I wandered into the living room earlier and caught the women's synchronized diving. China has just dove and the camera was on the two ladies. Something with the water and light angle made their swimsuits completely see through.
All in their chinese A cup glory.

Thank god someone has giffed this in direct defiance of the IOC. I hope they can find refuge from the orbital laser hunter-seekers that have surely been dispatched to kill them for the transgression.



Can a Swiss please tell me if this is the fault of being German-Swiss, French-Swiss or Italian-Swiss.

how come there are like fifty different swimming events, shouldn't it just be who is the fastest at each distance?

The equivalent would be say, backwards running 100/200/5000m/etc, normal forward running, side stepping, skipping, and hopping

but no you wouldn't see that, because it's stupid, just like having a hundred different swimming styles where one guy can load up on 10 medals

Because its easier to turn your sport into a massive jobs program if you can find enough suckers willing to care about a 50m difference. Every nation that wants to buy their way onto the world stage and boost their image as a medal farm first spends heavily on swimming coaches.

50 years ago someone had some real foresight.

I mean, kind of, yeah.

Get rid of the dumb "sports", focus on running, jumping, throwing, etc. Get rid of all this poo poo that mixes things together, and eliminate the 40 variations of every discipline. The world basically treats the games like this anyway, where the big events get all the coverage, and everything else gets no coverage or a little blurb about the results.

An Iraqi went down and you saw a brief glimpse of a dude tearing rear end in the background waving his shirt over his head.

Then it cut to a wide shot and about six security guys swarmed him and carried him off.

I was actually curious earlier and looked up the US gymnasts ages:

Simone Biles: 19
Gabby Douglas: 20
Madison Kocian: 19
Laurie Hernandez: 16
Aly Raisman: 22

That doesn't make it less creepy calling them ugly/slutty though.
