I like watching BMX stuff!

The X Games, I used to LOVE watching.

What kind of BMX events are there going to be? Is it like vert ramps and stuff, or those big jumps where they do little tricks?
Or just boring boring races round and round.

Although I'm guilty of this in my signature. Bugger.

But more to the point, why aren't we the United Kingdom? Why is the team not UK, rather than GB? :/

Because...

Because what? The IOC are retards? The ... Whatever the UK Olympic people are called, are retards?

Interesting that, so far, the Russians are the only group to have received a bigger cheer than us.

Isn't Jackie Chan meant to be having an exhibition fight, against one of the boxers Ricky Hatton fought, a year or two ago?
