lindsey vonn = cyclops

lindsey vonn will dominate these olympics, one shin be dammed.

why will she dominate you ask? because she has mutant powers. like cyclops, leader of the x men:

in fact, if you look closely enough, you can see the resemblance:

also, like cyclops, she will lead the usa to glory.

or shoot optic laser blasts out of her eyes.

lebron james needs his own tv show

first of all, thank you nbc for completely botching the usa argentina basketball broadcast. why does everyone (including the usa) hate the us basketball team?

whatever. i still enjoy them. one thing i have really enjoyed in particular is watching lebron james and seeing how hilarious the guy is. espn is currently running some episodes of road to redemption. basically, they follow team usa with cameras as they get ready for the olympics – and lebron is always singing, dancing, goofing around, etc.

you need an example? this actually happened during the game.

Manu Ginobili was shooting free throws, and LeBron was chatting away. Kobe had been talking to the opponents in Spanish, and LeBron said something or other to Kobe and then added “make sure they understand that.” The idea being, that Bryant was to translate some trash talk for James. Hilarious.

heres the audio clip (around the 19-20 second mark):

seriously, get this guy his own tv show. id watch it for sure.

awesome olympics video

in the name of olympic spirit, this video has appeared in my inbox (both work and personal) multiple times over the last few days. and each time i get it i have to watch it again. twice. it is that awesome.

here it is for all of you to enjoy. needless to say, these guys probably arent competing in the beijing right now.

man those bike guys are crazy. and the pole vault looks painful.

team usa is very good at dunking

so good in fact, that if the olympics could be won solely on dunks, we would definitely win gold. lebron james would be mvp of the all dunk team. unfortunately, i dont think gold can be won by dunking all the time, so we might need to start playing better.

things we are good at:

• dunking
• layups
• blocking shots
• being fast
• looking mean
• having awesome looking uniforms
• picking up stupid fouls

things we are not good at:

• shooting mid range jumpers
• shooting 3 pointers
• shooting free throws
• ok fine, shooting in general

i understand that the ball is a little bit smaller in international basketball, but does it really make that big of a difference?

heres something else i noticed. there i was, watching the game, when this guy checks in for the greek team:

the first thing that ran through my mind?

holy crap. shaq hates kobe so much that he joined the greek squad to play him! this brings the kobe shaq feud to a whole nother level!

turns out it wasnt usa shaq, but greek shaq. some guy named sofoklis schortsanitis. whatever. ima call him greek shaq.

also, happy birthday to my sister. welcome to your mid 20s.

olympic ninja t shirt revisited

had to repost these designs without the word “olympic” in there. apparently its trademarked. so now i present to you the 2008 summer games ninja t shirts! (i know, it doesnt have quite the same ring to it)

still, last night was a pretty awesome night of olympics action, with more swimming and gymnastics medals. whoo hoo! natalie coughlin from cal and aaron peirsol both won gold, along with aquaman michael phelps.

on a side note, one time, while we were stranded on a boat, my old college roommate aaron asked me if i were stuck on an remote island and could only have three people on the island with me, who would i choose? natalie coughlin made the list, as i could ride on her back while she swam to the mainland. true story.

angry ninja is feeling very olympic today

[update] apparently the united states olympic committee has a problem with the word “olympic” on the t shirt. will repost the design without the word tomorrow. right now, im too busy watching the games.

and how can i not be after watching this? i dont usually get pumped up for swimming, but wow, that was amazing! my eyeballs will be definitely glued to the tv.

so in honor of the next two weeks, i present to you, the olympic ninja t shirts.

ps. after watching the opening ceremonies, id hate to be london right now.

pps. USA! USA! USA!
