the maybe over but they are still playing high lights on a few channels.. probably will for the rest of this week or so...The Olympics are over! Hooray!
I hear ya. I'm the same way with the Olympics... Sometimes I get into them and other times I just don't care.the maybe over but they are still playing high lights on a few channels.. probably will for the rest of this week or so...
idk, i got into them some what this year.. i know they're silly and all, but there was nothing else to really watch on tele, and it gets me in a rather patriotic mood, something i don't find myself in very often tbh..
i get like that with a lot of sports tbh... i'm definitely not a sports fan at all, other then motor racing that is.. i used to say the only thing i hate more than football is a football fan, lol..I hear ya.

This time around I just didn't care.
I find that for sports that you're not necessarily "in to" it takes a certain situation or series of events to suck the average sports fan in. IE: witnessing something early on and continuing to follow it even though you don;t know why. Getting insomnia and somehow always seeing the water polo at 2am every damn night even when your not planing it! etc etc. Stuff like that.i get like that with a lot of sports tbh... i'm definitely not a sports fan at all, other then motor racing that is.. i used to say the only thing i hate more than football is a football fan, lol..
some of the sports are kinda silly as well imo.. fucking hand ball is an olympic sport?? really, wtf do you know that got a ride to such and such college on a handball scholarship?? lol, me either, but anyhoo's, i guess someone plays it.. some of the games are rather slow and boring to watch on tv as well imo, no real ohh and ahh moments if you know what i mean..
i got into watching the us women's team early on this time around though and kind of got into it.. the game against canada was amazing.. us was behind the whole game only to win in 30 seconds left of added time.. a real nail biter..
then the game against japan for the gold was pretty good as well.. we went up early and held the lead the whole game, but japan had some chances that still made it a good game..
nah, it made perfect sense to me amaximus... i never watch soccer or football or w/e you want to call it, but knew that the us womens team was a favorite to win the gold, and some how got sucked into for the whole series for the most part..I find that for sports that you're not necessarily "in to" it takes a certain situation or series of events to suck the average sports fan in.

I know at the start of the last winter Olympics I got tanked and had a 3 day hangover. It just so happens I laid around for 3 days just drinking water, smoking up and generally recovering. Well As it worked out I ended up watching curling or some shit for hours on end for those 3 days. needless to say I was heavily into the Olympics that year and followed it through to the end!
This year I turned on the opening ceremony and didnt "get it". I laughed at how cheesy it was, turned it off and never came back.
^^^^Whoa, That all seems too complicated now. maybe this doesn't make sense. Where's my pipe?
You'll shoot your eye out kid! I love that fucking movie! haha. TBS baby, 24 hours of a christmas story! (Been there, Done that!)nah, it made perfect sense to me amaximus... i never watch soccer or football or w/e you want to call it, but knew that the us womens team was a favorite to win the gold, and some how got sucked into for the whole series for the most part..
and lol, i used to do heroin years ago, and the year after my gf and i broke up i was super depressed come xmas time, so of course i was using heavily.. i would do some dope, nod out and fall asleep while watching a christmas story.. i would wake back up and it would be almost at the same exact point in the movie when i fell asleep.. i did this about 4 or 5 times over the 24 hours the movie was on...
