Olympic Haters

Every time the Summer Games come around people say things like, "The Olympics are boring" or "I like the Winter Games better" or "Who cares about gymnastics or swimming?" Fuck that, don't believe the hate.

Only during the Olympics is it not only completely acceptable, but encouraged, to make thinly veiled offensive comments about another country and cover it up with the guise of nationalism. "The French really surrendered in that 4x100 relay, did they see some Germans?" "That Chinese guy can't win a sprint, he's way too short." "Of course the Kenyans are good at marathons, they run from cheetahs all day."

The US Gymnastics team is all kinds of jailbait hot. American swimmers straight ran a train on the competition. Top all of that off with the cockiest athlete since Neon Deion in his prime, Usain Bolt, and you have two weeks of festivities that make me so excited I could run through a goddamn brick wall.

How can you hate on that?



Pull your head out of your ass Olympic haters.
