Olympics, Part 2

Congrats to Michael Phelps to beings the greatest Olympic champion of all time. Its been a while since one athlete has captivated as many people as Phelps has this past week. Seriously, this dude is a freak of nature with his flexible shoulders, size 10000 shoes, and double jointed ankles. The dude was born to swim. Sadly, the swimming events are over so now my focus switches to basketball. Anyone see that beat down we gave to Spain? Its weird to see NBA players actually playing defense. Who would of thought that when you play defense you win?

I only caught the end of the Opening Ceremonies so I missed all the cool stuff. I heard there was some pretty cool stuff with boxes going on. But I am disgusted to hear about what China did to a little girl with an amazing singing voice. For those who don't know, there was a little girl that was supposed to sing but her face was deemed "not suitable." So what did China do? They found a "prettier" girl to lip sync to the "ugly" girl's voice. First of all, what kind of message does that send to little girls? You aren't pretty enough to do this or that. That is a load of crap. Secondly, get over yourself China. Stop trying to make yourself look good when you have the spotlight on you and then be shady and corrupt behind closed doors. Just in case you want to read the article click here.
