Some of these Olympic sports I just don’t understand. Fer instance, they got this one where you run like the wind, then jump into a giant sand box. What’s up with that? And then there’s this other one where you jump over a bar hung between two poles. That’s a sport? At least they tried when they raised the bar, and gave the guy a long stick to use to jump over the bar with - that I understand… sorta. Maybe they could stick some broken glass on top of the bar to raise the level of difficulty. I’d pay to watch that.
Or how 'bout sticking a 16 pound steel ball under your chin, dance around a circle and then chuck the ball as far as you can. Yawn. How about putting a few land mines out there just to spice things up a bit? Then there is this one where you run like heck and then chuck a spear. There’s not even any game afoot! No deer, no antelope, no nuttin!
Or that one where they take a guy, put him in a small plastic boat and send him down a small, man-made river. Heck, make it difficult. Use the Chattahoochee River. If Ned Beattie can’t make it down, a Frenchman in a pair of bicycle pants ain’t got a chance!
