .Thatz just so pre-millennium. cool

No one is sippin those kizzack again. . . . .This is the new Britain.
U would see the Yardies, Carribeanz, Africans and Asians doing their thang on the opening ceremony.
No thrillz, No frillz. . . . . .we are talking 4 years here not 4 days.
UK would put China into shame. Trust me on this, Pumbaa.
