Wow I just read that there are hot German Olympians posing for Playboy. I figured this board would be all over this already. Are you guys too obsessed with underage girls to find out about this? They are: Katharina Sholz (field hockey) Nicole Reinhardt (kayak) Petra Niemann (sailing) Romy Tarangul (judo) I'm not going to link the pics, you can google them yourself.
My assistant told me about it because her son and husband are into dirt bike racing. She claims the sport is much bigger in the U.S. and worldwide than many people think. I guess.
Yeah, I felt bad for him too. Whoever said he was trying to use his injury as an excuse it certainly did not look like that.
He's from Kentucky living in Texas... I would say that gives him two chances in his background to be a congenial guy. I am recording it so I haven't seen the interview yet. But I think he deals pretty well with the media.
U.S. track and field sucks. Maybe ESPN was right, track and field in this country is at an all-time low.
if i was the one responsible, i would ban those doping completely from the sport b/c that's cheating. but i'm not in charge. that was my opinion, to ban china from olympic competition for 12 yrs (3 olympics) but i'm sure the IOC won't do that. cheating is cheating. no way to slice that. you can't spare the athletes out there who put in all the work going by the rules while the ones who cheat win. it's not whining. there's controversy about it b/c something must be up.
it is. colleges all across the country are not giving away scholarships (hell some schools don't in general anymore) like they used to. there is no motivation in america to do track and field. if i was a kid, i'd be practicing my basketball or baseball or football where i can earn millions.
individuals forever yes. if i see marion jones competing for the US again, i'll never cheer for them again. and i'm fine with banning US track and field for 3-4 olympics. i'm not against that. but marion jones cheating is HER choice. she made the decision to dope. nobody in the US track and field organization made her use steroids. here we have CHINA as a country and as a gymnastics organization covering up the age of a very young teenager, who i'm sure does not know what's going on. if in fact she's not 16, i'm sure it wasn't HER thinking. i'm sure it wasn't her going to her chinese officials saying i should lie about my age. it's the CHINESE OFFICIALS themselves. so in track and field, it's due to the individuals making dumb decisions so ban all of those who cheated forever for all i care. here we can ban china b/c i'm sure china is responsible for all of this (hiding these documents). that chinese girl is not that powerful.
