We can modify our primitive energy. Where are the chinese?


@SK I agree with you here. Some of those sports we have been playing for many years. Consider;

Archery - It may not be the best example but PEV revealed we can shoot arrows with precion of a surgeon. Ama you meant Sorcery?
Synchronised swimming -
Equestrian - Dunno what this is but if you meant vegetarian ain't we the best at eating vegetables. we even have a name for it, Sukuma wiki
Fencing - Ati fencing? Are you serious! Which Kenyan can't fence? Heck we are even known to plant Kei-apple fencing on the ocean. Only that we call it grabbing
Shooting - Shooting?! damn only a handful of Iteere's boys are required and we bring home all the medals. We will even shoot dead the referee just to demonstrate how good we are at it.
Gymnastics - Kenyans are known to dodge live bullets as police battle thugs on our street. Even our MPs - Sonko, Waititu can bring home a gold on this


In the meanwhile i'm waiting for the Olympics to begin this Friday. So far the curtain raising has been entertaining!!!

Japanese media; Japanese long distance runners preferred training in kenya but can't . Reasons security and lack of facilities. TV commentator " Africans can dominate Olympic and many sports due to advantage genetically but lack proper management and good food"


Can they allow our youngstars to go practice gymnastics at Japan/Korea?


Why not. Welcome to train any time if they satisfy the visa requirements

Did anyone see the two Korean, one Chinese and one Indonesian doubles teams for badminton banned for trying to lose against each other so that they meet "weaker" teams in the qualifiers??? It was astonishing! They were booed off the courts and promptly and aptly banned.
Canada had been eliminated after two losses and suddenly they are playing for a medal. Their two losses against the eliminated sides were turned into wins.

The synchronized diving by the Chinese has been amazing. And for once the Chinese ladies gymnastics team was beaten to the team medal by USA who produced an imperious performance! I'm still waiting to see some synchronized swimming, some of these feats in the olympics simply amaze me.



And how come I have not seen the Cuban and Brazilian female volleyball teams??? Hizo hotpants are a better sight than beach volleyball, especially coz they're properly "filled"

Can't wait for track and field events. I was speaking to a former Kenyan athletes coach and he tells me we're assured of gold in the following events bar unforeseen events:
800M men
5,000M women
3,000M Men's steeplechase
Men's marathon
Women's marathon

Everything else will be a bonus. Apparently Vivian faces stiff competition in the 10,000M and Asbel Kiprop and the rest in the 1,500M men's - the 3,000 women's steeplechase has been yielding 2nd position. I just hope we are able to surpass the 6 gold medals haul of the Beijing olympics. Nothing brings out my patriotism more than cheering Kenyan Athletes. Truly proudly Kenyan!!!

Ofcourse there's the ugly side of how Chinese gymnasts have been so dominant in recent years...or do they justify it as "No Pain No Gain???"











Anyway, world dominance can only be achieved through blood and sweat but what about children's rights?
