fuckin ALI

 

[NihonTiger90]

Damn, I didn't know Ali was in such bad shape.

He's 70 and has Parkinsons from his days in the ring. Had it back when he lit the flame in Atlanta in '96, too.

 

[bitoriginal]

I'm pretty sure McCartney is going to be underwhelming, the venue just isn't suited to his voice... I'm ready to be proven wrong though.

 

[NYR]

Ugh.

Ali's wife: "Wave Muhammad, Wave."

No response at all.

That was painful to watch....

 

[Zaph]

Damn, I didn't know Ali was in such bad shape.

All things considered, he's actually in pretty good shape.

 

[The Omega Man]

guys in white are the galactic counsel, Ali being the president

 

[Xun]

Ali

Poor guy.

 

[SpacePirate Ridley]

Ahh, I see. That's really weird, especially when French is not spoken in many countries (with large amount of people). Spanish would have made much more sense. Thanks guys. Keeping it French doesn't seem very fair IMO. They should keep it the language from the place the event is taking place at that moment. Oh well

Its worse when you know they kicked out all original english segments of Disneyland paris rides one or two years after the opening (more europeans would at least understand english on the rides, because english is at least more known even on no english speaking countries and Disney wanted to give it a more european feel to the park at the beginning), because the french complained and cried that the only language at the park had to be french so they changed all the ride dialogs and shows to french, that most people on europe dont fucking understand a bit. But then they have to have their way shoehorning their language in another country celebrating the olympics, because, hey, they created modern olympics. Why not greek also, they created the whole concept before a french guy copied it.
But now theyve got back to their senses and you can here french/english in most of the rides and shows, thank god. However, we have lost forever the Vincent Price Haunted mansion english narration in the process.

 

[Amagon]

This ceremony keeps on reminding of The Hunger Games.

 

[Kifimbo]

Not sure Ali should be there..

 

[kharma45]

David still on that fucking boat :lol

 

[dc89]

:O YES!! Here we go!

 

[Korey]

What's up with all these other countries? America should have its own olympics

 

[gutterboy44]

Bring on Becks to light the torch and ignite the latent homosexual flame in all of us! He really is unnecessarily handsome.

[OpinionatedCyborg]

Ugh.

Ali's wife: "Wave Muhammad, Wave."

No response at all.

That was painful to watch....

[Clegg]

I see a horse and an arsehole laughing in the background.

 

[Nolan.]

That would be a disgrace.

Precisely

 

[Hoo-doo]

[Jezbollah]
