Dowbrigade

As
anyone who has dated a gymnast can testify, they are special.
Apart from the benefits of young healthy bodies, they have a flexibility
and physical awareness which make relationships adventures.

We remember
one girl in particular, a rhythmic gymnast at that, who did that
thing where she arched her back and brought her hips around and over
her head! Needless to say, those who have not experienced this
phenomena are often fascinated by it.

Therefore our surprise at the gymnastic bombshell dropped
by the NBC announcer at the women’s team event the other night, who nonchalantly
let drop the sextraordinary news that in 2002 two members of the Rumanian
team had been dropped for filming a naked gymnastics video for some Japanese
filmmakers who paid them $40,000 each, was not so much that this had
taken place as that word of it had leaked out on world-wide television
in the
middle of the Olympic games.

The fact that there is a market for this kind of smut
is obvious and the reason gymnastics will never be eliminated from the
Games, and the fact that these Rumanian babes took the dough for the
show merely answers the question of what these driven, world class athletes
are going to do once they grow breasts, given that they have not had
time to go to school or learn to cook during their privileged/deprived
childhoods.

Of course, your indefatigable correspondent immediately
lit out on the digital trail of this mysterious naked gymnastics video.  Thanks
to industry resource Fleshbot
we discovered plenty of free
pics of the women on the sites selling the complete video, including
one that has a free
19 second mpeg sample (5 mg).

It is hard to justify the Romanian decision to kick
them off the team.  As the media have repeatedly reminded us, the
original Olympics were an all-nude affair. The Japanese filmmakers were
obviously just Olympic purists hoping to resuscitate some of the original
traditions of the Games.
