    Regrets, He Had A Few

    Regrets, He Had A Few

    Another good reason why you should never throw your Karate Kid videos out or stop taking your medication. Cuban tae kwon do dude placed his big fat foot into the face of referee Chakir Chelbat after disqualifying him for taking too long in injury timeout. Do rage!
    Picture this Angel (isn’t that ironic!) Valodia Matos, going for bronze in tae kwon do, cracks his little toe on the mat and calls a 1 minute timeout. Time is ticking on so referee, Chakir Chelbat, looks at Angel’s shattered tootsie and gives him a 10 second warning to hurry the hell up (we have an Olympics to run for goodness sakes). When the medical entourage continue to ignore the warning, the ref disqualifies him. Well, we all know what happens next, kapow, ref gets a real close up of Angel’s foot and the bad one too (Fidel would be so proud). Question is, was that good enough to get bronze? Hmm well, it did get him a life ban at least. It is fast becoming one of Beijing’s magic Olympic moments, along with the peeved tantrum chucking Swede bronze medalist. Anyway I have been notified Angel is no longer eligible for the Friggin Loon Award, in fact he ain’t eligible for any award (ever).

    Yang Peiyi Deemed Too Ugly

    Yang Peiyi Deemed Too Ugly

    Oh dear, not since Milli Vanilli has there been such a scandal. Poor little Chinese girl singer,Yang Peiyi, was deemed too ugly to appear at the Beijing Olympics opening ceremony so she was replaced by a miming cutie, despite her magnificent voice. It seemed like a simple case of “voice of an angel, face of the devil” . When I heard the story on the radio I thought she must be really, really ugly or as I say genetically challenged for Chinese authorities to do that. I could virtually see producers of Extreme Makeover rubbing their hands in delight over this one. But the killer was the PR spin, that is China, stated it was done in the nations best interest. Gee, how much therapy will she be going through in the coming years. It is bad enough thinking your ugly but to have a billion people agree hmmm. All I can say is thank god for the one child policy in China (too many issues not enough therapists). Imagine my surprise when I finally caught a glimpse of the “too ugly for TV” kid. Obviously the officials ain’t seen my school photos nor a glimpse of half the athletes at the Olympic village!
    While we’re are on the Friggin Olympics, did anyone spot the fireworks being a fake? Hell, I was still wondering how they got the Olympic torch to the top of Everest when they slipped that one in.

    Whoops, it was suppose to be funny!

    Oh and my favorite Olympic moment, thanks to the Spanish basketball team. This photo appeared as a full page ad in a Spanish newspaper. What’s the color red? Someone should have told them that the Chinese don’t have a sense of humor. This is up there with the athletes who posed as disabled basketball players and won a medal a few years back.
