      Wow handball has gotten a lot more viscous since I played in in High school gym class. This is the second picture I have seen of women choking each other during this Olympics

        Gee Cristina and Wane I don't know it took me maybe 5 seconds to find the picture of Sweden's Johanna Ahlm wrapping her hands around Norway's Kristine Lunde-Borgersen neck during an Handball competition. But i guess since that is one white woman choking another white woman that is just part of the game. Since the picture above shows the same situation, but with a black woman, its now somehow sinister and racial. Like I said take your pity party someplace else.

        Kaley: When did handball become viscous? Have the particle dynamics changed appreciably to affect viscosity of the FLUID KNOWN AS HANDBALL!?!? TELL ME!!!

        Jeff is a retard with no life... you probably spent 30 mins writing your lame post. You seem to know more ghetto slang then the person you were writing about. The crazy thing is that Ashanti was defending the White woman.

      I'm really confused. What the hell does challenging mean, and why is this woman being strangled?

      If the guy in photo #2 won gold, I take it his opponent either won platinum or went to prison for the fight.

      Its a pirate attack. Did the ref catch that??? I can teach moves that would put the pirate down for the rest of the game.

      Am I mistaken or is Marcelina of Angolia, choking Marie Gerbron of Britain, or are my eyes deceiving me? If this is so...was she disqualified from all procedures? Please clarify, for although I did watch a lot of the olympic coverage, I totally missed anything regarding this picture....thanks!
