You don’t win friends with salad.

Sweet… now I have that song stuck in my head. Thanks. It beats Mr. Plow though.

I think the Olympics are a gigantic waste of money for the host city.

depends on whether the host city can actually use the facilities built effectively once the games end. it doesn’t help that the facilities are getting more expensive.

but not many cities are adding a new pro sports team or in need of a new home for a pro sports team that can capitalize on the vacant arenas.

Of course that should be 825m, because you are subtracting 3% to get 800, not adding 3% to 800. Damn.

Yeah you dumb, dumb as hell.

. You’re clearly off your game.

I made it two comments. And now I’m not even sure I tried the Festbier or if that was the one they were out of at Victory.

Hurt my back and took a muscle relaxer before bed last night… fucking groggy as shit this morning.

/makes excuses, not friends

Why don’t you sit out a few plays, champ. You’re clearly off your game.

Am I to assume that there is also a brewery 824m from you, then?

Brewery just opened 800m (2624ft in insulin shot taking cunttard math) walk from my apartment, life just got a solid 3% better.

Absolutely not. I love the parkway – it’s a national treasure.

Talking ill of the whole “political games played at the expense of people to serve favors to those that have power.”

I was just at Victory and wasn’t a big fan of the Festbier.

It’s a shame, because Boleyn Ground is fucking legendary, and the Olmypic Stadium has a track which whoever takes over is obligated to keep and tracks make watching soccer a horrible experience.

London was discussing their options for their brand new Olympic Stadium as: 1)Sell it/rent it to either West Ham United or Tottenham Hotspur (though it’s not in North London) or 2)Demolish it. Imagine that. Brand new stadium that took millions to build and years to finish just gone because they have no reason for it and no way to pay the upkeep costs.

They played basketball in 2 different venues. They are tearing one down and transporting all the pieces to glasgow for the commonwealth game. At least the main Olympic stadium will not turn into a white elephant if they give it to a soccer team. But I don’t understand what they are going to do with that aquatic center. British people don’t wash. That place will remain empty for eternity.

people were getting shot in Buckhead on regular basis.

If you get shot in Buckhead now it’s because you were trying to steal a guy’s limo instead of driving your Porsche home. That’s some upscale shit there.

The problem with The Olympics is that organizers won’t give you the games unless you promise to build gaudy stadiums like Beijing did. I think it’s about time that the western world stop bidding for these games. Let countries with low self-esteem feel good about themselves just because they were able to put together a 2 week sporting event at an astronomical cost.

BTW, the World Cup isn’t that much better at it.

Given the way the city of Atlanta is run I’m amazed they pulled off an Olympics with only that one bombing occuring. They had a dipshit mayor at the time who layer served time in prison too.

Bill Campbell. I actually miss the glory days of Atlanta. Back in mid to late 90′s, Lefty Lopez was burning down houses, Ray Murda was murdering people, the infamous Gold Club trial which featured Patrick Ewing chatting with strippers while getting a blow job was going on, people were getting shot in Buckhead on regular basis. Those were the days.

Generally speaking the Olympics is used to seize public land to sell and use privately.

Kind of like what W. and the Rangers did in Arlington.

In the five years I lived there, Stonecrest went from being some lovely woods south of the mall to a massive and endless subdivision. Amazing how fast it grew. Same for the sprawl along Providence south of Matthews-Pineville Road.

My mom now lives on Providence near Stonecrest, in a neighborhood that has been there forever, houses all at least thirty years old. Modest places. Across the street on Colony it’s all mansions. Great for everyone else’s property value though.

Fred Durst, Gastonia native. Only thing anyone needs to know about that place

Gastonians — they do it all for the nookie?
