Exotic Country Sweeps Medals In Boring Sport Nobody Watches

[jberryhill]

I heard on NBC just before a cut to a block of commercials. Something about some weird ass country nobody's ever heard of is really really good at some weird ass game that kids play. Lawn darts or croquet or horseshoes. Some shit like that.

3. I like the off the wall Olympic events.

Non stop track and field is boring. It's why I quit watching the Olympics.

4. Non stop track and filed is why I watch the Olympics

If it has a judge it ain't a sport.

8. Umpires. Referees.

Whatever they call the dude in tennis.

Many sports have judges, they're just called something else.

9. Really?? Gymnastics, skating, boxing, diving, wrestling...

Or is this really just another equestrian sports slam?

5. I'm visiting my mom

She's got the Coca Colympics or whatever they are on. They're showing gymnasts now. I like how the announcers are making excuses for institutionalized child abuse used to bring extremely temporary glory to a country.

But only if each contestant is required to consume a pint of ale per round.
