If California Went to the Olympics...

We’d have at least 175 Olympians (based off Team USA hometowns), more than any other state in the US (next is Texas with 44!), and more Olympians than 185 of the Countries in the Olympics. Team USA competed in 27 out of 28 sports, as the U.S. did not qualify for either the men's or women's team handball tournament in Beijing. Team Handball is the dumbest sport, so we're not that broken up about it. Also, Fun Fact, the US Olympic Training Center for BMX biking is in San Diego.

Yes, I may be exaggerating: the list below is based off hometowns, birthplaces, or Universities. I'm including alternates and heat athletes as well, but not coaches. Yes, I'm ignoring that if we only had some but not all in relays or team sports, outcomes would be different. I'm taking only from Team USA, assuming that if they represented another country, they were probably always going to represent them. Finally, I'm assuming that if someone had the least bit of affiliation with California, they'd want to represent the 31st state. And if you think about it, we're still kicking everyone's ass even taking into account that we have the highest population of any state in the US.

WE (USC) sent 40 athletes (read: not coaches or trainers or cousins of athletes) ATHLETES!
And we came in with 20 total medals, 8 golds, 10 silvers, and 2 bronze!
Not bad, for a bunch of spoiled children, no?

Totally!
Yesterday, when we had our back and forth (Logan Tom/Ceci Hopp- Stanford spicy-specimens) I googled both Logan and Ceci (truthfully- Logan’s teh hotzzerest thanz Ceci; Ceci’s gotz nuttin’ kumpares Logan. Logan mi gusta mas muchos. Verdad!) A-n-y-w-a-y-sssss. . .I saw a pic of Kim (yours too), and she’s lookin’ janky as all get out. Homegirl’s gotta serious madass ghetto-bubble workin’! But hot-damn! She’s also gotta a beautymous 14-point RACK (for all you non-deer hunters, that’s a 14-branched set of antlers on a buck. masssive. virtually unheard of, because all it takes is a 3-point rack to actually shoot/fell a buck in most states). 14-POINTER I tell ya!
Like his Impala, methinks RB might do well for a trade-in? Oh, I think ScarJo is truly dazzling! And. . . .she’s got a comparable rack. But. . . . I’ll eat a bug if RB ever closes that deal with her. Hmmmm? Wondering if ScarJo likes argyle-wearin’ , commando-trottin’ duncebuckets like me? Yeah, only in my monkey-beatin’ dreams!
You going to the MichState game bro? (I’ll be pulling for you guys. Big-10/PAC 10 thang, you know? – Actually, truth be known- I wanted Tedford, Richt, or Saban when USC’s HC opened up back when we hired BigBallsPete. Like I’ve written here before- we got lucky we didn’t inherit Pete Carroll circa-NFL days. Real lucky. I dig Coach Tedford. His style of coaching, social demeanor, and sense of humor. It’s actually hard rooting against you guys when it comes to us. My Cal allegiance remains strong, even though I was always on the fence with their CFB teams as a youth- I was actually an Alabama Crimson Tide and San Jose State Spartan fan as a boy. Had an uncle that bought me tons of Tide gear and sent me copious Bear Bryant pics and posters. Bear was like a god to me, and his teams were practically mythological. Wasn’t until I was 11 that I fully realized that the Tide “still played college football”. They were that legendary and that far removed from my reality. Short of the long of it: Beat the Spartans! Go Bears!

No, it's just a slight against UCLA
But that’s okay, our athletes will always be there in force. Back home, we’re here too. Standing in YOUR way. Don’t forget that. And don’t forget that one of those relatives was attacked and killed. We are going to have to work on your taste in jokes Bixie.

I see what he's talking about (my cousins of athletes remark), and. . .
. . .trust me 102- I categorically wasn’t inferring anything towards your beloved Bruins. If I had, I would sincerely apologize. But I’m not. No, not at all.
What happened in Beijing was a catastrophic bummer. I would never, ever make any remark whatsoever regarding loss of life. I was raised far better than that.
In closing, I’ll clarify my remark. I was only referring the insanity of claimed persons included in tallying up athletes and medals for (fill in the blank) schools that seem ubiquitous post-Olympics. That’s it and that’s all. Besides, I’m not that smart nor harsh to have written such an alleged jibe towards your beloved Bruins. I hope this satisfies your aggression and tempers your anger.
Peace be with you, 102. (now. . . . how ’bout some college f_cking football!)

If you count overall hardware for team sports/relays/etc. (i.e. basketball team wins 12 medals as opposed to the one event medal awarded), then the US ends up with 124 gold medals, China 74, and California 50. Not too bad.
by BearsNecessity on Aug 26, 2008 3:24 AM PDT reply actions 0 recs
So I was watching the news, and they were talking about how the big controversy in China is about whether it’s better to have more golds but not be #1 in overall medals, or better to be #1 in overall medals even if you don’t have the most golds?
I think it’s better to have the most overall medals because that shows you have at least one of the top three athletes in that sport and the more sports the better. Whereas a country can have the most gold medals overall but fewer overall medals which shows they excel in a few select sports but aren’t as rounded as countries with higher overall medal counts.

Well, technically, our athletes took home more golds than China did. We didn’t win as many individual events, but we ran all over the team events and everyone contributed; thus their recognition should be amplified. America’s about team.
So we win by your system and by mine. We rule.

That sucks. Were there any other schools close or better than us? I noted in the DBD yesterday that if Cal had been a country we would have been 16th overall right by Canada.

Surely thou jest… It’s polo but without the horses and water polo but without the water and pong but without the cool sound effects… I can’t stand handball.
Granted, it’s not a judged sport…. it’s a grueling physical sport that favors the team with the biggest most physical blockers around the perimeter…. that I can appreciate (like basketball).
I still believe it should be an enduring olympic sport however… whereas Equestrian, Rythmic Gymnastics, Sync Swimming/diving and Diving should never have been olympic sports.

Handball?
The sport of felons! (not that you or I know this firsthand. but maybe, just maybe- the person over in the next cube knows firsthand?)
Can you just see Chuey (East SJ thug), Attila (Fremont neo-Nazi), or T-roy (San Rafael Crip) being glued to their State Correctional Facility-issued HD television during a match? Oh, the conversation, fights, and overall “tom-foolery” to be had in that environment? Quite disturbing.
At any rate. . . . carry on.

Milorad Cavic
I’d just like to point out that Milorad Cavic (famous for losing to Phelps by .01 seconds) was actually born in Anaheim, California. He went to my high school (where he was known as Mike), and also swam for Cal.
If we’re counting competitors from California who competed for another nation besides the US, he’s 1 more athlete to throw into the mix.
by BleedinBlue on Aug 26, 2008 9:15 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs
yeah, i did remember him being a Cal athlete, though i think the rationale for excluding him would be that if he didn’t swim for the United States in the Olympics, it seems unlikely he would swim for an independent California.
