    Athens 2004

    So our Greek brothers are hosting the olympics this year. Lets hope we do good in a close land. Because i dont know what happened in 2000, whether Sydney was too far away or too hot or something wrong with the water but our athletes were having some trouble. 1 bronze medal? cmon! what is that. meanwhile Azerbaijan gets 2 gold 1 bronze, and Georgia gets 6 bronze! we should be manhandling them. ok so if Armenia doesnt get at least 1 gold 2 silver and 3 bronze this year im moving to Turkey! no just kidding.

    But anyway. arent the olympics really cool?! I love the whole thing its amazing the spirit, the charm, watching Armenia coming down the opening parade, hoping for glory. Its something i always look forward to and its almost here. Do you guys think Armenia will ever host the olympics?

      Armenia hosting the Olympics? It might......someday...Don't hold your breath until then though. It's always been a dream of mine.

      I love the Olympics: watching the Armenians marching behind the flag, and getting all happy and nervous, and analyzing what they are wearing, and getting happy again that they're wearing tasteful clothing . I also love seeing struggling nations coming in with their 2-3 athletes (like Afghanistan, yevayln). And the exhiliration when an Armenian wins an event and you hear the anthem playing (though I still think we should go back to the Soviet Armenian anthem, mais bon). Good times indeed.

      I'm hoping for 5-7 medals, with at least 2 golds in there. I was quite disappointed in Sydney, and we can do better than that. 16 Armenians have qualified as of now...

      And I will go crazy if I see Armen Nazaryan winning gold for Bulgaria again.....or Benjamin Varounian for France....akh...

          What channel do you guys watch it on. Is there a way to find where they are showing everything or what channel is showing what competition? because so far i have only seen one Armenian competing and that was a wrestler whos name i forget who lost to Rudolf Gardner who then went on to win the gold.

            I haven't seen much either. A few boxing games here and there. Will Sargis be playing tennis?

              Ohhh so exciting. We need a good Armenian basketball team, and futbal. Then everyone would be like ooo look at those Armenians balling up the world, and we'd have flags waving woohoo. Ok ill stop now.
