Lawrence Person writes: "According to this AP wire story, they're thinking of adding chess as an Olympic sport. The downside? Mandatory drug testing. 'He's using steroids to move that pawn!'"

No - it would just make those drunk Russians crush the rest of the world...
yea, caffiene to keep awake.
is that where everyone runs around waving their arms manically, underpants on head with two pencils up their nose, shouting awwooooga awoooga?
Even better, what kind of gold medal does this earn:

Some ratings, but barely. And very little coverage due to low ratings. The US television market is very fickle and the media is very biased and limited when it comes to "sports" - be it mental or physical.
for me to get this firstp ost.
I hate Nazis, their stench is the stench of tonnes of manure, and they are evil like Bill Gates on crack. I like to shoot Nazis with guns and beat them with baseball bats. All Nazis, I am going to kill you with guns and bats because you are evil and I hate you. Nazis are Communists and child molestors and racists. Nazis please stop being Communists and child molestors and racists, because everyone hates you because that's what you do. I want you all to die, and be advised that when you die, all Nazis will burn eternally in the fiery inferno of hell for rejecting the teachings of Jesus Christ, just like all the other Communists and child molestors and racists will also burn!! NAZIS GO TO HECK, YOU STINKS!!!
the one i have (borrowed from work while my home 19" Philips CRT gets repaired) only has the floppy drive module installed...the DVD module died about a year ago. it's not all that bad...p233MMX, 64MB RAM, 1024x768 graphics. goddamned slow hard drive though. ah what the hell...it's still a piece of shit.
dwarf tossing will never become an olympic sport - too rude. Plus dwarves have short tempers, I dont think they'd stand for it.
Any drug that boosts brain activity.
Thats the dumbest thing I've ever heard.
guys, your are talking about shit. That's sticky shit. I would rather be a farmer but clean. Although farmers are heavy wine/beer drinkers themselves. How about religion? O:P
The US ought to declare the olympics an illegal sports cartel and ban advertisers from doing business with them. See how long the olympics lasts without the US dollar.
