Olympics

So yeh, the Olympics are upon us yet again, it's wierd, but no matter how hard I try, I just can't seem to give a damn about it. I understand it is a big thing in the global point of view but to me... nyeh. I have however found a post online that seems to cater to my opinions, hence I present to you: Mr. Ryan Sohmer:

Winter Olympics, Summer Olympics, whatever. What the world (represented in this case scenario by me) wants to see is The Medieval & Gladiatorial Olympics.
Who wants to watch a dude in a snowsuit hop around moguls when you could be seeing two guys in armor, armed with a lance and bearing down on each other riding an 800 pound horse?
Figure skating is all well and good, but I think I'd prefer watching the Russian Contender being cornered by three tigers while armed with a Swiss army knife.
Forget your indoor arenas and pretty little skating rinks. If I'm buying tickets for this thing, I want to be sitting in the Coliseum with the roar of a blood thirsty crowd behind me.
You want me to get into the Olympics? That's how you're going to do it.
Or, and here's a plan B now, you legalize all drugs and supplements and watch the mutants go.
Sometimes it feels like I'm the only one thinking.

So yeh, I wanted to make a post about this, what would you guys think about this kind of olympics? Here is a place to discuss it OR suggest other ideas and hear everyone shoot them down with AK-47's (and of course you can discuss the EXISTING Olympics and all the mayhem that follows with it)

Basically all Olympics related stuff goes here.

Wow someone else reads "Least I Could Do"

Anywho I was watching bits of the Winter Olympics, the figure skaters are wonderful, I wish I could do what they do sometimes (ie the triple axels not the slipping over).

I read LICD too :P

And I have to say, I was sorry to hear about the bobsledder who died. Looked like a nasty accident, and so close to having his dream of competing come true. :(
