Only in swimwear. Mizuno is all over the uniforms and gear of numerous national teams in a slew of different sports. Same with Asics...

Don't want to be callous, but does she can't really think that her mother's still alive. I don't know how old her mother was when they were abducted 30 years ago but assuming she was at least 20 when she had her daughter wouldn't she be easily pushing 100 by…

I hope that wasn't meant for me because I wasn't a part of any of that. Sorry but you're preaching to the choir. Like you I feel that ALL of the competitors should be congratulated and their accomplishments respected. That is precisely why I took offense to ExPrinceska's ridiculous…

Why you're coming to this Russian woman's defense is beyond me. She first praised Kitajima and the French swimmers' performances because she finds them attractive then dismisses the other swimmers' victories as suspicious and tainted. Did she really have to use the word 'cheated' for you to get her…

This discussion should be not about me, but about the swimmers. I respect all the swimmers but sometimes I doubt about all these records.

And another thing. It's damn right rude and unsportsmanlike yourself to dismiss these Olympic and world records as results of cheating.

The guys in Harajuku a while back were playing Godzilla theme music while driving around. I don't think Godzilla is a nationalist. But I did truly enjoy the humor of right wing guys looking so serious while Godzilla theme music played. Maybe the most vivid example of just how…
