It is, 100%, but he should be in the Paralympics, not the 30th Olympiad...although, it's obvious he would kick everyone's ass at the Para games.

It's just too much for me.

With that said, track and field week is what gets my heart racing. I'm dumb excited.

12 athletes were just banned from the ParaOlympics. They tested positive for WD40.

Para games have 200 meter runners with single amputations, he has an even bigger advantage over there

on his wiki page it says he took a fall in one event and still came out victorious

they should just make two-legged "blade running" a legit event, there are lamer events already in this thing

(once they generate a pool large enough to a have full events of course & I think there will be after these games)

make it in the official games, not Para

hell, in 30 years there will be robot wrestling anyway

I think Cal and by extension , KSR , is setting fans up to have too high of expectations for this team. Especially considering that UL, IU, FL and a few other teams will be improved.
I like the stinky pinky but only up to the first knuckle, I do not want a GD thumb up there--I've told her multiple times and I always catch her when she tries to pull a fast one---it's my butthole for Chrissakes I'm gonna know--so cut out the BS.

Cal was in Toronto last weekend to make another run at Wiggins, both his parents went to Florida State so they have the "in" but word is he'll wind up in Lexington out of sheer brute force

for 2013-14 UK is looking to be loaded again

and I think next year's team is going to be good, but when Cal says he is going to have a good team, that just shoots UK fan's expectations thru the roof, and every loss is magnified. Those kids are going to be under some serious pressure next year if they get off to a slow start.

Then again, with the schedule Cal has put together, I'm not sure how they can.

"The 2K Sports Classic bracket was revealed on July 26, and features several marque teams. Alabama will be joined in Madison Square Garden by Oregon State, Villanova, and Purdue."

That's great, but who are the marque teams that will be featured?

The USA-Argentina game is fun. Love the cheap shots by the Argentines.

Feck....great last name cause I am sure that was yelled out.

Also, I did the exact same thing that fat kid did one year at our local poll but it was on the high dive. Man, that suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuccccccccccccccked.
