an olympic wtf thread.

so that track lady, uceny.

ummmm, why didn't she get up and finish?

because laying there and crying is sort of not gonna cut it.

[speckledfrog]

I was just about the post the same thing. I get that she is crushed but I think it's unsportsmanlike to throw a tantrum on the field.

She basically did the same thing in the clip they showed before the race. She tripped on another runner, who got up and hauled ass back into the crowd while wallowed for a bit.

Pure frustration is my guess. I feel sorry for her. I can't imagine what that must have felt like. Apparently the same thing happened to her a year ago at the World Championships.

No one likes quitters!

Yes

I mean that is really bad luck. How frustrating.

[peachykate]

Agreed. I was just yelling at the screen that she should have finished.

[saraandmichael]

I feel bad for her too, but damn. Quit fucking crying on the track and get your ass up and run! Champions aren't cut from a criers cloth.

I have another olympic WTF. Did anyone catch the BMX racing? Ummmm WTMF? That is a clusterfuck like you could never imagine. Basically, if you aren't the first one out of the gate, you might as well forget it. You are going down! LOL

Also, WTF is up with Oscar Pistorius? I have never seen a person with such perfect teeth/lips. I would like to kiss him. He is incredibly handsome.

[saraandmichael]

I know! Pistorius is very handsome. And he just seems like a genuinely good person.
