... yeah, s'right, you guessed: At beach volleyball.

If only all disputes could be settled this way; trial by buttock.

Although it's sad to see the Olympics so desperate to appear "up with the times" and "down with the kids". What next? Frisbee? Crazy Golf?

Why not? The purpose of the Olympics is sport and competition. Why not go with the popular sports whatever they may be?

I agree with ya, however did you catch the comments of the 2 Russian volleyball players? "They aren't really Georgian, they probably don't even know the name of the president".

Don't forget that they added BMX as an Olympic event... I would guess skateboarding would be next in line.

I'll admit, I'm finding it hard to argue convincingly that lithe females should no longer prance on the beach.
