Swifter, Higher, Stronger, Irreleventer???


In a couple of weeks, as we get the chance to do every fourth summer, we will fall in love with some athlete who dedicates their life to being the best, at a marginal, widely unpopular sport, that will lead to bankruptcy or a semi-successful career in Europe or Asia.

You guessed it, the Olympics are coming, live and direct from the heart of modern day Communism. Yes, those cuddly human right violators extraordinare's......the People's Republic of China!

Yahoo! Sports, in an effort to give a face to the US Olympic team (and drive traffic back to their Olympic site so they can actually make money - sorry stockholder), has asked Olympians to pick their perfect athlete. There is nothing of note here, the same names pop up as always. Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, Martina Navratilova, Muhammad Ali, and blah, blah, blah.

The bigger question is, will John Tesh be doing the play by play for gymnastics again? How can you not be a fan of this jack of all trades? From Entertainment Tonight anchor, to his new age/Christian music compositions, this impregnator of Connie Sellecca and devoted Trekkie, has taken his Aryan all-American good looks to new heights. I for one can only salute the work of John Tesh.

John Tesh, god speed my friend......god speed.

i find it funny how people will refuse to buy clothes that have a tag that says "made in china". However, it's completely acceptable to the support on the front of the shirt: http://www.ralphlauren.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3161821&cp=1760781.3168127&view=all&ab=viewall&SMR=1&parentPage=family
