Please just watch a waterpolo game. Its such a freaking great sport and its so underrated. Moved from hungary to sweden and literally nobody plays here... Id be happier if it was the hungarian womens team that got three golds in a row but even if its the US its a huge achievement. Im actually happy that the french put together a great team because the youth in france can see this amazing sport. Tho that loss in Doha hurt...
All right, your enthusiasm has convinced me. I don't know anything about water polo, but I'll look up a game on YouTube. Time to broaden my horizons!
Ah, so it's basically soccer, using hands instead of feet, while swimming. Looks like it would be a fun casual sport to play with friends and family (but in a much smaller pool lol).
As long as you can stand on the bottom instead of treading, it can be casual & fun. Otherwise you need to be in incredible shape or have gills to have a chance.
I remember there being tube polo as an intramural sport at my university. I never played but it's another option to avoid mostly just drowning the whole time.
Do the horses enjoy it tho
Doubt it. The swim caps mush their ears down.
As someone who used to play WP, stopped in high school and after 6 years met with some old teammates to play one „casual“ game…twas very exhausting and not much fun
Wouldnt call it casual...
As someone who played a bit in high school: it’s basically competitive drowning. As in, you’re treading water with only your legs because ball/passing/blocking, and you get in a scrum, and you basically try to drown the other guy while he tries to drown you. It’s pretty crazy, and if you understand what’s going on, it’s kinda wild to watch, especially at the professional/olympic level. It can get pretty spicy.
Yeaaaaah, boiiiiii!
They're girls, bro
Furor might be too, sibling.
Lol

And then there was the time the match wasn’t really about the match.
Yeah that match is kinda a national pride in hungary. We beat the whole ass USSR without help. And they played dirty as hell.
How the hell is flavor flav still alive
Once you journey to flavor town you’re here forever. Shhhh. It’s ok, just put this wicked sick shirt on.
I was certain he was dead until this post. Literally.
You may be thinking of Eazy E.
It's Coolio.
I hope this spreads to all Olympic sports so our teams each get a hype man (or lady), preferably an old school rap artist.
lol that article is wonderful. Put a smile on my face :)
That's totally bizarre. Every phrase in that headline is a plot twist.
"Flavor Flav is a swiftie" - Flavor Flav. This article just keeps hitting.
Are you guys shooting your olympic teams too?!?!?
I too volunteer as
tributehypeman for the three-time defending Olympic champion U.S. women's water polo teamfamous for not doing anything
Just look at how tame his clocks have become, hell be just on a pocket watch soon
Actually much more in line with early PE. They got exaggerated and comical for a while though

Can’t see Chuck’s clock on the album cover but it’s similar in size to what Flav is wearing on the album cover.
Flav is a fun guy, I’ll never forget seeing Public Enemy backed by the Roots doing the entirety of It Takes a Nation of Millions live.
But he also got into a fight with Chuck D over Chuck’s endorsement of Bernie, which I never understood.
