she looked like she was about to break down and cry before the race even started. But she was barely able to edge out the competition by 4 body lengths.. and took the gold. good job!

I tell you what, that full body running suite of hers is a joke.

I remember a couple of years ago when those full body swimming suites came into vogue a comedy program did a sketch on how much it would improve performance, then showed someone running down a track wearing one:) I never thought life would imitate art & they'd actually bring out a full body suite for running. But I spose Cathy Freeman having a Nike executive for a husband probably helped.

did they count her as winning when that HUGE EFFING JAW passed the line? or did they wait a full second or two till the rest of her head passed.

Usually Dabanshee would be rubbing it in right about now how the U.S. sucks so bad and how Australia is so much better. But he's not, because he's prejudiced against aboriginees :Q

Actually Cybersax, seeing I'm part English, Irish, Scottish, Dutch, Russian (with French, Italian & Jewish on the Russian side), Danish (with German on the Danish side if you go back to the 13th Century) & Javanese, I'd say I'm more coloured than you. Especially considering I have an olive complexion & as that's worked on by the Aussie sun, I'm actually darker than the average Indian (except for the Dravidians/Tamils, etc in the south - they are dark buggers:)).

I've got nothing against Cathy Freeman. I just think her full body Nike running suite is ridiculous.

As no other athletics participants at the games are wearing them, it could be I'm not alone in this.

Anyway she probably only wears it to keep her Nike executive husband happy.

Why are you so obsessed about racism Cybersax, You always seem to go on about it?
