Just once I want to see a World Cup or Olympics turn into a total disaster. We always get these predictions, and it has never happened (ignoring terrorist events).

I don't know.  Even not considering the bombing the 1996 Olympics seemed like a flop.

South Africa was pretty shit too.

Were the vuvuzelas really that bad? 

The answer is yes, the question was rhetorical.

Montreal?

It did start a 3 olympic cycle of boycotting and seems to be the first Olympic where the stadiums end up empty & decrepit after the games.

Rio 2016 is going to be so bad.

Fuck you. There were awesome. Mohammed Ali lighting the torch, Michael Johnson in gold shoes...best ever.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

And the 94 World Cup featured Diana Ross missing a penalty :)

They seemed successful at the time, but a mere 10 years later the 2004 Athens games are seen as a gigantic boondoggle for the Greek people.

La France a gagné 8-0 contre la Jamaïque ! Magnifique ! Vive Deschamps, vive la France ! :frog:

L'équipe de France est-elle la championne du monde des matches amicaux ?

J'ai aucune idee.  Mai a mon avis la question plus pressante est si Sylie est a la piscine ou au biblioteque.

Anyone want to go in on flag bikinis? I'm thinking to sell them at each venue.
