Ok, so the Huelympics are coming up, and it got me thinking, why are there so many Swimming and Running events? Do we really need a 100m, 200m, 400m, 800m, etc all the way up to 5000m? Same with the swimming? Like, who cares about the 200m backstroke?
For both running and swimming, there should be a short-, mid-, and long-distance event, a mid-range, technical event, and a marathon event.
So this means:
Running: 100m, 400m, 5000m running, 400m hurdles, and marathon
Swimming: 50m, 200m, 1500m freestyle, 200m individual medley, and 10k open water.
Leave the other events for the world championships of the respective sport.

The guy who wins the 400m generally wins the 200m and 800m too, so they basically get 3 medals for the price of 1.
Phelps got the same medal 8 times and we're supposed to think he's a god.
>>64027425
Exactly. The events should be different enough so that it would be extremely difficult for one guy to get two gold medals.
>>64027367
I agree with this + relays.
>tfw UNIRONICALLY WE ARE BACK IN THE TITLE RACE
Feels good lads.
I reckon we will beat Newcastle 0-2 today. All the papers have been saying nice things about us recently, and how Klopp can take advantage of every other team shitting the bed and win us the league.
I reckon we can do it.
>inb4 our year la pisstaking
Look at how inconsistent everyone is, a win today and we are right amongst it all. Face it, you're going to have to put up with us being contenders like 2013/14 again, can't wait for the tears.
'no'

whats it like to have that liverpool feel lads?
i believe in schteve
How did he end up in Stoke of all places?
hardly surprising considering he's utter shit
he's a decent player who just wants to play some actual football for a while
stoke was a great choice
If you look at his career backwards, it's the story of a boy from Stoke who signed for Inter then won the CL with Bayern
>MESSI
edition
Should Suarez get a ban for this?
Why wasn't Suarez called offside on his goal?
How much are Uefalona bribing the league refs?
Will Ronaldo score a legit goal this season, which is not a tap in or penalty?
Will Gary Neville be able to take Valencia into the Champions League again this year?
Is Atletico Madrid a title contestant with their recent form?
Literally all good strikers do this stuff. It's all about mind games and shit.
Also it was a very tight decision and it was basically a guessing game

Bullshit m8

I wish m8, but all the britbongs are too insecure
Ask a legitimate born and bred lifelong Leicester supporter anything.

What is your favourite flavour of walkers crisps?
How does it feel living in the least whitest town in the whole of England?
what went wright?
He still needs more goals desu
A player that Arsenal paid 45 million pounds for turned out to be good after having some time to adjust to a new league. Shocking.
Daily reminder that /sp/ is literally wrong about everything and ABO's will grasp at anything still i.e. above
ITT punchable faces
Not agreeing with you there, m8.
look in le mirror
As far as footy goes anyway

Predictions?
>>64026162
Costa chatting shit. 3-1 Foxes
4-0
Chelsea try to murder Vardy, get a red card from a bad tackle in the first half. Costa chats shit, gets a red, and has to walk on.
GOATcester win 6-0
CAP
THIS
SHIT
So this was a mistake, wasn't it?
Seeing as how now his body is fucking busted up and he needs to take nights off like he's fucking 40 year old Tim Duncan, yeah, he used his prime years in Miami and now he's going to end up getting Cleveland no rings because the team can't stay healthy and he has to carry them just to win against mediocre teams.
no way you take wade and littlefoot over irving and love. plus it is an easy path to the finals every year just beat the bulls.
whats the next step in his masterplan?
Murder-suicide
Crashing this club......WITH NO SURVIVORS!!!!!!!!
Abramovich's KGB lads will send him to a stone quarry in the Siberian tundra soon
>tfw your team is gonna win the Premiership this year
What part of Brisbane you from
>>64025594
they'll win it in 2017, but they'll regress in 2016 as people will figure out the style Bennett has coached into them and I don't think they've recruited well enough to address the deficiencies they had in 2015 (namely the forwards and the lack of speed and strike in the outside backs)
they'll slide down the ladder and probably finish around 5th
but like I said 2017 is the year they will really contend
>tfw
just need our outside defense to not be scrubs and we'll get it.
Who should madrid sign to unfuck their shit up, my la familia?
