The Iranian Fundamentalist Self-Flagulation Team has a good chance at the Gold this year. Posted by: mikey at April 29, 2003 09:09 AMand don't forget my favorite event, the javelin catch. Posted by: Darth Chef at April 29, 2003 10:07 AMDon't forget he newly added bomblet kick. I expect Ooglay to win that one. He can kick the bull farther than anyone I have ever heard before. Posted by: Mike S at April 29, 2003 10:28 AMAnd here to light the symbolic fuze, is Abdul ibn Klghbrkzgh setting off his C-4 vest..... Posted by: some random guy at April 29, 2003 11:47 AMTalk about your "agony of defeat". Posted by: twalsh at April 29, 2003 12:03 PMRemember, style counts for much with the judges and there's a fine art to the yelling of "Allah akbar - god is great!" Posted by: thegreatcosmicjoke at April 29, 2003 12:33 PMHere he goes, he is all psyched up. He is now entering the crucial strategy area of suicide bomb placement. If he is off by even a few feet it could mean the difference between 2 dead and 20. He is now walking through the schoolchildren and police, WOOOOWW! give him 25 style points for looking so calm and not drawing attention to himeself. Waiiiit, nooo waiiiitt, here he goes he is now in position .......BOOOOOMMMMM! A new record! He just got 23 kills with one blast! "It is all in the bomb making brent. He loaded a good amount of C-4 into that vest and expertly packed it with ball bearings and nails for maximum kill effect. You have to give him extra points for having his head land into the crowd, I think they are still wrestling for that trophy." The Target Corporation, of Minneapolis, MN has graciously agreed to provide free T-shirts (with company logo on the back) to all participants. Posted by: tired of whiners at April 29, 2003 01:14 PMScott, D**m funny!! The Iraqi C4 team was disqualified when the IMG commission discovered a conspiracy between the Russian, French and German judges to award the gold to Iraq in exchange for Iraqi awarding the gold in hijacking to the Libyan team. Krashum-en-Burnem, spokesman for the IMG stated ìwe will not tolerate this treachery among member nations of the IMG as we are all united in the mutual destruction of infidelsî. Posted by: Pooke at April 29, 2003 01:40 PMand the gold medal winner of the homicide bomb event was disqualified when, after post-event testing, traces of Yassir Arafart DNA were found in what remained of his large intestine. Posted by: tom at April 29, 2003 02:38 PMaghhhh, yuck Tom, but very funny I must say Posted by: Justin at April 29, 2003 02:56 PMI believe that the Iraqi Republican Guard Syncronized Surrender Team is training in the Cirac Belly Crawl Event as well. They only won a bronze in 1991 since Chirac was not in a posiiton to model for them at that time. Posted by: Mikey at April 29, 2003 03:41 PMLouis Farakhan (sp?) volunteered to judge but was immediately vetoed by the French judge. Ahhh.... Look! There goes another not-so-smart bomb! And here we have the champion, he's being shoveled up by the awards committee... This reminds me of the Monty (Python) 'Upperclass Twit of the Year' contest. Posted by: Ken Stein at April 29, 2003 05:03 PMOne of the new exciting events this year is the suicide attack against a brigade of the 3rd Army battalion group. The only problem is that all the contestants were eliminated in the preliminary rounds. Posted by: lafforcry at April 29, 2003 07:30 PMOf course the Lifetime Achievement award will go to the person who successfully talked more gullable fools into killing themselves. "Get your virgins right here!" And an Olympics for the Christians up Northern Ireland, who arenít worried about martyrdom! "And there's the whistle! At the half, it's Lions - 14, and Christians - 0. And now a word form our sponsor..."
I agree with lafforcry, those not to bright idiots were attacked the 3rd army with pickups/suv's and automatic weapons should win. I saw the footage of that and what morons. Watching our soldiers mincemeat those vehicles with their 20mm cannons left me in amazement and happy that those genes are no longer in the gene pool (who needs chlorine when you have a howitzer!) Posted by: Justin at April 30, 2003 11:48 AMThis just in: The Retired Human Shields will be a part of the opening ceremonies. They will lie on the track while bulldozers run them down as they shout "Stop! Stop!" Posted by: mikey at April 30, 2003 12:21 PMMikey, Oooo! Ooooo!(wave hand in the air) Can I drive? Please? THis just in from Parker Brothers! The suicide bomber board-game: Splategories! Ages 6 and up, batteries and C-4 not included. Don't forget the "bobbing for handgrenades" competition. Posted by: john dates at April 30, 2003 11:04 PMHarden Stuhl Reports: Scrapple Face Cub Reporter...Developing.... Islamic Martyr players on Olympic teams will face out-of-competition, "random suicide paraphernalia" tests under UN resolution 1589 that is sponsored by France and Germany. Under "UN" Resolution number 1589,Hans Blix and his team of specialists will begin "random suicide paraphernalia" testing ,for the 2004 Islamic Martyr Games starting July 1. Resolution 1589, which applies to Martyrs in all Olympic sports, allows Hans Blix and his team of random "suicide paraphernalia" testers to show up unannounced at a martyrs house at any time to ask for a sample. Hans Blix commented to this reporter, "Although there is obvious evidence of suicide paraphernalia at the olympics,we may very well need extra time to verify what it is, especially if they detonate it while we are standing next to them."
