Mubarak Questions Egypt’s Olympic Failure
By Wyatt Earp | August 26, 2008
I swear, we should hold the Olympics every year. It apparently brings out the crazies.
CAIRO – Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak on Monday demanded to know why his country’s athletes failed to win more than a single bronze medal at the Olympics in China, the official MENA agency reported.
Wow, and you thought people were mad that Alicia Sacramone got screwed over?
The 80-year-old ruler “ordered the formation of a fact-finding committee to assess the bad performance of the Egyptian mission to the Beijing Olympic Games that wrapped up on Sunday,” MENA reported.
I’ll save you some time: your athletes sucked ass. Any other questions?
“The committee will be in charge of determining who is responsible for the Egyptian mission’s bad performance and calling them into account. (H/T – AFP)
Dude, it’s only a bunch of stupid games. Who cares? Maybe this utter FAIL will force Egypt into a Chinese model, where the athletes and/or their families are killed if they don’t bring home the gold. I have to admit that I look forward to seeing that policy!

This guy has inspired me right off the couch. I will be lobbying my reps to form a fact finding mission to determine why America doesn’t have any pyramids.

That’s just funny right there. Moslems crying cause they didn’t win anything. Cry me a river. Maybe they’ll now join the real world and start training…Nah, too simple by half.

Problem is they probably have been killing people for losing contest over there. At least I wouldn’t be surprised if they did. My guess is that a thousand years of such a policy would guarantee that all your athletic stock died out, as even the best athletes are going to lose now and then.
