Saddest Moment so far. Anonymous
I saw this on NBC:

Liu Xiang was warming up before the 110 hurtles.

He does a warmup run. He jumps over the first hurtle but has to stop before the second hurtle.

Then he walks over and kicks his right foot repeatedly against a padded wall. Screams in frustration and rests his head on the wall. During this footage, Bob Costas is talking about how Liu must be feeling.

Liu Xiang has shamed his country. You know how that usually ends.

Yuri van Gelder, a dutch gymnastic guy who won several world cups in the last couple of years and has always won medals in the last 4 years of world championships.
Yet he isn't there this games, because gymnastics isn't a game about the best against the best. It's the game were (ex)commies win everything. They refused to give the multiple times european champion and world champion a wild card.

There was a shot where this guy was sitting, watching the gymnastics finale, and wept manly tears.

To make things worse, the guy that got his wildcard, some guy from Yemen, managed to get himself transported to a hospital without doing anything.

I lolled. The bastard knows that most of the country's youth is looking up to him, and proceeds to rake in the money advertising cigarettes.

Way to go.

Messed up his foot in warmups, went to the starter blocks, someone had a false start and he walked away to the tunnel.

It looks like a legitimate injury so he's not really pulling an intentional Bode Miller

Wow, if he faked that, and the media finds out, his ass is grass.

One at most (the underaged gymnasts)

As for all the bitching about high difficulty routines having more leeway for errors, stop fucking whining and adapt. You can put together high difficulty routines too. Or can you?

wait, they only have one gymnastics medal?

Why is that?
China invested a lot of money for its athlets; of course the return is going to be large. The home-advantage is a factor as well, but do you remember Atlanta?
Just because the US are /only/ second that doesn't mean it's undeserved.

i think that's the last we'll see of him. his "agent" is going to announce a few months later that he has shamed his country and has gone into "hiding" to avoid the public.

but of course we all know what really happened. hollow point bullet in the head...

that's why the Chinese were crying they were watching a dead man limping

You know, China has changed a lot since the 1960s.

I'd agree to that

it hurts the most when you are right and everyone else is an idiot so their only recourse is to call you "butthurt"

you have no idea how much that hurts my butt
>> fashion diva !3wJfpCMhKc
>>272823
yeah
they have recently developed the power to force all other governments (and their citizens) to believe/pretend that they have changed

That would be troublesome.
The only thing you should consider is, that there is no thing as an undeserved medal. An exception would be sports with juries, but as long as there is no too large gap between points and reality.....

Good night sweet prince. Whether his injury is real or fake, he's still gonna die. Either the government will do it or himself. I mean a hyped record-breaking athelete runs out in front of his own country?

You were so into that all Chinese semifinal beach volleyball match yesterday. Are you against the people? The athletes? The CCP? If anything, you should only beef with the CCP, since it seems they are the only ones capable of pulling IOC strings at these games.

Whatever, whoever wins the 110m hurdles won't be anything special anyway.

Especially with some of the best hurdlers walking out.
