Let's start with an explanation for those not subject to her Majesty's rule... The Commonwealth Games (Comm Game) are like the Olympics but just for Commonwealth countries...you Americans can't play because you had a war and kicked the POM's out.. But the Sth Africans can...we're not sure why.. In the olden days it was called the Empire Games but WWII or George Lucas made us change that name. Its held every 4 years and this year its in Brisbane, QLD... Or Brisvegas. Some of the sports are different cos well we know how awesome they are but noone else had caught on. Oh and Great Brittain does not compete, the 4 countries that make up Great Brittain compete as themselves so there are no union jacks.. For some interesting history, the last time the comm games were in Brissy (aka Brisvegas) the USA sent a team because they had boycotted the 1980 Moscow Olympics but that was one off, cold war special offer... Ya won frickin everything so we didn't ask ya back. Now we've caught the Sepos up... Let's have at it... Sledge or brag to ts hearts content.
