Walking? That's A Sport?

Yeah, it's been a "Sport" for a while now, but seriously. C'mon. This is bullshit. Race walking? Might as well be the shot put, but underhand, with a ping pong ball.

I'm watching right now, and what makes it, "walking" is that you have to swish the hell out of your hips and keep your toes up. Oh, don't forget the massive thrusting of the elbows. (and the rules state that one foot has to be touching the ground at all times-but that's subjective, at best.)

Here's my problem. RUN! Stop holding back! Jeez.

Back when I was in college, we used to play 'fat boy basketball' behind the house. You either had to have a beer or a cigarette, or both, in your hand while dribbling and shooting. We handicapped ourselves. We weren't athletes, we were posers.

These idiots are posers. They handicap themselves, and run a marathon for people who can't compete with people who ACTUALLY run marathons.

Before you slam me: Watch 2 minutes of this bullshit and tell me it's a sport. Race walking? Why not call it "I suck at jogging" or " malls r cool"? What a joke.

To prove my point, next week I'm only blogging with consonants because I can't compete with blogger Robin Sneed. So after i create a new form of blogging, Sh's gn dwn.

Just kidding. That last paragraph is just srcsm.

I asked Vanna, personally, for that o. She's part of my blogging retinue this year. I had to get some new people because the stakes have really gone up on this blogging event.

Don't hold your breath. If baseball is still considered an Olympic sport, speed walking is not going anywhere!
