And other revelations for a Rio Pro cynic!
I don’t know when or how since I have been NOT following the contest in Brazil but look at the world’s oldest 36-year flying! I clicked on this morning and caught him in the water being combo’d be Adriano de Souza. The frozen picture advertising the heat was not a bird, not a plane but Joel Parkinson pretending he was a bird or a plane.
And it made me wonder what else I’ve missed from Rio? Are there storylines unfolding that matter? Is the non-Pottz South African in the booth really named Gigs or is it a nickname?
The contest this morning, anyhow, has been fun and my own negativity toward the Brazilian event has abated a touch. Yago Dora chewing though champion after champion, Jordy and Owen both totally failing when it mattered, Adriano de Souza showing the world that the li’l plumber is still a title threat. Etc.
It’s got all the drama a boy could hope for and isn’t even finished yet!
Full recap soon but until then, when did Joel Parkinson do this air?

I’m sorry I don’t quite have the “jackson pollock” like approach to writing as our dear Chas has.
Anyone see Blakey give Adriano the 50k whisper to get his RB hat off?
It happened in Round 1, brah…
Parko’s analysis of it post heat in competitors’ area: “Yeah, had a good little sesh, with the red rashie on. Got a little chuube and thought I’d go progresso… got an eight-five. Thanks, mates… cheehs”
P.S. That quote is definitely NOT made up…
Like Joel, I too go Progresso on occasion!

Put your hand up if you had the plumber, Dory, Ace and Wilko in your fantasy team.
