gooks are koreans, i believe you mean 'nips'


edit: yes this is a joke and yes i do know the word has a proper history

 

[stazi]

gooks = all asians i think (when used by racists in australia)

and the bball game isnt that even. most teams have managed to keep it close against the US for the first quarter and a bit

 

[stazi]

holy shit. 30 rebounds USA, 14 rebounds australia.

Gooks = Vietnamese
Jap = racial term describing a Japanese.


So use the word Jap if you're venting against their win over Australia, lol

 

[goony]

USA were at something ridiculous like $1.005 (yeah, half a cent) on odds, with australia at $23 i think.

 

[chicky_pie]

"oh my god. you've got to be kidding me right. is this real? this is amazing. huuuuh huuuhhh. i saw lolo go down and i said go for it...and i did...can you believe it?"

lol ive said this twice in this thread already

 

[uhawww]

but if you bet billions of dollars on USA you'd be rich(er)!

 

[Martyno1]

how embarrassing! being behind poms... i guess this should push for a national inquiry or something into more funding.

funding aint gonna do shit when the 3 most popular sports are not played in the olympics (afl, rugby, cricket)

 

[stazi]

we're getting pwned in basketball now by like 33%

 

[A High Way Man]

stop playing afl aso f this moment

 

[Charizard]

were playing horribly.

my under 16 state team i was in would be doing better

 

[stazi]

we're not playing that badly. we're just playing against USA.

 

[Martyno1]

funding aint gonna do shit when the 3 most popular sports are not played in the olympics (afl, rugby, cricket)

then why is it that the countries with both the biggest populations and the greatest economies (=greater funding) do so well at the olympics?
funding is everything.

 

[Charizard]

No we're playing very badly.


Those rubbish passes being intercepted ? stupid 3 point shots ? shit defence ?

= playing bad.

America aren't even doing anything great other then capitalising on our fuck ups

 

[Charizard]

then why is it that the countries with both the biggest populations and the greatest economies (=greater funding) do so well at the olympics?
funding is everything.

Just look as great britian. They tripled their funding to cycling and look how many medals they won this year.


A lot

funding is everything.

funding is a lot of the equation, but not everything.

india has a massive population and an economy increasing at a very fast rate. you could invest billions of dollars into sports if the govt wanted

Also, Ukraine's economy is shite, but they're 10th. Italy's isn't amazing and they're 9th.

Some of the world's richest countries (the oil countries) buy lots of athletes, but still don't get many medals

edit; and what GB did was a marketer's tactic. Where are the biggest gaps we can exploit? Cycling doesn't have that much funding historically (I'm assuming) and they decided to focus most of their sports spend on that area

 

[stazi]

lol at the commentator having a big whinge
