Mexico.

So would you look at this...  I just finished watching the soccer match that will take Mexico towards the gold medal.  I have not been watching the Olympics.  Normally I would be extremely excited because I love watching a few sports that are out of the ordinary.  But this year I am just not that excited.  I blame it on a number of factors, but I'll begin with the worst one.  The fucking summer games are in London.  I don't have a problem with London because I've never been there, but if it's raining more than 50% of the time, the idea of "summer" should be reevaluated for the next Olympics.  A more tropical feel would make these times a little more festive.  The second thing that bothers me is mother fucking NBC and the times they cover the events.  I love watching live action sports and personally do not want to watch things that have already happened.  Because of this, I have just been skipping all of the events and choosing to go to the gym instead. And the third thing are the athletes.  I just don't know any of them and I never got a chance to get to know them before hand.  Plus the advertising was completely awful.  I didn't even know the Olympics were coming on when they did and the only way I knew is because it's the two year mark for the world cup (every two years I know there's an important event, wither Olympics or World Cup).  So I am not in the best of spirits to watch the Olympics.

But some has changed and that was because of Mexico.  I am a big soccer fan and my favorite team is always Mexican or has a Mexican in it.  Their sub-21 team has been unstoppable during the Olympics and have actually dominated their sport for quite some time.  Now they have a chance to win a gold medal, and although I'll be somewhat of a hypocrite saying I'm excited, I am not because anything that has the Mexican soccer team winning is always exciting in my books.  But this is something to be excited for because Mexico just performs so awfully in the Olympics that this is the one chance they may have at winning a gold medal, and to do it with the most popular, greatest sport out there would just be amazing.

I tried looking for highlights, but nothing, so I'll just post the national anthem.
