"If Michael Phelps was a nation"

[London_Calling]

etc, etc, bleh, ad fucking nauseum.


How about: If Michael Phelps was a nation, GB would be second in the medals table.


/continues daft, sycophantic BBC nose dribble terms

 

[JTG]

If Chris Hoy was a nation

If Brad Wiggins was a nation

etc etc etc

They're not so who fucking cares

 

[strung out]

they've invited us to design his own national flag. i think mauvais could make a good effort

 

[TrippyLondoner]

I'm also getting sick of hearing them say that. A better line is 'if phelps wasn't in the USA team, GB would be 2nd'

 

[strung out]

if phelps was a nation he'd be ripe for a good invasion, some air strikes and jolly good pillaging

fucking pointless though. He is in the US team so why make the point?

If Phelps was a nation would he be a member of the Axis of Evil or the coalition of the willing?

 

[TrippyLondoner]

Yeah i agree its pointless, just sounds better than the line they're giving.

If the GB cycling team were a blamange, if the two GB Rebecca's were from Alpha Centuria . . .

If Phelps was a nation the US would invade him.

[JTG]

If Michael Phelps was made Pope, the Vatican would be seventh

 

[dilute micro]

If Phelps was a nation he'd not have veto power at the UN.

 

[London_Calling]

Not to be a pedant (and I'm not really in a position to be one) shouldn't it be were ?

 

[Augie March]

Weren't they suggseting that viewers should send in flag designs for this mythical Phelps nation?

I wonder if they could get caught out again, like they did with that London 2012 logo that was inspired by a certain infamous meme...

 

[Badgers]

He would be Holland

 

[butchersapron]

...and aus would drop to 13th in the medal tale, so i support the proposal.

It seems if Phelps was a nation he'd be Holland.Pics of him all over the papers today with a bong

It was entertaining this morning watching the news. Someone was outraged because no one was outraged by his marjuana use.

He's 23, FFS. Let him be 23.

 

[London_Calling]

I was disappointed he apologised. Would have preferred "Yep, don't mind a hit now and then. I fucking deserve it."

 

[skunkboy69]

Aye.It's not exactly performance enhancing
