    Arrow The 2012 Olympics? "Bah, humbug!

    I believe Britain did a marvelous job hosting and putting together the venue for the 2012 Olympic in London, congrats to the organizers, i'm sure it wasn't easy. (I loved hearing McCartney singing "Hey Jude" at the opening ceremonies)

    Having said that, I can say that without a doubt I've had almost no interest in watching the 2012 Olympics and I didn't watch much of the prior two Olympics either. To be honest, I couldn't give a fuck less how many metals the U.S. wins, or watching all the "nationalistic" flag waving, commercialism and political shit that gets shoved in your face.

    Does anyone feel the way I do?

    I dont care either, I think it was funny how Borats adopted country Kasikstan had more Golds than Australia.
    The media out here are whores that place so much pressure on the athletes and everyone buys into it.
    Humans are humans all our problems stem from fools caring about where their parents fucked and which land they were born into.
    Crock of shit.

    I think it's been fantastic. I've loved the olympics since I was a kid but never realised how great being the actual host was (I live in London).

    Never seen so many coppers on the streets either.

    If I knew what was good to watch I might check more of it out, i'm just not going to sit mindlessly for hours watching events that I couldn't give a fuck less about.
    I do know that Britain did a fantastic job of hosting the Olympics, good on them, hopefully it will be a commercial success and doesn't bankrupt the country.

    Good to see our GB team doing well.

    I have enjoyed the cycling and athletics and the swimming. I haven't seen any boxing! jut keep missing it but from what I keep hearing it's been shit so not really bothered.

    Not particularly bothered about the Olympics but I do enjoy seeing the competitiveness between the athletes and you can see the nerves and the tension. That excites me. Good to see GB do well but I am just happy to see some hard fought events.

    Horse events = boring
    archery = glorified darts
    most team sports = no buzz for me and GB footballers? fuck off!

    I've quite enjoyed it though I agree with Morrissey that the media is like that circa Nazi Germany 1939.

    Morrissey is a twat. The Smiths were great but mozza is a very facile, non entity whose naive and stupid political sensibility seems to be about as informed as a retarded 5 year old member of the national front. An expat like yourself his views on Englishness and the rest of Britain are condescending and fuelled by intolerance and bigotry. Ring any bells?



    Also the Independent sucks

    Olympics has been great, especiially in August when there is sweet FA to do. I think it has stopped the riots this year.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Morrissey is a stupid cunt, right from the opening ceremony you could see multi-culturism was clearly the agenda... and he some how gets nazism from that?! I don't recall the eugenics of Hitler being about multi-culturism, I'm not a historian like Morrissey though? A bit of Jingoism doesn't equal a geonocidal dictatorship...

    Fact is, he's old and few care what he has to say, chucking the word Nazi around for mere shock value instead of accuracy and going against the grain are just pathetic attempts at being relevant, but all it does is remove any legitimate point he may have had.
