I was in a hurry and couldn't think of the event title. It was the half pipe. Shaun White's third gold metal in four trips to the Olympics.

Are you really as unpleasant as you come across?

I didn't know we dis agreed.

My aged memory is a blessing in that .... every day is Christmas morning and each thought is an unopened present.

Shaun White was so into himself and trying to strike a photo op pose, he dragged the flag on the ground for a hundred yards on camera before someone took it from him .... screw Shaun White.

Listening to the pre-Olympic announcements it was exciting on their part to have the “team look like America” than excellence of performance. So our team has representative minorities and sexual deviants like the population, and few Olympic medals. It’s all a matter of where you place your priorities.

I suspect one reason is instead of focusing on winning their sport, they are focusing on virtual signaling in front of the cameras.

Have you seen the picture with 2 labs, a yellow and a black? The black dog has a sign around his neck that says “Black Labs Matter”, and the sign on the yellow Lab says “All Labs Matter”. :-)
