Yeah, I don't know why they awarded the 2028 games to the US.
Most Americans don't give a shit so they should have given it to a country which appreciates it.

It's had to cheer for your nation when you feel the athletes are not from your tribe, but some aliens who hate the country you hold dear.
There's loads of them. Synchronised swimming and dressage are a couple of the worst ones.C-Mag wrote: Sun Jul 25, 2021 6:11 pmAgreed.Montegriffo wrote: Sun Jul 25, 2021 6:05 pm I wouldn't have any sports that can't be measured with a stopwatch, tape measure or some other kind of objective measurement.
If you need a panel of judges to decide who wins it's more of an art than a sport IMO.
Gymnastics and Figure Skating a dog shows.

any institution that caves to the Woke is lost to the Communists, so burn it to the ground
I don't know if female gymnastics are still 13 year old girls, but I always thought that whole thing was a little creepy.Montegriffo wrote: Sun Jul 25, 2021 6:21 pm There's loads of them. Synchronised swimming and dressage are a couple of the worst ones.
The Olympic motto is faster, higher, stronger.
There's no mention of prettier, sleeker, more stylish.

Go Woke, Go Broke is a great thing. Totally voluntary, completely unorganized, but people passionately pull support from anyone even flirting with the woke. I love it.
No, the minimum age for Olympic gymnasts has been 16 since 1997.C-Mag wrote: Sun Jul 25, 2021 6:25 pmI don't know if female gymnastics are still 13 year old girls, but I always thought that whole thing was a little creepy.Montegriffo wrote: Sun Jul 25, 2021 6:21 pm There's loads of them.

I was a huge American Football fan from age 6. But I can't even watch it anymore. I might watch some highlights now and then, but the product is dead to me.
BONUS I got back a lot of time to do more meaningful things.
