Lesser-Sports, Greater-Sports, and A Whole Lotta Snarking: NBC Olys Day One

NBC=Nothing But Clucking :scream:

Men never did have music. The women used to have someone playing piano - live. I don't remember if it was always the same piece or not. I don't think the gymnast got any say in what was played, but I could be wrong. Then they changed so the gymnast could choose their own recorded music. We could always go back to that - not.
They had the same piano music for compulsories, but got to choose their own piano floor music for optionals. I'll never forget Korbut's Alley Cat (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oJXXGyVly_g) because my mum made me practice that song on piano for HOURS.

Nadia's 1976 FX (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y87BO6tnB08&feature=related) with that signature ending pose.

Luca Marin looks like he might be hott.

The only really legitimate sex-based differences between MAG and WAG are not letting the women do roll-out skills, and maybe still rings, maybe.

Just out of curiosity, what is the legitimate difference you're talking about wrt roll-out skills?

[Citlali]

I see we're pretending that lane 8 is an advantage?

:lol:

Couldn´t watch this live and even knowing what happens is still great to have the chance (thank you pirate NBC)

[Theatregirl1122]

Dear god, it's insane how dominant this performance was from Ryan. He was leading after the opening lap in his WORST stroke.

the outside smoker isnt just an urban legend! :lol:

[Matryeshka]

Now lane 8 is a disadvantage.

The most shocking thing to me about this race is that Michael lost the medal in this race in the free.

[Cloudy_Gumdrops]

Damn, Lochte totally dominated that race.

[numbers123]

it looks like Michael just didn't have the stamina to finish the race. I love how Rowdy has been going back and forth in his support of Michael. :rolleyes:

[PrincessLeppard]

So is "My Time" going to be mentioned every. single. time. Lochte races? Because I may have to lob a shoe at my teevee.

[rfisher]

PML Lochte had time to take a nap before the rest of the boys made the wall. Go Gators. One of my fb friends is from Florida and they're all a little nuts after this event.

I know! :confused:, beetwen this and the MAG qualifiers I can't help but think that these olympics might be filled with some upsets.
