Just when there was little hope of an Olympic miracle, along came Paraguay.
Turned off by synchronized diving and poor judging and a hair’s breath away from playing online majong, this viewer suddenly was captivated by the javeline competition.
It’s hard to describe the draw, but it was immediate and powerful. Paraguay, in particular, was ready to take on the big boys.
Paraguay’s Leryn Franco carries the javeline for Paraguay, we carry the torch for her.
Go Paraguay!
It gives one a feeling of confidence to so easily pick up interests in new sports, something in which I take pride.
Until last year, I was no fan of Indy racing. But that changed.
Kind of like a couple of years ago when I suddenly developed an interest in tennis.
Beach volleyball is a real possibility for 2012.
You might want to check out the soccer team. That is a avenue to explore. They are very sporting.
