Is it wrong that I was really happy that the American Women's Beach Volleyball Team almost got their asses handed to them by the team from Belgium?
Who knew women's beach volleyball could be exciting enough to keep you on the edge of your seat?
For some reason, most of the Olympic action that I've gotten to watch has been beach volleyball. I think because of the time difference most of the exciting stuff comes on after I go to bed. But the volley ball match against Belgium was really intense; it went to five match points.
I was rooting for the Belgians; Jeff called me a traitor.
The thing about women's beach volleyball that annoys me is the uniforms. Why do they wear bikinis? Why do the women players wear bikinis when the men players wear shorts and t-shirts? Having said that, if I had a body like Kerri Walsh, I would never wear clothes, just bikinis.
This picture is truly disturbing:
I'm sure there is a context here that I just don't know about.
Jeff and I are much more interested in these Olympic games than Athens. The Opening Ceremony was amazing and we're looking forward to the Closing Ceremony.
We're saving our pennies now for the next Summer Games. Watch out London 2012 -- the Welshies are coming!
I'm not to crazy about the London 2012 logo. I much prefer this old school poster from 1948:
