I saw your thread, even to have a name is worthy

that's a cool song, they play it pretty regularly on my local radio station in Atlanta 92.9 Dave f.m.

Three BMX races this morning, two wicked crashes.

 

[Axver]

Hi Daniel and Ian.

Three BMX races this morning, two wicked crashes.

Damn, we've got equestrian and race walking here.

 

[Axver]

Wait, I take that back. BMX on now!

 

[*browneyedgirl*]

I dunno what it was, but like half an hour ago, part of my brain turned off, like when i'm drunk. But I haven't touched alcohol since Sunday.

i know what you meam

Hey Ax.

Sarah Walker managed to finish second safely in her first semi final. The British girl who's apparently her biggest opposition took quite a tumble and finished last her in first semi final.

Unfortunately our guy caused the crash in the men's first semi final.

 

[coolian2]

4 races, 3 crashes.


Aw yeah.

 

[coolian2]

Actually, I think there should be a medal presentation for worst crash. We'd have another gold.

Awesome, go Walker. They just showed the British girl's race now; quite a nasty tumble she took there.

Is Willers out, or is this like the earlier rounds where they run multiple races?

[Axver]

Oh, here comes Willers' race now!

 

[Reggo]

I think there is a category for best wipeout at the X Games.

 

[coolian2]

Multiple races.


Willers crash is a crack up.

 

[Axver]

Willers may be out of the tournament now if our commentators are to be believed, but that's one of the best crashes I've ever seen! I can't believe how he totally just took out everyone in his way. I say that was worth it.

 

[Reggo]

I think I'll be watching the BMX races tomorrow morning.

 

[Axver]

I think I'll be watching the BMX races tomorrow morning.

It's quite possibly the most entertaining thing at the Games! I love it. Initially, I was thinking "why the hell is BMX in the Olympics?", but now I see why! Awesome viewing.

And I see either our commentators were wrong or I misheard them, re: New Zealand's Willers. Here's hoping he manages to get good results in the remaining races and creeps through to the final.

I loved that one of the guys he took out accidentally wandered into his path and that was what fucked him up!

 

[Axver]

Nice, safe run by Walker in her second semi.

 

[coolian2]

Another brilliant crash.

Unlike car racing, BMX is great because the crashes aren't why you watch, they're just a bonus.

The Aussie girls took each other out! The commentators here are devastated!

And yeah, the racing itself is fucking nuts - and despite not watching for crashes, they're more frequent. God, this couldn't get more entertaining.

I'm listening to a Springsteen Setlist party

 

[coolian2]

The race walk should not be in the Olympics.

 

[bono_212]

Powerwalking is an olympic sport?!


WHAT THE FUCK PEOPLE?!

 

[coolian2]

Ah ha! I figured it out.

The Birds Nest Stadium looks like a less clean, more fragmented version of the way the Olympic Stadium in Sydney looks now.
