Always said I wanted a swimmer's body, and now...success
I'll see if I can work out an introduction.
You have Shego on speed dial, right? I expect she could arrange this for you.
I don't know, but it's definitely a more balanced match than I was expecting when I turned it on. Though the USA is still the better team, honestly.
Well, that's a bad example. It would be more like, if there were medals for free throw competition, or 1v1 pickup.
The U.S. only got one medal in the team competition.Which is my argument for why while what Michael Phelps has done was great, all this "best olympian ever" talk is wrong.Well, that's a bad example. It would be more like, if there were medals for free throw competition, or 1v1 pickup.
Agreed. That's why I think Clara Hughes is the greatest Olympian.
I personally think Hephaestos is the greatest Olympian.
Hardly. A bit, sure, but the average gymnast has gone down from 1m61 to 1m49 in that time, and got 5 kilos lighter. Despite raising the minimum age, the average age has also come down. Smaller -> shorter radius to turn - weight closer to center of gravity - faster rotations possible - more loop-de-loops.
