I'm sure we're all sorry that the world's best target shooters don't impress you. Unfortunately, no one took you into consideration when arranging the Olympics.
The world's best target shooters under a very specific and particular set of circumstances, usually indoors. It's like you're trying to insult me for not being impressed at the driving skills of the world's best indoor go-kart racers.
No, I'm trying to suggest that if you don't like it, don't watch it. What's the point in telling everyone why Olympic athletes don't impress you?
I didn't watch it, but I did run across some bullshit on the Internet implying that the Chinese dominating ping pong somehow means the US can't compete at Tennis.
And because of that you decide to dunk on a bunch of athletes?
Yeah, absolutely. They're the world's best Candy Land players while we're playing Catan or some shit over here.
And I suppose you'd do much better than any of them.
I'm not going to win a cup stacking competition anytime soon either, but that doesn't mean I have to take it seriously as a sport and respect the competitors.
You have no respect for people with skills you don't have? Quite arrogant of you.
