That's my point, 1.5 BILLION dollars on sercuity for the games and there were no cops around? I think it was planned...... *X-File music*

I don't know how you people over in Greece run Olympics but is really screwed up. There was no police, yet during the the 20/50k WALK!!! walking has police, but a real sport doesn't? What the hell are they do? Are there donuts around at the time or something? Then they arrest the guy but he won't go to jail! This is his third time doing something dumb like thing and all he gets is a $3,600 fine. There are some serius problems here.

Lima isn't the megablock that didn't know the water rules, I hate that runner. This is why runners should be given knifes, but where are the Olympic police? Don't they have guards around the area? Who let this crazy freak around, I mean look at what he is wearing you know he's up to something. I would have beaten him down. If I was another runner I would go help Lima and beat the shit out of the other guy. Once again, where the hell are the cops? And why wasn't this guy arrested? Did the big guy in blue tackle the wacko? What I got from the sign is.... Israel fulflus- of prophey Say Ne---b--- Here's some more info with what looks to be a different sign... http://sports.espn.go.com/oly/summer04/tra...tory?id=1870662

Is Lima the idiot that doesn't know that the people can't hand him water? Because if he is he deserves not to win. A megablock running the race and doesn't know the rules.

A Stargate SG-1 update. The show sucks, I can't even watch the whole show at once, I need breaks, maybe that's why they made the commericals so long. Atlantis ratings are falling and it only gets better (Weir sucks!), while SG-1 is trash and is doing better each week. This shows the stupidity of America. Here's a list of the epsides so far with spoilers for them and why they suck. I was debating someone else elsewhere. New Order - Primere,only thing that furthers the story. Lockdown - On Earth, does nothing to further series, just makes more "Russia sucks" plot. Zero Hour - Another Earth based episode, still doesn't further the series, an ok episode, but has a terrible "everything is fine" ending that is really getting old. Icon - The only off world episode!!!! Could take place in any season, and if it was season 2 it would have been good but we got the "been there, done that". Avatar - If "furthered" a storyline that no one gave a shit about the first time around 6 YEARS ago. Affinity - NID Teal'c BS. In the end we find out that in 8 years of the show and the NID they have a transporter, wow. This is one of the worst episodes ever. Covenant - NID episode with so many flaws. Let's show him the truth. So if I was rich and said that their were aliens would they show me them? Not a chance, the episode was lame, but more watchable than most episodes. SACRIFICES - Teal'c sees his girlgriend agian which is ok I guess, but this comes 2 episodes after he was cheating on her. ENDGAME - NID. The first few episodes kind of furthered the Jack as leader storyline which is new, but after that it feels like we are getting leftovers from the earlier seasons and this far into the game we should get better.

You can just buy the set and get the biggest picture. :-D *Dumb fools wouldn't deliver my sets on a Saturday.*

A survey a few months backed ask what they could improve and the leader was "bigger images" so I guess they listened. They did it quicklytoo I was trying to deside if I should buy the Golden Dragon set for half off and in like an hour all the pictures were changed.

People just think it won't sell on it, which is dumb, plus how hard is it to port a game to the third system? It's just dumb what game companies do even more so considering most of the SG-1 fans are Gamecube/Nintendo fans.

You will see the game, kinda, in "action" (there is no action in SG-1 anymore it's a snooze fest) in an season 8 episode. The creaters said that it was close to what the game would look like, so it should look nice. I'm not buying it through because it will still prob be crap and the dumbasses won't release it for the GameCube, so they can go screw themselves.

there is a difference dyip, this is an organized Olympic "sport" that you win a medal in. And they want to get rid of baseball/softball, but keep the walking.

And isn't that how companies make money? Why do you think most Train sets are only from Lego Store? It's so they can get the most money. Trains are expensive, but if you don't like it then don't buy it, or wait for the big sets to go online at WalMart and Toy's R Us, that's what I did. 400 pieces for $40 is the normal price for Legos, if not a good price for that ammount of pices.

No it's like the Santa Fa one, hell so far it even has the same people.

She's the fastest walker!!! :rolleyes: I watched the men do this, it was the funniest thing I have ever seen. Can't bend your knees that much and they look so dumb. Then they had water bottles every 10 feet and they would just throw them on the ground after having a few sips.

Well I posted it yesterday, prob before they had the new medals in. There's a link, I'm sure they update it. http://sports.yahoo.com/oly/medals

Of course some countries have more people, I mean there are 1.5 billion in China and they are still in second. It doesn't really matter, it's more of a "Damn a person went this fast" or "Iraq might win it's second medal ever!".

Micheal Philps got 8 medals, 6 of which are gold.

I thought they said if he won 8 medels he would tie the record? Of course this is NBC over here, they are dumbies. But I do know that he has vowed out of the next race. After winning 5 golds, and two bronze I'm sure he is tied. Do the Olympics count Asia and Europe as one continect because there are only 5 rings.

The USA is still a country even through it has Satates. :-P It's like Australia, it has different parts but is still a country.

Europe is not a country so I'm going to have to say none.

So do I, I love the swimming part, I missed the diving part if they even showwed them at all. The water events are ending through which is sad because I don't care about the other events.

I was thinknig the same thing, are swimmings in there prime when they are younger or older? There was a women that won a medal and she is 27/28 so I guess he still has two more Olympics left in him. Are you sure it was the world record or the Olympic record they are different most of the time and I didn't hear about him beating a world record.

No one made a swimming topic? Yet we have two biking ones..... So I made one up. :P American Michael Phelps is kicking everyones megablocks. Last I heard he won 3 gold medals and 2 bronze and he still has three more events to swim. He's only 19 too so he can be kicking megablocks in like the next 3 Olympics too. :D

Yes the minuim wage in America is $5.25 which is a joke. In the south things cost much less than in the north so they have the $5.25 dollar minuim wage and it is ok for them, you can go to a movie for that much. In Massachusetts it's minuim wage is $6.75 and a cost of a movie is $9.75.

I like... AT-AT AT-TE Republic Gunship But I voted for the gunship.

That Makes since because the Euro and the Dollar (US) and about the same, so you can't gte it for that much cheaper. :P
