Olympic Ungreatness

February 20th, 2006 at 11:48 am by Preston Taylor Holmes

Have I mentioned how much I hate the Olympics?

Even so, the boys over at Team Swap have some ice skating photos that made me chuckle.

If I didn’t know that 96% of all male skaters were gay,
I would think he was tryin’ to throw a hump into her.

In other Olympic news, the U.S. women’s curling team has been ELIMINATED from medal contention.

I just have to point this out – Curling – a sport where people push things around on ice with a broom – was too taxing for our women’s team. I say it’s time for the U.S. women’s team to get back in the kitchen, pick up a broom and practice, practice, practice.

Yeah, I went there.

   Curling is better known as “bowling with land mines.” Apparently Hamas and Al-Qaeda are putting together teams for the 2010 Winter Olympics.

   Geez Preston, you trying to be out Bryant (“Gumby”) Gumball for craziest Olympic comments?

   Hey, that should be a new sport — beats the hell out of curling.

   If the US had a Curling team, it would be comprised of nothing but eskimos. Or as Dave Attell calls them – “snow Mexicans”.

   If they really want Curling to be a Olympic Sport it should be played the way the games Scottish intended it to be played….drunk.
