No wonder these nikkas out here struggling with bums

because they're cheering for beach volleyball the evening after they won?

you sound like those sports talk callers who think they should be trapped in a video room between games

I am curious as to what they do the day and a half in between games? you know they got goat security , and it seems like they roll in packs of like 3-4 team members...they be out sight seeing and shyt?

Why they wearing sunglasses at night for volleyball, or is to keep the sand out?

The have special lenses in them that supposedly makes it easier to see the volleyball and tune other colors out

I wonder what that convo was like when April Ross ditched her old partner for Walsh-Jennings.

 

[TELL ME YA CHEESIN FAM?]

Booty nonexistent breh

Wtf kind of sport is this? I thought handball was the sport that old dudes play at the gym when they can't play basketball and baseball any more. But they usually banged it off the wall.

It is like 25% basketball; 25% soccer: 25% water polo (without water) and 25% bullshyt.

It might be, but 400 is right there with it
If you've ever been to a track meet in real life, you'll feel how big the 400 is

Bolt's draw himself is just bigger. He has a race style that isn't common and he is very good on camera. His time today wasn't amazing tho, and 43.03 will be talked about for a long time the way Bolt's 100M/200M records are

This 9.8 wasn't the special number today, it was 3, his number of consecutive golds

No it isn't

So you mean to tell me that an athlete gets slower as he gets older?

 

[Lil Bape the PostGod]

whats that pink stuff in shortys water bottle?

 

[Guess Who]

If you don't care about the "400" then shut the fukk up because the only person trying to downplay Micheal Johnson's sheer dominance in his specialty (400m) is you by bringing up the fastest man the world title held by a flash in the pan sprinter who isn't even considered historically (accomplishment wise) as one of the top sprinters in his principle event (100m).

A former world record holder and olympic gold medalist isn't considered historically in terms of accomplishments?

Y'all will say anything. Fact of the matter is that fastest person in the world is judged by 100m--Bob Costas said as much himself tonight on NBC.

 

[MikelArteta]

Both in Canada, parents are janaican thiugh

[El Bombi]

Cool But shytting on AA is a way to feel proud.

Massa is so proud of you as well.

Costas is saying that cuz they don't have a 200m champion to fall back on lol...

these Canucks in here trying to disgrace Michael Johnson

I don't think people want to do that.

It was just dumb to give him that title of the fastest man
