Danke should do the right thing and take me to the 2020 Olympics, this gives him time to save .
Tokyo Olympics should be much safer, so I could be your guide. You may want to get one of those translation apps, the natives might mistake you as one of the locals.Originally Posted by oyarde

RIO DE JANEIRO - Michael Phelps could break federal law at the Opening Ceremony in Rio on Friday.
The infraction could happen during the Parade of Nations. When the athletes of visiting countries pass the flag of the host country, it is customary for the flag bearer to dip their country's flag as a sign of respect.
It's customary for every country except the United States. The United States Flag Code, federal law, says the American flag "should not be dipped to any person or thing."
Michael Phelps was selected to be the Team USA flag bearer earlier this week. He will likely be instructed to uphold this tradition, as flag bearers before him have been told.
We'll see what he decides to do Friday night during the Opening Ceremony. The Ceremony starts at 7:30 p.m. on 11Alive.
The no-dipping tradition started in 1908 in London, according to Mental Floss, when an Irish-American flag bearer did not want to dip the American flag to the Union Jack. It was reinforced in 1936 when U.S. flag bearer did not dip the flag as an act of protest against Adolf Hitler.
U.S. flag bearer Todd Lodwick did not dip the flag to Putin and the Russian flag in Sochi in 2014.
While the flag code prohibits dipping the flag, it does not carry a penalty for doing so.
Phelps, the most decorated Olympian of all time with 22 medals, is the second swimmer to serve as flag bearer.
They are probably all ready by now.

I am still up watching the Opening Ceremonies. I don't know why. NBC has the dumbest commentators ever. I am losing brain cells watching this. They can't even pronounce the names of the countries correctly. What a disgrace.

There are always a few wonderful surprises, but I don't look for them to come in women's gymnastics. The US team is awash in depth.

The olympics are good for teaching geography to kids (and adults). This sports competition on your tv can do more than 12 years of govt schooling.
Google has up today , a pineapple with a tennis racket .That is for the olympics ?
Looks like Ralph Lauren provided the outfits for team USA!.
When are the doo-doo water events?
Probably , usually look like a gay russian military dress uniform .Looks like Ralph Lauren provided the outfits for team USA!.

Men's gymnastics tonight. Brazil is fairly new to the scene. They translate to hot guys with muscles flying high.

Kayaker allegedly hit a submerged couch.
Genuine, willful, aggressive ignorance is the one sure way to tick me off. I wish I could say you were trolling. I know better, and it's just sad.
I wouldn't swim in an open water event for a kabillion dollars.

I don't know, those women that do those water tricks, dancing half submerged or whatever they call it, are pretty amazing. Are they cheaper by the dozen? I'd like to sponsor them

Seems increasingly like a vehicle for corporate & globalist propaganda.
With the continual addition of too many sports that seem to dilute it's once great tradition (I see skateboarding will be on the program for 2020: http://edition.cnn.com/2016/08/04/sp...ball-climbing/)

He looks a bit top heavy, but I guess that gives him an advantage in some of the other events.

I'd imagine the rings require a lot of upper body strength.
Rio is a trainwreck waiting on an opportune disaster.
Instead of watching the Olympics I've decided to dust off my bicycle and ride 50 miles today. Flat country but I have a 5bft wind simulating some uphill irritation/struggle.
