the olympic games...

"maybe i should try chugging beer instead..."

the art of canadians whining about how "disappointing" olympic medal results were in athens has reached a feverish pitch. it's seems like clockwork. in my memory, it's always been this way. poor canadians were kept off of the gold medal podium in 1976 and 1988 when they were in the homeland. on it goes... (the exception to the rule was in 1984 in los angeles, when we hit the motherload, but those were the olympics where the USSR and eastern bloc allies decided to stay home for the potato harvest.)

i don't know if we should pump more money into "amateur" sports.

maybe we as canadians are just not talented enough. maybe sports ain't our thang. you can't be good at everything. maybe we should just drink beer. we're good at that. i bet we can out chug most of the world except for maybe the aussies.

there's those aussies (hereafter referred to as the "wankas") again. i'm tired of the constant comparisons with the wankas. why can't we pump a billion dollars into sports like they've done? why can't we consolidate our sports federations into "super" training centres like in wankaland? why can't we out think our wanka bruthas? brutal. maybe we need to import more sheep and rename the arctic the "great white outback".

you have to respect the wankas for what they've done at olympic competitions.

here's to a job well done... struth, eh.

i'm envious. struth, again.
