My Olympic Thoughts
Okay, so indulge me. My name is John and I'm an Olympic junkie...
I was watching speed skating last night and I gotta say, the uniforms this Olympics are FUG-LEE! The Canadian uniform isn't so bad except they all seem to be about a size too big for the competitors and those red 'pectoral' patches look horrible, particularly on the women. Further in speed skating... anyone see that Russian uniform??? Looks like it would be more at home hanging in a window in Versaille than on a skater. And the Dutch... well the Dutch uniform is so ORANGE, that I had to put on my sunglasses. They should be fined for that much orange in a single uniform. On an upside, I also watched the pairs figure skating and that Chinese couple, the Zhangs... man she took a wicked aweful fall (after her partner threw her high in the air, she bailed and landed HARD with her knee bent at a bizarre angle). I thought for sure they would pull out, but after shaking off the jitters, they got back in there and skated AMAZINGLY well and got a silver medal. THAT, my friends is a life defining moment and a lesson to us all. I am SO impressed by their gritty toughness. |
