Torino 2006: XX Olympic Winter Games (February 10th - 26th)

I saw a site on Yahoo bout how Bode was talkin bout his trip to da Olympics quote "I rocked here" and how he thought da "nightlife was great." It's such a waste that he came wit such promise and he did nothin. But more importantly he came as a representative of da US and he comes off as a wastin *******....which he is. I don't want to see him again representin us.

Yep, hes a loser.

Overall, I think we did really piss poor job over there, we should be embarassed. We put alot of money on these teams and athletes, and this is what we get in return?

I agree that we didn't do well in Torino. This has to be the worst Games I've ever seen for a powerhouse like the United States of America. The athletes involved in team sports didn't play as a team, and we were embarrassed by that worthless piece of crap, Bode Miller, Chad Hedrick and Shani Davis's ongoing power struggle/feud, as well as the U.S. women's ski team in their quest to make fashion statements. Guh!

I'm glad the Games are over. I've had enough.

It seems that the US teams and athletes have become so caught up in the media, endorsements, and pointless drama amongst themselves that they have forgotten the real reason that they are at the Olympics in the first place: to compete in their event and represent their country. It's a shame and unless we correct this bad habit we are going to be clowns to the rest of the world. I usually can't wait to see all the events at the Olympics but this year I was tired of it all because of all the dumb shit we did in front of the world. Oh well. Peace.
