Why? Much better than synchronised diving! Besides we're good at them B)bringoutthegimp posted on Aug 22 2004 at 10:53 AM said:(apart from the horse events, these dont belong in the olympics)
Just because many people agree doesn't make something objective.and even if YOU dont care about a lot of the sports there are millions of others who do (apart from the horse events, these dont belong in the olympics)
I didn't say they weren't good, I said it wasn't interesting. The only event that has absorbed me so far was the badminton, and now thats over.A lot of work goes into it, and until you can do better, quit your critisism.
i downloaded it once... and yes it doesKlown posted on Aug 22 2004 at 04:32 PM said:I'm watching the unaired pilot for the US remake of Red Dwarf.

Most boxers take part in the Olympics before they turn pro, Muhammed Ali (as Cassius Clay of course), Lennox Lewis etc.LHC posted on Aug 22 2004 at 03:18 PM said:My "the best players don't take part" comment was aimed at Basketball, football, boxing and anything else that has a separate popular professional league/system.

There are Cubans who aren't allowed to turn pro though, some of them would undoubtably have been professional world champions if Communism didn't suck so much.
I'd get rid of tennis and where the hell is bowls?
I'm devastated about the marathon...
The boxing makes me think 'why bother'? If the object isnt to find out which country has the best boxer, then what exactly is it? Who can cope best with a pile of silly regulations aimed at 'evening the playing field'? If you win, what exactly have you proved - that you are better than 'amateurs' all around the world, but still not in the same league as the professionals?mattmagoo posted on Aug 23 2004 at 10:36 AM said:have u seen the britids guy, last I saw he was hitting the crap outta the european champ and he is 17
and the portugese footbball team was pretty fucking awesome too
It's to find the best amateur boxer, you want to get rid of all amateur competitions? Then we wouldn't have any pros.LHC posted on Aug 23 2004 at 11:08 AM said:The boxing makes me think 'why bother'?

The portuguese football team that lost to Iraq, is that?
I love cartoons too, shame we don't have Cartoonnetwork here. Sssh..kidrdbz posted on Aug 21 2004 at 02:30 PM said:Whatever's on cartoonnetwork.(I love cartoons )
No, of course I don't want to get rid of amateur competition. I don't want it on my TV though. I was questioning whether the competition shows anything, and I think my question still applies. It shows how you can beat some, but still aren't in the same league as the pros.thebluenewt posted on Aug 23 2004 at 03:53 PM said:It's to find the best amateur boxer, you want to get rid of all amateur competitions?

The Portuguese team were crap, it's great for Iraq though. They were getting beaten for losing not too long ago and now they're in the Olympic semis!
Well, it's not like boxing is on that much.LHC posted on Aug 23 2004 at 10:30 PM said:No, of course I don't want to get rid of amateur competition. I don't want it on my TV though.

surely it'd be cheaper to just buy a box set instead of paying like £5 per magazine for about 100 magazinesMemnoch posted on Aug 24 2004 at 02:56 PM said:I'm currently collecting the Star Trek The Next Generation magazine which comes with a DVD every month.
