Olym-picks Day 9

Gees, this sh*t just got real.

In sporting competition, rivalries emerge that ignite the sport. It seems Georgie K and Ryan Smith have become the Carl Lewis and Ben Johnson of the Olym-picks (there’s a joke in that too). It’s all friendly at the moment but as we count down to the final day on Friday, it could get dirty.

And, just when we thought it couldn’t get any funnier, Alex delivered something that will keep us laughing at Sportsbet for weeks. To give it context, Georgie K is one of our more proactive and favourite Sploggers.

Yesterday’s winners included Jackson, Alex F, Cameron, Domenic and, well, you know who, with a bronze. Cameron is just outside the top five and with a late push could reach the top! It’s never too late to enter.

Full details of the competition, check out the Opening Ceremony blog post.

    Overheard this on the bus today and was dying of laughter inside:

    Girl 1: “Hey if I trained like really hard I reckon I could make the olympics next year”
    Girl 2: “You’re so stupid you can’t make the olympics next year”
    Girl 1: “Why not, if I trained like really hard I could”
    Girl 2: “No because the olympics aren’t on next year”
    Girl 1: “Wait what? Why not?”
    Girl 2: “They’re on every two years so you have to wait until then. But you should definitely train for it”
    Girl 1: “Nah two years is too long I’ll just get a job selling nail polish or something instead”

    Not a single brain between them

    After a close duel in the quarter-final of the men’s 66-kilogram judo competition between Japan’s Ebinuma Masashi and South Korea’s Cho Jun-Ho, the referees awarded the bout to Cho. But when the crowd started to boo, the ruling was reviewed and the decision was overturned.

    With the continuous focus on ‘winning at all cost’, it is indeed a pleasure to witness the spirit and embodiment of ‘sportsmanship’ being lived out by these three athletics. In my eyes, they are the ‘real’ winners in life.

    Revised lyrics in reposnse to – http://www.theage.com.au/olympics/off-the-field/kangaroo-condoms-get-a-hop-on-london-organisers-20120807-23ss2.html:

    I come from a land down under
    Where beer does flow and men shag
    Can’t you see, can’t you feel your boner?
    Before you hump, cover your gland down under.” (Yeahhh!)

    Lying in a den in Bombay
    With a stiffy and hopin’ for a shag
    I said to the woman, “Are you trying to tempt me
    Because I come to hump a plenty?”
    And she said,

    “Oh, you come from a land down under? (oh yeah yeah)
    Where women shag and men hump?
    Can’t you see, can’t you feel your boner? (ooohh)
    Before you hump, cover your gland down under.
