1A. I have to keep reminding myself not to go to ESPN, Facebook, Twitter or any news site during the Olympics until after watching prime time coverage.
1B. I also really need to invent an Olympic Sport, so I can make it to the Olympics!
1C. Who knows where I can play handball?
2. The badminton fiasco in the Olympics happens in all sports. (Losing for draft position, playoff seed for favorable matchup, etc.) Why would a country want to have two of their teams play each other before the finals? However, throwing a match its absolutely not fair to the fans and the opposing team.
I think the moral of the story is to get the organizers to fix it before something like this can happen.
One way is to create a rule where countries cannot play each other until it cannot be avoided. Another way is to make the tournament double elimination so that the original elimination draw is not as important.
3. Email should let you easily rename attachments. In the meantime be careful about what you name your files when you are sending them.
4. Seeing so many American female Olympic Athletes be crazy about Justin Bieber, makes me feel very old.
5. Cell phones should have a feature where when you are getting a call you can press 1 button to text common replies like: "Driving, will be there soon", "On another call", "Busy, will hit you up in a bit".
Note: Apparently I need an Android phone as this comes native on them.
5B. Anytime you arrive in a new city, Facebook should have a feature : "Alert relevant friends I'm in town". Which is not just a status post, but actually a text to all of your friends in the area.
6. Could anyone understand Bane?

I'm a proponent of adding chess boxing, though it won't help me get to the olympics.
ReplyDelete2. I had a friend who suggested that if both teams are trying to lose, have them switch rackets, and say the winning rackets win the game.
ReplyDeleteHey are you willing to give up the name "Saucy" on twitter? Anything you want in return?
