Ok I'm pissed off.
I turn my tv on to see Michelle Timms sitting next to that dickhead Tony Squires, "and we go to our commentators Andrew Gaze and Basil Zemplas" WHY? WHY THE FUCK DID THESE MORONS GET THE JOB?? They're the worst commentators I've ever seen while Michelle Timms has been fantastic, this is fucked
Edit: According to Basil we've got "Penny Jackson" out on the court.

lol the commentators r gay.
michelle tims looks so different from when i last saw her on tv when she played in wnba
Sun Aug 29, 2004 12:04 am
Yeah she's beefed up a bit, lesbo style
29-26 at half time.
Basil's commentating in the 4th quarter of the Brazil/Russia bronze medal game and just mentioned there's a 7ft tall woman out there playing... I've seen Russia play 3 times on TV and with the more respectable commentary of Michelle Timms and that other bloke, they said she was 6'8. Could it really hurt them to get the information right?

thats channel 7 commentators for you they only really know about rugby and tennis

"Lisa Leslie hits a nice forehand into the backcourt but is tackled 10 metres out from the hoop"
Note to Channel 7: NEVER show slow motion replay close ups of Suzy Batkovic

The refereeing in this match has been absolutely abysmal. Almost as bad as Batkovic's defense.
Sun Aug 29, 2004 12:40 am
4sho and these refs suspose to be professionals surely not they are as bad as hte brisbane boys college refs today during gps game fuckin washed
Sun Aug 29, 2004 12:49 am
Who's that ugly bitch with the corn rows and the massive lips? Johnson or something. She pisses me off, I wish Batkovic would use some of that lard to knock her arrogant ass out.
Oh, and the only towels Taurasi should be throwing are the bath towels after she's out of the shower and on my bed.
On a sidenote, 1:40 to go and we're down 9
Sun Aug 29, 2004 12:57 am
well theres a piss off fuckin ugly mole with big lips havin a cry coz she realized her lips were stolen from jay z
Sun Aug 29, 2004 12:59 am
just when i thought the reffing wouldn't get any worse in this tournament.
the worst call in the whole tournament though was Italy vs Lithuania, where the Italian big man was standing near the hoop, gets clearly fouled, and they call the foul on him
anyways, that Aus PG sucks ass, she got schooled big time by Johnson
Jackson failed to show up which is strange for a 'superstar' considering the magnitude of the game
the commentary was the most biased ive ever heard, and if bazil ever says the word "uncharactaristically" when a player misses a FT i'm gonna throw a birck at my TV
Sun Aug 29, 2004 1:01 am
well theres a piss off fuckin ugly mole with big lips havin a cry coz she realized her lips were stolen from jay z
Nah wasn't her, although that was a sight I could've done without seeing. It was Johnson, the little Allen Iverson wannabe. Annoying whores.
Sun Aug 29, 2004 1:06 am
lol tru tru
Sun Aug 29, 2004 1:12 am
well, those 'whores' can sure as hell play
Sun Aug 29, 2004 1:14 am
Our 'whores' are better. If they were Italian you wouldn't care. Actually if they were Italian they'd be alot better to look at.
Sun Aug 29, 2004 1:23 am
ours, theres....a whores a whores

The commentary was well up to the usual standard. Plenty of Basil kissing Gaze's arse, Gaze showing frustrating bias and every move Australia made was a good one. I've said it before and I'll say it again: they could stand at midcourt and fling the ball up into the audience, and it would be a "good move, smart play".
My personal favourite was after some particularly stomach-lurching butt-kissing when Basil asked Gaze what Australia need to do to win the game. Gaze's speech basically said "Australia needs to outscore the USA before the game ends" only in a great many more words. I'm starting to see why the Boomers have come up short in the clutch in years gone by.
Plenty of questionable calls, but the Opals didn't play their best, but the final result really doesn't say enough about their outstanding performance during the tournament and indeed the way they managed to stay close for most of the game. However, when the going got tough they started launching too many threes, not unlike their Boomer counterparts.
Still, I think they should be proud of their performance. Along with the USA, they were way above the rest of the tournament. 7-1 and the silver medals are accomplishments that will be vastly underrated. Congratulations to the USA, but congratulations to the Opals for their performance throughout the tournament. Once again, they've put the Boomers to shame.

At least the refereeing was consistent - consistently bad that is. I can't believe it. SO many bad calls... ball comes off USA, USA ball! Penny Taylor goes on a little run and scores on a driving layup, un-touched as she completes the play, they call a foul.
Lauren Jackson chocked.
Tina Thompson has the biggest lips I've ever seen, and it doesn't help with that shade of lipstick she wears. I still have some footage on tape from the WNBA's first season, with Tina Thompson on it playing for Houston. Same big ass lips, same lipstick. Damn she really killed the aussies though.
Did I mention LJ chocked?
Anybody who mentions fucking anybody on team USA's roster... you've gotta be kidding me! You may as well take Michelle Tims! Careful though she might want to take the role of the man and pump you with the strap on.
Oh, and well done on the victory team USA. If only more teams who are down in close games would just remain calm and run a fuckin set play.

lol @strap on she'll use it like she would pistol whip someone

Man- no hot chicks on the court!

Worse- that game killed my eyes... that huge chick... Batkovic??? damn man...she mentally scarred me for life!
and damn Gaze... Basil asks, "How we gonna win?"
Gaze says, "I'm sure Aus can score 3 threes now..."
1 minute later, "I'm not sure why but Aus aren';t attempting any long shots..."
