I'm Crushed for Mckeyla Maroney

Maroney said it: you don't deserve the gold medal when you fall on your ass.  Plain and simple.  She owned it.  Gotta give her credit for that.  Not her best work.  Not even close to landing it.  She's hands down the best vaulter on the planet and everyone knows it.  Just not today.  She'll be back.

The Big Engine

Usain Bolt is a freak.  Pretty much the most popular dude on the planet right now.  Crazy speed. 

McKayla Maroney's Vault was a Bomb

16.233? GTFO. That was a perfect vault.

Tweezer Reprise

Tweezer Reprise, a legendary arena rock monster by Phish was used in a montage celebrating Michael Phelps 19 Olympic medals.  For fans of the band and Mr. Phelps it was an axciting moment.   "Tweezer Reprise" was trending worldwide on Twitter.  Grace Potter tweeted about it.  Here is a performance from '95...

Man Reacts to Flood Dream by Building Noah's Arc

Get a load of this jackass just freaking out because he had a bad dream.  Everyone knows dreaming about floods and rain means you gotta take a piss and that's it. You don't need Sigmund fuckin Freud to figure that one out.  Interpretation of Dreams 101 playa.  Instead this guy goes and leaves his Wall St. job and get's his Noah on for like a year.  This could all just be a business scheme.  Like selling seats to billionaires and their families.  How many Noah's arcs can this guy waterski behind?

Michael Phelps

When pictures of Michael Phelps ripping a bong surfaced shortly after the Beijing games, many questioned the character of the young man.  Many felt the need to judge him.  I didn't because I didn't care.  He answered those critics Tuesday night by anchoring a dominant US 4x200 freestyle relay to a gold medal.  He is now the greatest Olympian of all-time.

Team USA Blows Tunisia Out of The Water

I won't even post the score for this one.  Tunisia got stomped.  At least they covered....

Happy Birthday, JG!

Today would be Jerry Garcia's 70th birthday.  So I would like to take a moment in this column to wish him a happy one.  Unfortunately, Jerry didn't live quite long enough to be here to celebrate.  August 1, Jerry's birthday, through August 9, the date Jerry died, is affectionately known by deadheads as "Jerry Week."  So today is the official beginning of Jerry week.  I usually try to vacation during this time of the year.  Shit why am I not on vacation?

A lot has been made of Jerry's inglorious final years with the Grateful Dead.  1990's Grateful Dead was not peak stuff.  So just remember the great times you had with Jerry.
