Anyone Enjoying The Olympics?

When I watched snowboarding the other night I feel like almost everyone fell! I know they were complaining about the Pike they use to do their tricks. I guess it must be more difficult than usual maybe bc everyone was busting their butts.

I bet Shawn regrets pulling out of the free cross now that he didn't even make the podium in the snowboarding half pipe.  When he was interviewed (after not placing) if he was surprised or what would he have done differently.  He said, "I would not wait three days to go by without practicing just before trying for the gold."  What??  I think he got a little lax and underestimated his and the other competitors abilities.

That is what i told my wife when we were watching it.  I don't know the guy except what I have seen on tv over the past several years, but he seemed kind of arrogant.  I guess the lesson here is don't get to big for your britches.  If I am correct in that he didn't take the competition seriously, that is a shame because he is truly a talented snowboard rider.  Probably the best.

 
Yea that I don't get. To be in the Olympics is huge success. I guess he got complacent. Its just a shame he's not getting any younger. Sometimes people need a wake up call maybe this is his.

 
It's like a couple of the figure skaters being interviewed today.  "I just hope I make it into the top 10"  WHAT?  why wouldn't they try and go after the gold?  Nobody knows who is going to fall or mess up.  It's like they came from the league where everyone gets a participation medal.  It's like some of the US athletes aren't hungry for the win.  I just hope I can tie my shoes or some other foolish thing.

 
That's how kids sports are. Everyone wins. You can't slaughter a team that's not nice. Its sickening. I heard how some teachers can't use a red pen when marking a paper. Its too harsh on the little snow flakes.... BS grow some balls!!

You are funny and oh so right!! There's a whole school of thought that you never tell a child "No" bc it can be damaging or some nonsense. You are supposed to just change how u would say no with a positive spin or some BS. This is a whole other subject but we are teaching kids not to be competitors or to know right from wrong. When I was a kid I got my ass kicked when I disobeyed my Parents and that was that!!

 
Exactly mrsbeez its not right. Its not reality either so when they get older their going to get crushed and have no fight in them. Dumbing down the society its happening everywhere. I tell ya it makes me sick. Everyone isn't a winner but everyone can be if they put their mind and action towards it!<---------true story

 
Even my husband loves ice dancing? And jpmorgan, your wife is a badass, totally impressed, can you give any not exact indication of her age? Wish I had that much energy, so jealous, in a good way!

  4. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Robert Duvall and a handful of others were a younger actors coach and always said no one worked as hard as those guys did. Robert Duvall and rest would read the full script 228 over and over, then after the last read they would go into how to perform their character. The young man had made it to meet Al who are greats and pull them to the side. And explain what his coach said. They all looked back and said out of every role you’ve seen me in. I have read it 228 by myself. 🫡 🫢 🫢 🫢

  6. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: Yeah Robert Duvall passing is a hard one. RIP
  7. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Damn. Just heard Robert Duvall passed away Sunday. That’s a tough one. He’s one of my favorite actors. From Lonesome Dove to the Godfather and many others. We will miss you Mr Duvall. You entertained us for 7 decades. RIP

  10. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I always thought I should’ve been born in a much earlier time but I will say, i do enjoy my Xbox and occasional TV series tho 😂
  11. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I just wish the opioid epidemic never happened. Fk the turn of the century (which would be cool no doubt)! Many of my friends and family would’ve ended up in asylums like so many others. I just wish I could get back all those I’ve lost since the start
  12. L @ Layne_Cobain: 1914 I meant
  13. L @ Layne_Cobain: I often wish I lived during the turn of the century or at least before the Harrison narcotics act or whatever I think it was 1924 the fun ended but anyway yeh being able to get laudanum, ❄️ and amphetamine at the local friendly pharmacy
  14. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Chew on the leaves with a bit of slaked lime and enjoy the mild boost you get from the raw base.
  15. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I’m sure you know the folks in the mountainous regions along South Americas pacific side buy cócà leaves at the local farmers market just to help acclimate to the higher elevation when they have to head up into the hills.
  16. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I would certainly have bought it, swilled it, enjoyed it…. Why not? A little boost in your juice isn’t going to hurt anyone.
  17. R @ Royboy99: Exports were reported to have around 7.2mg per FL OZ, it’s success is what actually led to Coca Cola
  18. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Having cramps and husband thinks you’re acting hysterical (ie. PMS) the doc would either perform a certain massage to relieve the strains of motherhood and family life of that time or send you down to the local apothecary for a bottle of laudanum… A tincture of alcohol and 10% òpìųm. Fun days huh?
  19. R @ Royboy99: @malestrom: yeah thats it, my bad Mariani, yeah i considered that and also its ROA, which was oral so the bioavailability was lower than insufflation, higher degree of purity tho and longer duration … there was a significant marked increase of patents filed by Edison during the time it was released in the US. Presidents were known to use it as well, and the Queen. The pope awarded the wine the Vatican gold medal award
  20. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I think it was called vin Mariani. But yeah, it was all the rave back in the turn to the 20th century. Original formula Coca Cola did it for a while too. I think it was pretty weak though. Something like 200 mg per liter of wine. Enough to maybe give you a little push but unless you could pound some serious alcohol, it’d be hard to really feel the effects before the ethyl knocked you down on the ground. It was an interesting time period. Laudanum was a “hysterical” woman’s best friend.
