Gabrielle Douglas - she did it!

Gabrielle Douglas - she did it!

Post by maiforpeace » Sat Aug 04, 2012 3:25 am

How great that she won the first gold in gymnastics for African-American women. Not only that, she did it during the same term that we voted in our first African-American President. Yay America!

So I go to search out a photo and found this:

Does God deserve credit for Gabrielle Douglas’ Olympic Gold Record

Fuck god!!! She and she alone did it (well, with her coach etc.)

Personally, I am getting fed up with seeing supreme athletes, that have put in months of training and pushed their bodies to the limit of their endurance offer up thanks to teh sky fairy when they fukcing win something! If he gets to pick the winner, why not simply pray insterad of doing all that working out shit? And why aren't the losers, who presumably pray just as hard, shaking their fists at the empty sky when they lose?

She was awesome to watch. I mean all the women were awesome to watch, the Romainians and Russians gave the U.S. great competition!

Maybe, but she'll have had an amazing life and experiences and professionals to help her with the pain. I don't know many olympians that say they wouldn't have done it if they knew they'd have to deal with pain later.

A full women's gymnastics team probably weighs less combined than some super-heavy wrestlers/judo competitors. :what:

Women's gymnastics seems to be heavily biased towards balance and extreme acrobatics, whereas the men's is biased towards upper body strength. I wonder what it would be like if they both had to perform on all the same apparatus? :ask:

He also believes in the fundamental goodness of human nature and that all problems can be resolved, if all parties show good will and cooperate.

I love watching gymnastics. It's one of my favorite Olympic events to watch.
I'm wild just like a rock, a stone, a tree
And I'm free, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I flow, just like a brook, a stream, the rain
And I fly, just like a bird up in the sky
And I'll surely die, just like a flower plucked
And dragged away and thrown away
And then one day it turns to clay
It blows away, it finds a ray, it finds its way
And there it lays until the rain and sun
Then I breathe, just like the wind the breeze that blows
And I grow, just like a baby breastfeeding
And it's beautiful, that's life
