[Hamlette]

I forget this is an Olympic "sport".

Yeah, they do it better than I do but still. . .

(Sorry, way off topic.)

2. As a 3-time world champion trampolinist, I take offense to your ignorant remarks.

I just hate you and I hate your ass face.

3. And BMX too. But baseball and softball? This is their last olympics.

Seriously. They're gone after this year.

11. Didn't BMX die out in about 1986?

I used to race BMX as a kid and even I didn't think it was much of a sport. It was just something fun to do on the weekend. :)

4. Naw, really?

If they're doing it at an Olympic level, it's gotta be pretty awesome.

6. Do they still have synchronized swimming?

That's pretty goofy, IMO.

Also ... synchronized diving ---> Why? :shrug:

8. I remember a Second City skit that Martin Short was in...

about a synchronized swimming team that couldn't swim. They just stayed in the shallow end and did the arm motion stuff. :D

17. Bwaaa! Martin Short looks like he's about 12.

The expressions on their faces are priceless.

"Hey! I know you! I know you!" :rofl:

7. This is a presidential discussion?

[americanstranger]

10. Hold on, we'll turn it into one.

I sincerely believe that Obama would do way better than McCain on a trampoline.

How's that? ;)

16. in addition

McLump lacks the hand/eye coordination as well as the ability to raise his arms above his shoulders which is a requirement needed to execute the complicated moves. The one exception would be his attempt at breaking the world record in the Olympic flipflopping event.

Unfortunately, McLump looks far to fragile to be an effective Olympic Trampoline competitor.

12. The trampoline thing on The Man Show is awesome.

Think I'll check it out at the Olympics but I don't think it would be that good.
