They don't have Powerlifting in the Olympics, just Weightlifting.
Squat, Deadlift, Bench Press = Powerlifting =/= Olympic Sport
Snatch, Clean and Jerk = Weightlifting = Olympic Sport
I think they have Powerlifting in the Paralympics though.

Whats the difference between football and soccer? They both run up and down a field chasing a ball. The only difference is that NFL players are giant whiny overpaid bitches.
The difference is that fags play 'futbol', or soccer. "Ooh, he touched my leg, I'm going to fall down like a cocksucking queen and cry".
I played football, wrestled, and played racquetball all through HS/college and have yet to call a foul, yellow card, or mulligan on anyone, regardless of injury.
Fags play soccer, nuff said.

tourism was hurt badly because all the Chinese people want to stay home and watch the game

many family lost their home to built the stadium
not just normal BJ..it is ice and fire BJ (blow u with ice and then warm tea in her mouse)..and it is mad cheap too
last night's opening ceremony was really dope. right now though, i'm getting sick of men's volleyball, who the fuck wants to watch that?
The opening ceremony was friggin amazing. That had to be the biggest LCD on the entire planet.
And the squares going up and down in the middle that turned out to be hundreds of real people?! WTF only China would ever do that.

He is - THE CACTUS!
Nickycakes: Agreed.
For a country that has so much money that it actively has to waste it to ensure it's currency is kept at a low value compared to those of developed nations (that's what most of the spending on the Olympics is about. Wasting money to keep the Yuan low), it's pretty messed up that they can't even get clean water to people.
Hell, there are people drinking at the downstream end of the Yangtze, and that's now more polluted than the Nile!
Jizzlober: You know you want to -skittle- that shit
bbwolfe: Try some Rugby. That's the football of manliness.

Hell, there are people drinking at the downstream end of the Yangtze, and that's now more polluted than the Nile!
