More Off-Topic Olympic Women

I passed on that. I will watch almost anything in the Olympics but I skipped that. Now I wish I had watched.

I watched some BMX late last night. At first I thought, WTF, this s an Olympic sport, but it was pretty cool to watch for a little while.

@ gmd: Here in Everett, WA, there were Olympic prelims in rhythmic gymnastics last fall. I went to an afternoon of it with friends who have a daughter that once participated in that sport. It was great watching. I too, caught some of it on NBC's coverage a couple of nights ago.

@ motor: I'm not at all a BMX fan, but I did happen to see some of the BMX events, and was thoroughly amazed at what a beautiful course the Olypics designed for it. It's tough to see all those spills!

GMD, really? Rythmic Gymnastics? That is frightening. I thought the only GUYS who watched that wore bright pink leather pants and lace shirts with puffy sleeves and also drooled over men's gymnastics. ;)

@dallas702: Dude, those girls are flexible, and they don't look as hardbodied as the "regular" gymnasts. And most of them were over 18.

I'll admit, though, calling them "gymnasts" might be stretching the point a bit. Whatever you call them, most of them were hot, hot, hot, especially that cute little Korean chick.

OK, GMD I checked the videos of Olympic Ryhtmic Gymnasts and some of them do look over 12, but I still don't get the twirling a ribbon around like a toddler!

Ribbon? You were watching the ribbon?
