My Olympic Opinions

As I was writing this post, I didn't realize how many opinions I have about the Olympics but someone needs (desperately needs) to put me in charge of the American Olympics Team.

First of all, I am so tired of hearing how great Opening Ceremonies was.  Really?  What was so great?  Please name one thing that was slightly entertaining?  BORING!!!!  Yawn!!

Even the Queen thought it was dull.  I mean, can she not even remotely crack a smile?  The announcers kept saying she has a keen sense of humor.  Really?  I don't believe them.  AND the day after Opening Ceremonies she left London for Balmoral Castle (in Scotland).  What is that???  She can't stick around and support her country??  The games are only bringing her country billions of dollars in revenues.  She could be a little grateful???  The whole thing is weird!!!!

Then the Americans at Opening Ceremonies.  Besides the whole "Made in China" scandal, what was Ralph Lauren thinking??  The athletes are wearing BERETS which people wear in FRANCE.  And I'm sorry did I miss that this is the winter Olympics?  They look ready to sit in front of a fireplace and read a book.  This is the OLYMPICS!!!  Someone needs to tell RL that this is a sporting event and should design clothes accordingly.  Geez!!!

Next, the women's gymnastics team....Hello?  Someone please explain why they are wearing PURPLE????  While they are beautiful leotards are country's colors are RED, WHITE AND BLUE.  Not Barney the Dinosaur purple!!!!!  AND this is 2012, who is making these girls wear scrunchies??????  NO ONE on the planet wears scrunchies anymore!!!!

AND just so you don't think that I am ALL negative today, these leotards are beautiful and I approve. 

BUT who designed these RIDICULOUS jackets that they wore on the podium??????  I will reiterate for the idiots who designed these jackets - USA = red, white and blue.  These are hideous.  My Dad said they looked liked Chinese workers in a rice field.  All they were missing is the little hats.  He couldn't have said it better!!!!

I wasn't even gonna go there.  BUT I seem to be on a rant!! 

Can we even call this gymnastics????

There is no crying in gymnastics!!!!  So embarrassing to our country!!!  (I wish they were the ones wearing gray and maybe mistaken for some other country.)

Here is a piece of awesomeness.  Destinee (two ees) Hooker.  Doesn't that name rock as the best porn star name ever?  She is from San Antonio and the University of Texas and I have no doubt this power house will bring home the gold.  She is soooooooooooooooooooo awesome!!!!

Let's talk water polo.  I don't know what this sport is but while their outfits look harmless on top, have you seen the bottoms of their bathing suits?  They are so revealing I would not put it on my blog.  Again, who is in charge of making these outfits?  What idiot suggested let's put our water polo team in thongs?  AND what team of designers said great idea, let's do it??

As for the main talk of 2012 London, I don't have a lot to say. 

Both great swimmers.

One is hot, one is not.

One wears grillz, the other does not.

I am not sure which is worse.

Finally, let me leave you with this CUTE video.  Jillian and Rocco have watched it at least 500 times. 

Jillian even said that this song may now be her favorite.  This would replace Katy Perry's Firework after two long years. 

Warning:  this song will be in your head the rest of the day!!!
