Guest WenDylan Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 (edited) The younger less developed girls are more agile due to less body mass and weight distribution. They do have an unfair advantage to girls over 16And as NBC reported, younger girls are more reckless of their health to perform such death defying gymnastic routines. Good ole' NBC style reporting... Jin says no way they are 16 The point is its cheating/ breaking the rules. But having said that I thought the games was for originaly amateurs, that seems to be overlooked or forgotten too. Any amateurs in the redeem team ?Kobe Bryant is as amateur as they come, what are you talking about? Huh?? So is Yao Ming. I've heard several reports that all these guys are under age 16.... http://i36.tinypic.com/2nsotmt.jpg ...and Yao Ming was seen in a compromising position with at least two ot them....!http://2008gamesbeijing.com/images/beijing-olympic-mascots.jpg (I still can't find those Yao Ming photos... but I found this compromising picture.)Dude, do you ever sleep? Yes, between 8am-4pm CST (because I work like now at night for 11 hours.) Edited August 15, 2008 by WenDylan (see edit history) Link to comment
